The piece notes an American style afternoon tea in aid of the Baptist fete held on Saturday with Mrs. Frank Read organizing. Performances by Miss J Nankiveil Miss J Wellington and others, plus a grocery contest won by Mrs N L Wellington. A Centenary Floral Fair followed at Soldiers Memorial Hall in late November with music stalls and games, raise funds about £74. Johnny Roberts of Port Pirie returns to entertain at Centenary Pool. Weather turned damp with mixed crop conditions and brisk wheat carting despite uneven reaping.
