Notes about Beryl Jaunita Munro

BIRTHDAY PARTY.
HAPPY GATHERING AT SPRINGVALE.
On Thursday last a very enjoyable evening was spent by the Springvale settlers in Mr E. Kelliher's woolshed. The occasion was the 21st. birthday of a popular young lady, Miss Beryl Munro. The shed was tastefully decorated by the ladies of the district, who also took over all responsibility for the excellent supper. Dancing and games passed the evening very pleasantly until eleven, when the guests sat down to a typical Springvale supper—in other words an unsurpassable one. After the loyal toast had been honoured, Miss Munro's health was proposed by Mr A. Marslin. Mr Munro, senr., and Miss Munro responded, both thanking everyone for their good wishes.
Miss Munro, who returns to Queenstown to-day (Wednesday) was the recipient of a large number of handsome presents, a tribute to her undoubted popularity. During the evening musical items were tendered by Misses Betty Lewis and Valmai Munro.
In the competitions, Mrs S. Lewis and Mrs V. Kelliher tied, while Mr J. Rattray tied with Mr J. O'Sullivan. In the draw off, Mrs Kelliher and Mr Rattray were the winners.
