Weiryana

Misogynism has been thrown over and the social life of Weir House has been resumed, it was misogynism which sent the football team to Christchurch to play Rolleston House, but we owe their return by the right boat to the Goddess of Chance. The football team returned home victorious by 12-6, and universal opinion has it that the tactical genius and coaching ability of Fitz was responsible for the win.

During the month the recreation room was opened. A small function was held, and Pres. H. Richard Wild, in a few words, thanked the Management Committee for all they had done. During the course of the evening Mr. Registrar Robison towled up the Weir House tinbaum, F. J. B. Donovan. The Registrar apologised, and said that he was not as good now as he used to be. Since the opening the table has received constant attention, although we regret the action of the Hockey Club which, after mono-polising the table for one and a half hours, had the consummate impertinence to give us sixpence. This is a bad thing.

On Friday, the 22nd. instant, the first dance of the season was held, and despite the endeavours of the usual Despoilers decorations were duly erected. Everyone seemed to enjoy himself and/or herself, and we fear that the failure of our representatives in the Plunket Medal is due solely to the excellence of the dance.
