Local News: Shawville Lions Club staged a bingo in the theatre last Thursday evening when a crowd of over two hundred and fifty persons competed for the many valuable prizes which were offered. Proceeds from the evenings entertainment will be used to defray expenses of the children’s parties which are to be given to local children during this week.
The most attractive prize of the many being presented was a radio which was won by Mr. Sparling of Shawville. An automatic toaster which was also eagerly played for, was won by Mrs. G. Yach of Ladysmith.
