Another Fancy Dress Party

FANCY dress parties seem to be increasing in popularity as the New Year grows older. The dance given by the sisters and nurses at the Victoria Nurses Home last week was a delightful affair, and positive proof that the medical profession are not lacking in originality of ideas. Miss M. Johnstone, sister in charge of the home, received the guests, some of whom she had a good deal of difficulty in recognizing. A moustache here, a little more eyebrow there, and a hectic spot of color somewhere else, will transform the most familiar face. Amongst those present were Sir Victor Sassoon, Brigadier General E. B. Macnaghten and Miss Audrey Macnaghten, Mr and Mrs W. P. Lambe, Dr. E. Bowen, Dr and Mrs T. B. Dunn, Dr W. K. Dunscombe, Dr D. L. Marsh, no less than three doctors and many others.
