District WI members enter­ tained Mow members from


Accrington and Downham WIs with an evening of belly dancing demonstrated by Sarah Garrish. Her energetic performance was enhanced by her dazzling and exotic


costumes. The intricate em­ broidery and use of beading make some ofthese costumes


very heavy to wear, but they were lightweight compared with a heavy metal candelabra


on her head! The evening continued


with a buffet supper and members and guests “fish­ ing” for gifts in a pool. The


competition for a fancy button was won by Mrs V. Dugmore


with second place going to Mrs H. Hebden and third place to Mrsl. Price.
