WELCOME HOME.

At the social held at the Catholic school hall on Tuesday night in aid of St. Francis Xavier's Tennis Club opportunity was taken to welcome home Nurse Lenore Jurd and Soldiers W.Byrnes, R. Johnston, J. Bloomfield. J. Smith, A. Smith, and Butterworth, and also to make a presentation to Nurse. Jurd.  The Rev. Father Lloyd, in welcoming the returned heroes, said they all rejoiced to have them back again safe and sound. As a Catholic priest, it was pleasing to him to know that four out of the six returned men on the stage that night were Catholics. It was also very pleasing to him to be able to state that of the Catholic population of Australia, the Catholics had contributed man for man to the firing line. With reference to Nurse Jurd, Father Lloyd said that although Nurse Jurd had resided in the district all her life she was practically a stranger to most of those present. Nearly three years ago Nurse Jurd feeling that she would like, in some way, to assist In the great war, offered her services as a nurse. She was accepted, and sent to India, where she remained for a considerable length of time. She afterwards went to Egypt, and later on to England. 'Nurses,' said the rev. gentleman 'are called 'Angels of Mercy,' and an angel of mercy Nurse Jurd proved herself to be as, often tired and weary herself, she went about her duties attending the wounded.'

On behalf of her many friends, Father Lloyd then presented Nurse Jurd with a handsome silver-mounted hairbrush, comb, and hand mirror as a slight token of the esteem in which she was held and to mark the occasion of her safe return. Alderman T. R. Hogan supported Father Lloyd's remarks. Private J. Smith in responding on behalf of himself and his comrades, thanked them for the hearty welcome that had been extended to them. He could assure them they were all very pleased to be home again. 'I am no good at speaking,' said Private Smith,''so if you don't mind I will give you a recitation. And I don't mind telling you that I am not much good at reciting, either.' Private- Smith then recited 'The Australians at Gallipoll, which was greatly appreciated.

Mr. W. Maher responded on behalf of Nurse Jurd, the company sang 'For they aro Jelly good fellows,' and the proceedings closed. Dancing was then resumed.
