"PRESENTATION TO PTE. J. TRACEY
A very pleasant social evening was spent in the Olympic Hall recently to allow friends to bid farewell and make a presentation to Mr. J Tracey, who is leaving for the front. Songs were contributed by Messrs. W. Kerr, J. Tracey, D. Butler and G. Ball. A good programme of dances was carried through, Mr. P. Laurence acting as M.C., the music being capably rendered by an orchestra composed of Mr. J. & Miss D. Palmer, Mr. C. & Miss E. Murray, Mr. & Miss Williams, Mr. S. Grieve & Miss M. Biddle. Mr F. A Cooper, M.L.A. in presenting Mr J. Tracey with a Jack Knife, with silver chain attached and a purse of silver, expressed the company's wishes that he might have a safe return home. Mr. Tracey suitably responded, thanking all present for their kindness and said that he would do his duty for his King and his country. The playing of the National Anthem, followed by three hearty cheers for the departing soldier, brought an ending to a most enjoyable evening." - Queensland Times - 12 Oct 1915
