TOWN HALL CONCERTS.
I nas glad to read Mr. Fairburn's letter about concert conditions at the Town Hill. One of the reasons my wife and I have etuei to go to concerts there is the general diMaafort—white walls, glaring lights and nncoßfortable seats —and I am sure there are muj who feel like us. The bent-wood chair of Tow n Hall type is one of the most uncomfortable of seats, especially to a tall person; after a couple of hours the body is so distressed flit the mind is unable to appreciate the beantiM The picture theatres gave a lead In eomfotakk seating long ago. Why the lighting it more frequently softened I do not know. W music should be heard in a dim light. I da not own a wireless set, but I can easily st&nd why a man should choose to "listona by his cosy fireside to music at the Town Ibß rather than go to the hall itself. SURROUNDINGS ARE IMPORTANT.,
