THE "INDUSTRIAL REVUE."
TO THE IDITOB 0» THB PBISS. " Sir, —Iu your report of the Manufacturers' Association meeting, held last night, you represent Mr Penys Hoare as saying the revue under discussion contained material unfit for school children. As there is not even a profane word or immoral suggestion contained in the whole script, I would be pleased if you would issue a correction. .What Mr Denys Hoare referred to was that the language was a little too technical to be fit for school children. — Yours, etc., , n. T. DALY. . October '2oth. • TO. IITS EPITO3 or 133 PBJSS. Sir,—l wish to take strong exception to that portion of news item under the heading "A Revue with a Moral" relatiug to Mr Daly's play, .in which ■ you state that there are some parts not hi for presentation to school children. This not only conveys a wrong impression, but is grossly unfair.- Having read the whole of the script through, I can say . there is not one part to which exception could be taken. • Knowing the importance of the play, and the reasons for which it is written, I trust that you will see that matters are put right, _ and that this stigma is removed. —Yours, etc., H. WOOFF. October 20th. [lf our correspondent looks again at* our news item, he will see that it was a report of a discussion, by the .Canterbury Manufacturers' Association, and that the portion to which he takes exception was a remaTk made by the secretary. As the speaker himself has not complained of our report, we must .' suppose ; that it was fair and ac-' curate. We are however, glad to give our correspondent an opportunity of explaining that there is nothing in the play to which exception " can be taken on moral grounds.—Ed., The Press.]
