The advisability of establishing' a bureau cr hostel in Auckland for the accommodation of girl immigrants, until they are able to secure positions, was discussed briefly at the meeting of the Auckland Industrial Association on Thursday.

However, it was eventually decided to bring the matter before the Government when the association's delegates go to Wellington to attend the conference if industrial associations. The president (Mr. S..J. Harbutt) remarked incidentally that as things stood at present the majority of the immigrants arrived first at Wellington. «'itli the result that Auckland had to l:o content with those that were left over. Irish Folk Song and Madame de Cisneros. It is interesting to hear of Madame de Cisneros that she is extremely fond of Irish songs, and has made a point of collecting, as far as possible, old Irish folk Songs. Few people do not know that Ireland was once famous for its wandering bards, who sang in Gaelic the legends of the countrv and the deeds of the great heroes to the music of the harp. Many oi these have, in the course of centuries, become lost, but Madame de Cisneros has been verv fortunate in meeting with notable success in her search for this music, which embodies the soul of Ireland. It is her intention to include some IrN' songs in one of the programmes, at any rate, for her concerts..
