THE LITTLE THEATRE.

FINAL EXHIBITION IN WELLINGTON. To those Wellington people who have not yet visited the Exhibition at Kongotai and to those who have during numerous visits just missed seeing that' won'derftil Model Theatre which is something so different to anything ever seen in New Zealand before, we would remind them

that on no account should they .miss this last opportunity. Nearly 00,000 have been thrilled by this unique creation from Taumnruniii. This Model Theatre with its romantic background Is the culmination of eight years’

work by Mr. 11. C. Harcourt. It is just three years since negotiations for space at Hie Centennial Exhibition were first entered into and if there were some who doubted the wisdom of providing court space to this contribution from tlie country there is not the slightest doubt that it has been instrumental in bringing many people to Wellington purposely to see it. The exacting detail of the building reflects vividly the mind of its creator, a much-travelled man of an inquiring, constructive and analytical mind, able to detect I ho false from the real in men and matters around lii.m. Children have been a life-long interest to him and are largely responsible for the creation of the Theatre. In one matter, however, he does not shine. He cannot play goif—but there, is it not a fact that thousands cannot, although they may say they can?— P.B.A.
