Bather Mixed.
[Wanganui Chronicle. The Palmerston people evidently do not believe m dividing the sacted part of a concert from the secular, bnt prefer things mixed. At a recent entertainment there was a remarkable instance of this singular taste for variety, the devotionally pathetic pieces naving screaming comic son^s sandwitched m between m a reaUy striking fashion. For example, we learn that the chorus, " Blest saint m Heaven," was immediately followed by " Over the garden wall," and it is not therefore surprising to hear that " nearly £2 was taken at the door." The wonder is that there was a hall m Palmerston big enough to contain the audience when a programme of this kind was under \r°i^h.
