This was emphasised by the t fact that some cheese factories that had gone over to bitter had switched b*«k again to cheese. ! The special feature at the Otaki theatre last Saturday night contained | an element of humour which was much . appreciated. Miss Averil Hope’s songs , “June Music,” “Garden of Happi- ) ness,” and “I Passed By Your Window” wore charmingly rendered. ; Though ob viouslv nervous, this young | singer gave most artistic interpretaj lions which called forth generous api plause from the large audience pre- ! sent.
