SUNDAY SCHOOL CONCERT.

The entertainment presented in the Premier Hall on Tuesday evening last by the scholars of the Pukekohe Anglican Church Sunday School in aid of the Sunday School funds attracted a large assembly, the audience testifying by hearty and continuous app'ause to satisfaction with the " bill of fare " provided. The programme was devised by Miss Millicent Taylor and to a large extent was a refreshing departure from the ordinary run of similar entertainments. Some 40 members of the younger generation, ranging from little mites to those in their teens, constituted the performers and it testified to Miss Taylor's able powers of tuiti «n and control that everything went with a swing, free of any obstacle and without the slightest delay. Costuum company songs formed the main part of the programme and the young artistes acquitted themselves to the highest advantage, the tableau of "My New Zealand Home" being particularly brilliant and effective. The operetta " Cinderella " was also staged, the characters being taken by Miss I. Duncan (Cinderella), Misses Molly Asher and Jean Mcirthur (her attendants); Miss V. McDivitt (Prince), Misses Eunice Rollinson and Alicia Cave (Prince's attendants ; Miss Marion Woods (Fairy Godmother) ; and the Misses Grace Lysnar and Myrtle Berriuian (Cinderella's stepsisters) Miscellaneous items were rendered by Miss Jean McArthur (recitation), Miss Muriel Cox (pianoforte solo) and Miss Marion Woods (violin solo). A troupe of boys furnished fun as Nigger Minstrels, and a comedy play entitled " A Domestic Entanglement " wound up the proceedings, the caste including the Alisses I. Duncan, Grace and Muriel Lysnar, M. Taylor, M. Woods and Mavis Browu.
