ENTERTAINMENTS.

Te Koa Concert Party

TO-NIGHT

By notices lately appearing in the Times readers will have noted that the Te Koa Concert Company, which gives a concert at Pukekohe to-night, comes with a reputation earned in many to>vns and cities. Pukekohe is indeed tortunate in that this versatile troupe is visiting the town, and no one who appreciates really good popular entertainment should miss them. Apart from the intrinsic merit of the various performers in song, music, and jest, they ars refreshingly original—something different from the old stereotyped fare dished up with monotonous repetition. For good singing, musicianly instrumental work, and rollicking yet keen wit and humour, thej]Te Koas can hold their own. To-night, at the Premier Hall, they will prove their merit.
