The following is a specimen of the voluntary tributes received by the management: "At the meeting of the Auckland District Women's Christian Temperance Union, held on Wednesday afternoon, it was unanimously passed that a letter of appreciation be sent to the manager of the Princess Theatre congratulating him on the picture lately staged, entitled, 'The Land We Live In.' It was felt by the mothers present that they could have every confidence in taking their children to see such a picture, which was both charming and educative, and would leave no harmful influence on the vouthful minds. We felt it was right that we should express our appreciation.—N. Dewar, Corresponding Secretary, Auckland District W.CT.U." Mr. J. J. Coady, proprietor of the Lyceum Pictures, is to be connxend?d upon having, after much trouble, secured "The Land We Live In" for screening at Pukekohe. WEDNESDAY.
