ST. ANDREW’S NIGHT

ARRANGEMENTS FOR CONCERT. The Saint Andrew Society has established a reputation for that thoroughness in its undertakings which guarantees success. The public can therefore look forward with confidence to a highly-enjoyable entertainment in the St Andrew’s Night Concert to be conducted by the Society at the Opera House on the evening of November 30. Moreover, the society has not altered its policy of making the lowest possible charges for its entertainments. At 2s for reserved and Is for unreserved seats, patrons will get more than value for their money. A Is ticket will admit school pupils to any part of the house. The programme to be presented is a varied one. No Scots concert would be complete without piping and dancing, and there will accordingly be piping items (including a quartette in parts) and exhibitions of scan triubhais and other solo dances, and also reels. Chief’s Piper T. Pickett will head the list of pipers. Among the dancers will be Miss Edna Corlett and a team arranged by Mr Marshal C. Walker. Vocalists will include Mrs Wilfred Andrews, Miss D .Jamieson. Mr K. Macaulay and Mi - Wm C. Mann. A sterling team of actors will perform a short 1 one-act Scots mystery-comedy, under the capable production of Chieftainess Mrs Robt Miller, with Mr John Lawson as stage-manager. It is expected that every patron will receive an artistic souvenir programme as a memento of the occasion.

Altogether the enjoyment of patrons, and the general success of the concert, appear to be assured.
