Harrington; hornpipe, Miss Basliam; clog dance, Joan Morris; Russian dance, Joan Read; recitations, Phyllis Manson, Audrey Cook; duo, Miss Beresford's pupils; "Hush, Hush, the Bogy Man," was given by Misses Dreaver, E. and S. Nicholson and V. Robertson; a pretty playette entitled "A Child's Dream of the Fairies" was acted in a creditable manner by the children; musical monologues were given by Miss S. Mowbray and several choruses and dances were rendered by the company. Mr. A. J. StallwOrthy, M.P., was ..: present, and spoke a few "words of thanks.
