Madame Kirkby Lunn, the famous contralto, gave a garden party to about fifty wounded Australian and New Zealand soldiers at her beautiful country house, "The Grange," Chorley Woods, Herts, England. Despite showery weather the soldiers had a most enjoyable time, for Madame Lunn turned her music room into a concert hall for the time being, and here some famous artists sang and played. Mme.Luun herself sang a number of songs, as did also Mr. Robert Radford, baritone. Mr. William Murdock, the Australian pianist, and_ Miss Blanche Tomlin and Mr. Leslie Harriss, two famous entevtainers, also contributed to the programme. Among a large number of guests were Lady Alexander, wife of the famous actor, Mr. and Mrs. Nicholl. of Canterbury, Now Zealand, and Mrs. William Murdoch, who was recently married to the Australian pianist, and Mr. J. Nevin Tait of J. and N. Tait, who made the arrangements for Madame Lunn. The soldiers were driven over to Madame Lunn's house in large brakes from their hospital at Harefield, and when they reluctantly had to leave again, they gava cheers for Madame Kirkby Lunn and the artists who entertained them. The soldiers were cheerful and happy despite their wounds and apparently they enjeyed their outing. Soldiers from almost every State were present, and the modesty of the men concerning their historic deeds was observed by our correspondent. Australasia has every reason to be proud of her brav-e sons, said Madame Lunn when they left.
