"Dawn had broken, 'and a dark patch ■was seen against the grey sky, which soon resolved itself into the dim forms of tho German battle-cruisers, led by the Seydleitz. . . . There were nine battleships, five- battle-cruisers, seven light cruisers, and 47 destroyers." The picture that will show in a signally graphic manner the way in which these vessels gave themselves up to the Allies on the evermemorable 21st of November last will go down in history as one of the most remarkable episodes of the great world wai will be shown here at the Town Hall on Saturday evening next, under the management of J. and N. Tait, who have secured the sole right of the British Admiralty films for Australia and New Zealand During the evening, Mr. Herbert F. Wood, the popular tenor, will sing "Rule, Britannia" and "There's a Ship That's Bound for Blighty," and Alfred Truda's specially-selected "orchestra will play a. programme of appropriate music.
