MADAME STRATHEARN'S RECITALS.
After the enthusiastic reception given to Madame Jeseie Strathearn, A.H.A.M., at her recent Auckland recitals, Wellingtonians can look • forward to this lady's visit to the Town Hall here with anticipation of something really good. Madame Stratheam's versatility is remarkable, and her programmes are
"popular" in the best sense of the word. The fact that Madame Strathearn is making this tour on behalf of the very poor of the East End of London will make a strong appeal to the public. She has cancelled six months' professional engagements in order to raise £30,000 for.the famous West Ham Central Miaeion, Barking-road, London. Every Londoner knows of the:splendid work that is done in the worst of London slums by this absolutely unsectarian mission. The old building" in which this great work has been carried on for many years is entirely obsolete, besides which, the various activities of the mission work have completely outgrown- their present accommodation. It is essential that a new building be provided without delay, and it is to this purpose that the proceeds of Madame Stratheam's tour will he devoted. The recitals will be given in the large Town Hall next Saturday, Monday, and Tuesday evenings—the 19th, 21st, and 22nd instants.
