TO HELP TERRACE SCHOOL.

The tickets for the grand concert to be held in the Concert Chamber of the Town Hall to-morrow evening are selling well. The merit of the programme/ including as it does the very best of Wellington's talent, will appeal to all lovers of good'music—quite apart from the object of the concert. -To provide three tennis courts for the girls of the Terrace School, much concrete walling and excavation work had to be undertaken, and by a direct appeal to parents and to the old boys, £120 was raised. For asphalting and fencing £80 more is needed. To this end, Mr. H. F. Wood has secured the sympathetic help of artists whose excellence should fill the Concert Chamber on Thursday evening, arid enable the pupils of. the Terrace School to reach the £200 goal at -which they aim. The Department Has promised a£l for £1 subsidy. The girls of Standard VI., under the tuition of the Misses Jones and G. Thorpe, home science instructresses, have made a quantity of sweets which they intend to sell in dainty baskets at the concert to-morrow evening. It only remains for the public to attend to enjoy an excellent programme snd to show their appreciation, of the generosity of the performers in placing their services gratuitously at the disposal of the school.; ,
