(Own Correspondent.) The popular Town Hall service, which falls due to be held next Sunday evening, has, through a combination of circumstances, had to be postponed. As the meetings have been a large success and a great deal of benefit to the town, it is a desire on the part of the organisers to continue to meet the need. Therefore October 22nd has been fixed upon as the date of the next meeting and plans are already in process of making still further developments. In lieu of there being no meeting in the Town Hall, a special programme is being arranged for the church on Sunday next. Full particulars will be advertised later on in the week. After a spell of two weeks, the weekly meetings of St. Andrew’s Literary and Debating Society were resumed on Saturday evening, when Mr. E. E. Hurdsfield delivered a lecture entitled “The Air.” Throughout the course of the lecture, the speaker illustrated his statements with the aid of a large number of excellent experiments, which were watched with rapt attention by the audience. On the motion of Mr. J. Warren, a very hearty vote of thanks was accorded Mr. Hurdsfield for his excellent and instructive lecture and for the trouble he had taken in the erecting of his apparatus.
