PICTURE ENTERTAINMENTS.
A PERMANENT SHOW FOR PALMERSTON. Mr Henry Hay ward, who has been directing the successful seasons of West's Pictures every week in Palmerston, has decided to replace them with a still more popular venture —the Pathe Pictures. Arrangements have been completed whereby these pictures will "be shown every evening when the Opera House is not otherwise engaged, and transferring to the Municipal Hall when any other attraction has secured the Opera House itself. The programmes will be changed entirely every Wednesday and Saturday evenings, and all the latest pictorial novelties will be screened. For the past week Mr Hay ward's etaff of electricians have been engaged installing-.a; large electrical plant at the. Opera House, including a 12-h.p. gas . engine and a dynamo capable of generating 100 amperes, equal to 3000 candlepower light. A 1910 Pathe biograph machine just imported from Paris will project an absolutely flickerless picture, and everything that brains or money can procure will be utilised in making the Pathe Pictures a permanent and popular feature of Palmerston's amusement.
