"CHILDREN TO BLESS YOU”

A family can be at once tho most magnificent and yet the most terrifying institution of which man forms a part. The crises, major and minor, which arise with alarming frequency, the dependency of one member of the family upon another, the subtle emotional undercurrents—all these have been incorporated by G. Sheila Donisthorpe in her play “Children to Bless You. ’ For many weeks a capable and enthusiastic cast of the Manawatu Repertory Society lias been working under the guidance of Mr F. Cousins, who as a producer .can claim a long line of past, successes. Ihc pace of tho play is rapid throughout and patrons arc assured of never a dull moment in its entire presentation. They will take the Lawrence family to their heart, and will never quite lose the feeling that, they might be next-door neighbours. “Children io Bless You” will be presented for a limited season only—it will bo staged at the Empire Hall to-night and again tomorrow night, at 8 o’clock. Reserve now at Messrs Collinson and Cunninghamc s. It is a Repertory shew.
