AUDIENCE ENJOYS PERFORMANCE To a responsive audience the combined gymnasium classes of tlio Y.M.C.A. last evening at the Opera House gavo a striking display of gymnastics made interesting. The selfevident enthusiasm and applauso greeting acts, ranging from the tasteful to the most vigorous, must have been heartening to those who had worked so hard to ensure the success ot' the carnival. When the season had concluded, Mr. J. Grant, who apologised for the absence of Mr. T. R. Hodder, of the Board of Governors, returned a comprehensive vote of thanks to members of the orchestra and the host of helpers who had not appeared before the footlights. Parents of the girls were specially mentioned in connection with the frockiug. This year Messrs Woods and Gittiugs had been at least as good if not better than last year in the direction'finish they had imported to the production. At this stage Mr. Woods made an unwilling entry to bo cheered to' the echo. Mr. Grant concluded by saying that the display had been deservedly popular indicative of the work the Y.M.C.A. was doing.
