EVENING OF DRAMA
WHANGAROA TALENT The staging of plays in North Auckland is becoming increasingly popular, and is also bringing to light a considerable number of actors who possess talent above the ordinary. Last week the Whangaroa branch of the Women's Division of the Farmers' Union held a very successful evening at Whangaroa, when a series of one-act plays was presented. The president, Mrs. W. H. Lane, gave an outline of the origin and work ol the division. The first play, " The Cure for Indifj fercnce," was produced by Mrs. Mail, j uho, in the role of an elderly aunt, I called for special mention. She was I supported by Misses M. and P. Lane I osta r. In the play "Bobbie Settles Down," Mrs. H. Hayes, Mrs. Murray, Mrs. E. Brown and Mrs. Watson carried out the chief parts. " The Burglar " caused great merriment, the characters being portrayed by Mescalines Miller, T. Leslie, It. Brighouse, I'. Maddox and J. Hayes.
