ENTERTAINMENT.

On Monday evening last, the Presbyterian young people’s societies of First Church, St. Andrew’s, North-East Valley, Cavorshara, and South Dunedin, met in the social hall of the Caversham Benevolent Institution, when they gave their annual Christmas concert and supper to the inmates. The room was crowded on the occasion. Tho Rev. R. Fammiid, who presided, apologised for the unavoidable absence of the Rev. P. M. Beattie, P.S.S.A, chaplain to the institution. An admirable programme, consisting of vocal and instrumental items, recitations, dances, and party choruses, were well rendered and greatly appreciated by the audience, the various items being received with loud applause. At the close of the programme an abundant supply of good things of first quality furnished an excellent supper, which made a fitting climax to a most enjoyable evening.
