CONCERT BY DEVON CADETS

BRIGHT AND VARIED PROGRAMME. Once again the steamer Devon is visiting New Plymouth, and with her she has brought another batch of cadets, who gave a bright concert before a packed house at the Workers’ Social Hall last night, as was done on the vessel’s last trip.’ For its variety and freshness the concert was outstanding and, combined with the fine talent of the performers, went to make a very entertaining evening. The programme was as follows: — Opening chorus (the company); “Captain Mac” (G. W. F. Sang win; “Mary Lou” (J. R. Whiteman, W. E. Coates, L. V. Horn and chorus); “Barcelona” (T. Marchington and T. S.

Sangwin); “So Can We” (P. Gowland and Company); “Sing a Little Song” (company); "Three Priceless Old Things” (W. E. Coates, J. R. Whiteman, G. W. Sangwin); “Quack, Quack” ,(C. H.
