EDISON'S PICTURES.
TO-NIGHT.
The season of Edison's Popular Pictures will commence in the Mas-ter-ton Town Hall to-night.
In speaking of the Pictures a Christohurch paper says:—"Professor Andrews is certainly to be complimented on having given Christohurch the finest set of motion pictures yet seen here—bar none. They are a revelation of America at play and work, and give far and away the best idea of life in the States New Zealauders have ever hud. From books and magazines something oan"be learned, but when the real thing'in life and motion is seen the idea takes concrete form. The programme is a lengthy one with only one interval and, in is not 'fatted out,' (.to use a printing term), with poor singing and indifferent music. You sit down to a picture feast and dish after dish passes on to the table, long enough to be well sampled, and then Gives place to something/ better. 'There are pictures pathetic, humourous and instructive—pictures showing great industrial efforts and the people at play-'" Tickets obtained •when the Company visited Masterton some time ago will admit the bearers.
