(From an occasional correspondent.) August 14. tvt T hat , W ? H kll , own comedy, ' Jane, 1 was staged at Mai ton last week by the members of St. Mary's Catholic Club, Wanganui, and was a most creditable production Mr. H Glubb and Miss E. Loftus gave exceptionally good impersonations of the characters of Charles Shackleton and Jane respectively, whilst the part of Mr. Kershaw was placed in very capable hands when allotted to Mr. J. Kingsley, who did it full ius- •? c " .. Master L - Loftus acted with the necessary vivacity the part of Buttons, and received an imperative encore for an introduced song. The Misses B. and M~ Kennedy were excellent in the parts of Lucy Norton and Mrs. Chadwick, and Mr. L. Hooker and Miss W Bcrgin added greatly to the success of the performance with their acting and byplay in the roles of Mr .and Mrs. Pixton. .The staging and -dressing of tlie piece

were q,uite a feature of the performance, and reflected the greatest credit on all concerned. It is to be hoped that more will be seen of these clever amateurs in the near future. The visitors were accompanied by the Rev. Father Mahony, of Wanganui, and the president of the club, and weie, the guests of the Rev. Father Molloy, of Marton,
