This enthusiasm was shown by the regularity with which members of week as’?, ,^ eam ® at tended the practices held during the .eek, as well as by the large number who went in for a thorough course of training in the gymnasium. Under the c^ideSbl?nrofh th °, -ach ,< Mr - J«*)> members derived nn!+ d f 1 V -i- nd have learned to appreciate the finer points of Association football. The Second Grade team took a prominent place in the Cup fixtures, and had the fc r of winning, after a splendid contest, the Five-aside Championship Tournament. The Third Grade team, comiawlf 7 ° f Buyers new to Association football, tied nith Northern as premiers for the season 1909. The Fourth Grade team, though not so successful as the others, held a 'expectable position in the Cup fixtures. The club’s financial ] osition is sound, a small credit balance remaining over from last year, The smoke concert, held at the end of the season, was a pronounced success, the club members and visitors enjoying themselves to the full. It pleased the committee to present to Mr. Jack, in recognition of his services to the club, a watch and handsome framed photo of club members. The committee takes this opportunity of returning thanks to the Referees’ Association for the consistency with which it provided referees for matches and to the press for the generous treatment it gave to club reports. . . \ Judging by the demand for tickets there will be a record attendance at the St. Patrick’s Night concert which, in view of the undoubted talent of the artists engaged, will bo the most successful entertainment of its kind held here for many years. The engagements include Miss V lolot Mclntosh, who, since her arrival in Dunedin a short time ago, has won high eulogium in all quarters for the natural beauty of her voice and the artistic sense of interpretation which characterise her singing, and there is little doubt that her first appearance at a St. Patrick’s Night concert, when she will contribute ‘ Kathleen Mavournecn ’ and The Irish Emigrant,’ will establish her a firm favorite with the audience. Mrs. R. Hudson, jun." will make her re-appearance after an absence of some’years’ and those who remember the felicity of her treatment of tho Irish national songs will notice with pleasure that her name is once again on a St. Patrick’s Night concert programme. Mr. James Jago is perhaps the most popular vocalist who has taken part in these concerts during past years, and the reputation he enjoys is a guarantee of his success. Mr. McGrath is also favorably known to patrons of the concert. In response to numerous requests’ he has consented to sing ‘ The wearing of the green,’ a spirited rendition of which won the very warm appreciation of his audience on a former occasion. Mr. Brennan has such a deservedly high reputation as an elocutionist that he is certain to suit the taste of his audience with his humorous and serious contributions. The Kaikorai Band will contribute two items of popular Irish airs, and St. Joseph’s Choir, as in former years, will add .to the enjoyment of the concert by their appearance. The committee has made every endeavor to make the concert as truly national as possible, a course 'which will have the hearty approval of those who love the songs that awake memories of the • Old Land. , -■■■■
