CAMP ENTERTAINERS.
ENTHUSIASTIC AUDIENCE AT AT TRENTHAM. \ That the men of the Third Echelon appreciate good entertainment was demonstrated last week when an excellent programme arranged by the executive committee of the Official Camp Entertainers was presented. Mrs. Chas. McDonald and her talented band of performers were responsible for this programme, each item receiving tumultuous applause accompanied by loud calling for the return of the performers. Mr. Colin Davidson was stage manager, and he was assisted by Mr. W. Wotton. All the accompaniments were played by Mrs. Chas. McDonald. Others who took part were Miss Maureen Hickford, Mr. K. McCauley, Miss Pauline Shotlander, Mr. Alec Den-nistoun-Wood (solos), Mr. E. G. Kain (conjuring), Miss Molly Cook (Spanish dance), Miss Jocelyn Walker (pianoforte solos), Mr . Harry Painter (stories), and Mr. Buddy Longman and his doll “Jerry” (confidential ventriloquist talks).
Colonel Jardine thanked the executive committe and Mrs. McDonald for the entertainment amid cheering from the men, and after the singing of the National Anthem the performers were entertained to supper.
