after time wa the well dre sed choru recallec.., a'ld it wa a tired but happy band of r vellers which reluctantly departed. otire of this cabaret would· not b comple e with- out mel]/!ion of the indefat1g1: ble effort of Captain W. G. Wood, th energ tic organi ing secret1rv, to who e credit a great deal of rhc success mu t be placed. Mr::;. Wood, too, desen.e mention for her work in connection with the de igning of most of th clwrming costumes, and Mr. L wi~ wa a compet nt ~Lage manao-er. Of cour e, a great deal depended up n the manner in \\hich the cl1orus gi1 l carriefl out their part of the pro~rarnmP. and their cohf'sion and perfed rh thm speak volume.

for the marshal hip of Mis Miri m Kirsrh, the popular local dancin9;

mistre . One can only hope that thi abaret i the forerunner of many more in the near future.

R TH CORE

A large nudw· ::e. at the City Hall on aturday mgd last. were charmed with the performance of thi talented 1 ittle pi:mi te, who played in con- junction with the Orchestra. Although her appearance had not previously been "worked up" as is usually the case when an en/ant prodigue is to make hi or her bow before the public, there was a spontaneou. and enthusiastic recogniti n of her work~

and at the conclusion of her per- formance she was imply over- whelmed· with floral token and boxe of chocolates. It was indeed a triumph which Ruth achieveJ. She till lacks that finish which experience will give her, but her techniqu wa

well nigh perfect. That . uch a youthful person could prodn e the tone and rhythm in her playing of Mendel ohn' econd Pianoforte Concerto was a revelation to an obviously interested audience. Her interpretation ' as splendid and she thorou.cihl v de erved the ovation accord~d her.

BRIGHTE r1 G CAPE TOW~.

King Car 1ival reigned supreme al the Hotel Edward on Frida. night last, when the Cape Town Dance Teacher ' Association's fir l cabaret was held. It proved to be a brilliant uccess, and the organisers deserve every praise for inau~urnting a form of entertainment that ha long bPen missing from the social life of the Peninsula. The pioneer of any movement are faced with many diffi- culties and obstacles, but C.T.D.T.A.

?ave ~ndoubtedly scored a bull's ey m their first attempt to brighten Cape Town in the social ense. Whil L

one or two features might be im- proved npon-and there is no doubt the organiser will profit by construc- tive criticism that has been and will be offered them, there is nothing but praise for them for the really excellent, artistic and enjovnHe pro- duction which they staged on Frida night. A laro-e gathering wa attracted by the promise of a night of fun and frolic and the carnival pirit was maintained until the pla - ing of the National Anthem.

A BRILLIA T SPECTACLE.

The Hotel Edward i well uited for such an affair, but the indications point to the necessity of a more com- modious rendezvous being cho en for the next cabaret. The dining- room had been decorated in a heme of black and gold, and clusters of balloons, and the gay throng wear- ing fanta tic carnival caps and other mirth-provoking tokens. danced be- neath the coloured limes and spot- lights to the tuneful Arains of Znbow and Moller' Orche tra. The dinner tables were tastefullv arranged around the walls of the hall, under the gallerie , which were fillt'"d with interested spectators, and in between cour es, fox-trots, charle tous, and black bottoms were vigorously in·

dulged in. Alternately with the re- gular dancing, there· were songs, choruse , and ballets, arrangt>d by l\f jss Miriam Kirsch and Mfas Levin, which were enthusiasticallv received and frequently recalled. The variou choru e were led by Miss I obel Brodie and Mr . Phil Marcus, and these popular local artists deserved the unstinted ovations that gTeeted

their efforts. -

PERFECT CHORUS.

It wa a thoroug-hly appreciative gathering and the enthusiasm reqrhed a climax when the grand finRle-

"' Humming" was reached. Time

THE '\'EW \TATIVE TOWN .. HIP.

Judging by the number of i.ho e pre ent out of the ix hundrerl ladi and gentlemen who had ht>en inYited by th Mayor and Corporation tn in-

pect the newly-completed native township at Langa on the Flat_, local Jewr.' doe not tal·e verv mnch in- terest in thi important quc_,t:!.on.

After , 11 it mu t not he foro-ott n that it i to the~e people that \'.~..,have to lool· to a \ery great e:x.1ent for our ervants, and thourrh there is hardl that interest taken~ in '1he hewers of tone and the carrier of water, ' that the Bihl tells us we lnuld do the nati,·e qu tion i one that hi ~ very eriou import on our li\'e and being. The Lown~hip i beautifully ituat d and i in remarka hl v h allh surroundings.

In

fact,

it

micrht rea. onably be termed "the native garden eity." . The qua~ter~ nre very comfortable without bemcr elaborate and if it had not been

fo;

^the

s~ort­

sighted policy of the Labour DeparL- menL the example s t by Lh , Cane Town Mt.:.nicipalit might have he. n followed with advantage to all con- cerned by oth r town council:'.

THE AB URDITY OF IT.

To my mind,_ it seems a 1 iule bit ridiculou that the co t of the ('Stab- lishment of town hip uch as th e should be quadrupled hv the in~i t- ence of the Trades Union . The id~a of whit killed labour only bemg u ed for the purpo e of erectincr Kaffir habi.tation i palpahly ab urd~

more particularly when the incr<'a ed cost of this fall upon the native themselves. Owing to the fact that the e tabli hment of Langa towrn;;hip exceed a quarter of a million terling the nati es will have to pay more money than th y did at daheni.

and I for one doubt whether th public will b willinrr to increase the wage th y pay in order that the for:ner may 110~ b at a di advanl::ige.

This could ea 1ly have hern a oided by permitting native to work 1her them elves, but the labour "Pooh Bah " aid otherwi . Sti 11 it i

omething to have the kaffir!' coming to work from c1ean and hralthv . ur- rounding and the Cape To,\n Muni- cipality are .to be ongratulated upon the enterprise they have hown in the e tablishment of thi ideal town-

hip.
