OPERETTA SCORES
 GREAT SUCCESS

The romantic comic operetta 'The Lass of Limerick Town" under the auspices of the Children of Mary or St Mary's church was given at the school hall last evening for the benefit of the church. A large and appre- ciative audience gathered to witness the performance and seldom has there been a better amateur production. The talent shown by the leading char acters as well as those in minor roles would have done credit to prones- sionals.
 James Mahoney made a most fa- vorab1e impression as Captain Come roy Warrington, his acting being admittedly one of the finest features of the evening. He possesses a splendid voice, and sang his way into the hearts of the audience, especially in his solos Ireland Dear, My Hearts For You" and Come Back Beloved"
 The title role of the operetta was finely filled by Miss Hazel Thompson. Her interpretation of Betty was de- lightful and throughout her acting was accompanied with usual dramatic intelligence and versatility above the ordinary, She displayed fine vocal quality In her solo Betty MacCay," and her duet with James Mahoney was one of the gems of the program.
 Miss Ariyne Malley as Rose was capital, showing in her acting dra- mauc ability and fine elocutionary powers. Her solo Was Ever Fate So Cruel as Mine" was beautifully renA Poverty and the trio "'T1s the Heat" her voice was charming.
 The bright and bustling Mrs. ,O'Flynn full of good nature and smiles was portrayed charmingly by Miss Esther Burnes end Her Moth CT o' Mine,'' solo, was rendered in such a pleasing way that she was the re- cipient of much favorable comment Miss Kay Burnes was all that could bew ished for as Molly.
 Miss Mildred Barker delighted the audience by her intelligent interpre- tation of the stately Lady Worthing- ton and her duet with Joseph Clabby won much applause. The latter, as Sir Charles Worthington, showed a fine appreciation of the character he portrayed and rendered Youth Un- dutiful in a sweet and pleasing voice. Thomas Driscol as Judge Hooley, was excellent His singing of the Trick Tock," and Maggie McGuire," pleased his audience great ly. Justin O'F1ynn was played with ability by Joseph Onkey, who was very droll as the Amorous Attorney.
 Raymond Bellew, John Nelson, J. Riley and J. Buckley rounded out the cast in most pleasing and ac- ceptable manner.
 The stage setting was most pie turesque and appropriate and the costumes were elaborate
 Hundreds of people were turned away from the door because they could not be accompanied.
 Prof. w. E.. Widenhammer was the musical conductor and he won fa- vorable criticism from the large au- dience who repeatedly applauded his work.
