THE ARGYLLS BAND.
BIG AUDIENCE AT PENINSULA HOTEL ENTERTAINED ̧
An exceptional musical treat was provided by the band of the 2nd Battalion The Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, on the ocension of the Peninsula Hotel's symphonic concert last Sunday night. The large gathering of listeners, numbering over 500, filled the seating accommodation in the spacious ground floor lounge to its extreme capacity, and ac- corded a hearty reception to the excellent programme.
Features worthy of particular mention were the renderings by the combined Pipes and Band, and military compositions which kept the audience at the highest pitch of enthusiasm throughout. Encores were in constant demand, but time admitted only of oc casional response.
It was a sparkling musical enter tainment of a high standard, and

Now comes the realization that this most important of rooms can be made just as clean, as tidy and satisfying to your ideas of propriety as any other room in the house-And so .; the kitchen of to-day need no longer be the sooty eye-sore of a room it used to be, but a bright, sootless healthy place..
.. a room which it will be a pleasure to show to your friends. Many people have found the secret of this metamorphosis and, and every day, more women are discovering the happy wisdom of cooking by electricity, the beauty and cleanliness of Moffats Electric Ranges and the surprising economy it is possible to effect by their use.
