They regretted to say that these evils were rampant in the district and throughout the country in general The indignant Free Church Council also appealed against the granting of any niore licenses tor cinemas and "so-called sacred concerts, &c., in the district, feeling that this would be in the best interests of the neigh- bourhood, and that it was high time more should b one for the preservation of the Lord's Day. the Clerk stated that cinema licenses were granted by the magistrates.
