A London contemporary has been in. viting its readers to submit what each considers to bo an ideal music-hall pro- • gramme. The answers have, naturally, been ns varied as the tastes of the contributors to the discussion. As the proverb says, one man's meat is another's poison, and, fortunately .for managers, the public is wont to reveal a wide divergence in the matter of entertainment. Still, the controversy makes interesting reading. But. now comes the “Performer," minded to look on the practical side of the question. “We have made inquiries of exports,” it says, “and have had estimates of from .€I6OO to .£2OOO a week for a bill” such as the majority iof these idealists have drawn up! Clearjly you cannot run a music-hall on theoretical lines and make it pay.
