PRINCE EDWARD

“30 THIS IS LOVE” “So This is Love,” the Columbia production now being shown at the Prince Edward Theatre, unfolds a story of a romance born in the artist’s section of lower New York, where a frail youth finds an ideal for his fashion creations in a mere slip of a girl living across the way. His interest ripens into a love which she reciprocates, after she has been the sweetheart of a bullying, brow-beating prize-fighter. The climax comes in a stirring bout between the fighter and the dressmaker, who enters the ring as an eleventh hour substitute. Shirley Mason and William Collier, Jnr., have featured roles in the production. “Riders of the Hark,” a gripping drama of the early days in the lawless West, with Tim McCoy as star, will also'be sjaown. CAROL CONCERT The annual carol concert by the Municipal Choir will be given in the Town Hall to-night. The programme will include a number of well-known old carols and modern settings by Boughton and Shaw. Miss Mina Caldow will sing Tschaikowski’s “Legend” and Somervell’s “Shepherd’s Cradle Song,” and Mr. Maughan Barnett, city organist, will play works by Guilmant and Claussmann and his own fantasia on the tune set to “Hark the Herald Angels Sing.” Mr. Leo Whittaker will be the accompanist.
