WILLIAM HEUGHAN

FINAL CONCERT TO-NIGHT All over the English-speaking world it has become the fashion to be an admirer of Heughan’s wonderful voice and art. Not to have seen and heard him means that you are not up to date musically, for his performances are something quite different from usual concerts, and many authorities consider it is on those lines that the concerts of the future will develop. It is the only way to hold the attention of the public, and they go again and again to see and hear Heughan. It is imperative that you see Heughan as well, and that is why the radio cannot give you Heughan and his art. After the brilliant performance on Monday* and the great enthusiasm shown, to-night is almost certain to be a memorable nignt at the Town ±lan when the hnai Heughan concert will be given.
