AMUSEMENTS

VICTOR PRINCE REVUE COMPANY. One may say without fear of contradiction that the above Company is the most perfect and artistic combination ever playing before a Taihape audience, after a six weeks' successful season at the Auckland Opera House. The artists include Mr Victor Prince, who is acknowledged as Australia's own talented comedian, an artist who imparts his own good numour to the audience. The following artists will also appear: Miss Lillian Colenso, a great New Zealand favourite; Mr Chas. Zolia, Italian comedian and dancer; Miss Rose Brennan, Ireland's sweetest singer; Miss Ruby Esdaile, of Revue fame; Sharrat and Lang, York Grey, and Florence Lyle, the leading ballet dancers and the Chas. Heenan Enigma, in /Is She a He, or is He a She?". The box plan is on view at Finch's Bazaar.

THREE STARS "Ashes of Happiness," one of the most beautiful coloured dramas ever shown here, will be screened for tne last time to-night. To-morrow nighr the management will produce one of the finest programmes ever submitted to a Taihape audience, particulars of which will appear in to-morrow's paper. "EVERYBODY'S" To-night the management will present a new programme, headed by the popular little actress, Miss Marguerite Clark, in a particularly fine drama entitled "Wildflower." This picture, when recently shown in Sydney and Auckland, met with more than ordinary success, and record houses are anticipated. The production occupies four parts, and is the work of the Famous Players' Company. It is said to be Marguerite Clark's greatest achievement. An excellent supporting programme consists of the first series of Britisn Official War Films, showing the latest doings at the front, also a really pathetic drama entitled "The Prima Donna's Mother," and a two-par t comedy "Under New Management," featuring Billie Ritchie, a rival of Charlie Chaplin.' The same progremme will be repeat ed to-morrow night.
