" LOVERS' LANE." Last night the Plimmer-Denniston Dramatic Company ended its all too brief season by playing again "Lovers' Lane," a delightful work that charmed local playgoers in October last. The play is wholesome, inspiring and altogether of sweet savour, its appeal being one against clerical and congregational nar-row-mindedness. The company is as strong as before; but if familiarity is useful to players to make them grasp the inmost meaning of the playwright, a prolonged acquaintance has improved the art of the player*. Tn this delightful story the excellent companv is seen at its best. The principals nro vivacious, human and understanding. Nothing in stilted, wooden or stagey, and no matter what the subject is, absence of these defects is the true test of the members' qualification. On tbe plaviner of "Lovers" Lane" last, night it may be illumed thnt. the Plmimer-Dennislon Compnny will bo eagerly welcomed by that section of New Plymouth people capable of recognising ai'it when they collide with it, and who are disposed to patronise it in order to entice it back again.
