"EVERYWOMAN."

To-morrow night the. much discussed spectular dramatic success, will be .presented for the first and only time- to playgoers of Masterton at the Town. Hall. "Everywonian" is the kind of play that appeals to every section, of the community, as during the unfolding of an intensely interesting story, containing some big dramatic situations, the audience is at the same time/ gazing on elaborate stage settings, magnificent scenery, and ■beautifully dressed damsels, -whilst .throughout the piece a full orchestra plays.melodious music, which was specially • written for "Everywoman" by George White-field Chadwick. Playgoers will be glad to welcome the brilliant actress, Miss Hilda Spong, who created a sensation in Australia with her interpretaton of "Everywonian." The life progress cf tlie heroine, from the shelter of her happy home to the rioband revelry of a theatrical career, thence to inevitable disillusionment, and sorrow, and finally to the quiet circle within which true love, and happiness await her repentant return', is followed with the keenest interest in the ideals of the story and in the moiial lesson it conveys. Mr "William Desmand, who will make his re-appear-ance here in tlie .role of Nobody, has already earned distinction in Ne.v Zealand by meritorious performances. The scenery and effects have come tohand in charge of a staff of mechanics. The. bocc plans are now open at the Dresden, where seats in central positions can bo selected in either thedross circle or reserved stalls. The Company wil arrive here to-morrow morning. __^___
