Especial Correspondence
y ONDON, April stalls have been
fairly cheap during the past
week at most OF the West End
theaters. In other words, the
influence OF the Easter holidays has
made itself rather severely felt, The
monled classes seized the opportunity
Of flying to the country. Park Lane
and Grosvenor Square were practical
IL deserted and the consequence was
that the higher-priced places in the
various theaters showed a plentiful
lack Of occupants. The difficulty was
met by some Of the managers by the
simple means Of selling stalls at a re-
bate Of something like 40 per cent. pro-
vided Of course, there was no room
elsewhere After all. why looking at
the commonsense aspect Of the ques-
ton. shouldn't they have done so? Tho
principle obtains more or less In every
other trade or profession-where would
