As an opener of the theater sea-
son, Faust did not attract a very large
attendance at Royal hall last Friday
evening. The presentation of Faust
was creditable and merited good pat
ronage. Again on Tuesday evening
another good entertainment was poorly
attended. This was ''The Rosary" a
play that ought to have had standing
room only" ''The Kissing Princess"
was booked for Tuesday evening, Sept.
3, but has been cancelled by the hall
management And this looks as though
Edgerton was now off the map for
theatrical performances and Royal hall
would be closed until the public appe-
tite calls aloud for good shows again.
