Miss Hazel Eden. the leading so- prano with the Boston English Opera Company which comes to the Davis theatre on Friday night is an Ameri- can singer with a firm faith in her own language as a medium of nuEi- cal expression. Her professional ca reer in opera was begun with the Chicago Opera Company. and while with that organization she sang such principal roles as Stephano in Romeo d Juliet, with Cali Curci and Mu- rateri. Edmini in Louise. Madeleine in Victor Herbert's opera of that name. Gretel in Hansei and Cretei, Sartuzza in Cavalieria Rusticana, Frederic in Aignon and the title role in Aida
 In order that she might sing ia English. Miss Eden gave up her po- sition with the Chicago company. During her three years there. she proved herself one of it's most valua- = ble and reliable artists But she was not satisfied to sing in Italian or in French VocaIly and arttsticaily she felt herself fitted to blaze the way for the young American artist by showing the. public that opera can be given, in English just as artistcsily as in any other language. IL is safe to say that during the engagement of the Boston English Opera Company | Miss Eden will have accomplished a great deal not only towards popular king opera in English. but what is more important, towards the encour- agement of young American artists to perfect themselves in their own lan- Euage instead of sticking to the fet- ish. of an unintelligible tongue.

e Should Woman Tel, a Screen Classics, Inc, all star special photo play, with Alice Lake-who will be remembered as Norah Blake in Lom- bardi, Ltd, with Bert Lytell-JaclS Mulhall, young leading man whose screen name is description enough, and Frank Currier. the veteran actor viewers of. Metro pictures have known so pleasantly through the me diun of the screen for so many years, will be the feature attraction at the Breed today. Reports about the pie ture point to its being one of the most powerful and humanly appealing mel odramas picturized in years. The story and scenario by Finis Fox have for their theme the situation of a girl confronted with the problem of re-
 vealing, for the sake of her ease of conscience, a matter Of her past, to the man she is to marry; or of keep ing the secret to herself. Tn order
 not to try his love to too great a
 degree for forgiveness. The setting
 of the action is mainly in a little
 New England seacoast village. In no
 way a problem or propaganda play, Should a Woman Tell2 presents
 merely the picture of the play of emo | tions in a good woman's heart when torn between her desire for truth and
 her fear of the loss of the man she loves more than life itself
 Peggy Hyland will also be seen in The Web of Chance. a comedy drs-
 ma abounding in fun. seasoned with thrills and favored with sentiment. and Prizma, the picture beautiful will complete the bill.
