APRIL PENDARVIS (Contralto) 4.0 FRANK ASHWORTH’S PARK LANE HOTEL DANCE BAND
From the Park Lane Hotel
5.0 Mrs. TOWERS SETTLE: Fashions for the Coming Season '
FASHIONS for the coming season !
What a thrill the phrase communicates to rather more than half of the population; for with women the instinct of dress is almost universal, and the woman with a small dress allowance and a clover dress-maker is just as keenly interested in the latest news from Paris as the plutocratic patron of the most celebrated establishments in Hanover Square. This afternoon they will both have a chance to hear the latest and most authentic advices from so well-informed an expert as the editor of Vogue.

This pantomime should have been produced last year-approximately on Boxing Day. We say ' 'approximately' because most Strutham Amateur productions are unavoidably postponed at the eleventh hour. ' Dick Whittington ' was first discussed at a meeting of the Society in May, 1926, and forgotten until July, 1927, when it was definitely decided to stage the entertainment on December 26. An epidemic of absentee-ism enforced yet another postponement, and the date on the tickets has been altered to April 9. Billing this outside broadcast as a ' rehearsal ' is merely playing for safety. Recent reports from Strutham tend to the supposition that the actual production cannot take place before midsummer (1929 ?)
