B. F. KEITH'S THEATRE - BOSTON - MARCH 24th, 1913.
(R. G.. Larsen)

NIP AND TUCK. 8 minutes f.s. Garden. First-class acrobatic act with all kinds of applause and laughs.

ETHEL KIRK and BILLY FOGARTY. 12 minutes in one. Garden. A new comedy act with an element of novelty. Get over in great shape.

JAMES LEONARD and CO. in "WHEN HAM LETS HER."  13 minutes f.s  Tapestry C.D.F. While this travesty got some laughs, and went very well, withstanding the woman was suffering from a severe cold, the act suffers by comparison with "When Casar C's Her" and the old company.

DOOLEY and PARKER. 15 minutes in one. Street. This act started slow ut worked up to a good comedy finish. Young Dooley is a coming comedian.

W. C. FIELDS. 20 minutes f.s. Special drop. Doing pretty much the same routine of stuff, and going just as big as ever.

THOMAS A. EDISON KINETOPHONE. 14 minutes in one. Special sheet. Two of the best pictures we have shown yet.

MORGAN, BAILEY and MORGAN. 12 minutes in one. O. P. Drapery. While this act was entertaining, it was by no means the hit it appears to have been in other cities. The weak spot in it is the woman.

HENRY WOODRUFF and CO. in "A REGULAR BUSINESS MAN."  28 minutes f.s. Office interior. This splendid sketch went over in great shape, with lots of laughs and I think it will draw business.

DOLLY CONNELLY and PERCY WENRICH. 20 minutes in one. Olio. Got a reception and went very well.

"WINKS," THE DIVING SEAL and THREE TRAVILLA BROTHERS.  7 minutes f.s. Special drop. A novelty that held the audience, and made a good closer.

CUTS:  Nip and Tuck - pink skirt business.
Kirk and Fogarty "Grace church" gag - "onfirmation suit" gag - "Snooky Ookums" song.
James Leonard - "Should worry and get my tights baggy - "Give me Hell" - "broiler" - "squab" - garter business - "You must not kid with Hamlet."
Dooley and Parker- holding nose - "For a long time we couldn't get a Long" gag - "Didn't look at their faces" gag - reference to Pekin Theatre.
Henry Woodruff * "Oh my God."
