B. F. KEITH'S THEATRE - BOSTON - WEEK JUNE 2, 1913

(R. G. Larsen.)

KINETOPHONE. 13 minutes in one. Special sheet. "Bonny Scotland" and "Dutch Courage."

THE KRATONS. 12 minutes f.s. Special set. A fine hoop-rolling act that started the show off in excellent shape.

ECKERT and FRANCIS. 12 minutes in one. Olio drop. Two men, one Dutch comedian, the other straight, in songs and talk. Got quite a few laughs and held this spot acceptably.

RONAIR and WARD. 15 minutes in one. Special drop. Man and woman in a dainty singing and talking act that went over in very good shape.

FLANAGAN and EDWARDS. 17 minutes. Open plain chamber. Close special and olio in one. "Off and On" proved a very worthy successor to "On and Off" and went very big at both performances to-day.

ETHEL GREEN. 20 minutes in one. O.P. Drapery. Her first visit here in three years. Has several new songs and some beautiful gowns. Went very well indeed.

VALERIE BERGERE and CO. in "His Japanese Wife." 24 minutes f.s. Special set. Miss Bergere has brightened up the act with a most beautiful and elaborate stage setting. It held the interest every minute, got a number of laughs, and closed strong.

BILLY MCDERMOTT. 21 minutes in one. Street. A great big hit. Had them laughing every minute, and closed very strong with his burlesque impersonations of Sousa and Creatore.

"NEPTUNE'S GARDEN OF LIVING STATUES." 18 minutes f.s. Special set. In its fifth and last week, and still holding the entire audience seated until the final curtain. Closed strong.
