CRITICISM KEITH & PROCTOR'S 125TH STREET THEATRE JANUARY 20 1908 GERTRELLA Gymnast. Young lady of pleasing personality. Her work is Rather ordinary and minus anything startling. The jury did not enthuse. Only a fair opening act and one which is not appreciated. Ten Minutes Full Stage. WORK & OWER Acrobats. Must say the best we ever had. They are pretty fast workers got the laughs and plenty of applause. Six Minutes in Two. WILSON BROTHERS German Comedians. Act remains same as presented before. They did not make the impression as on their former engagement probably due to their appearance crosstown. Did fairly well, however. Fourteen Minutes in One. MR. & MRS. GENE HUGHES Presenting the comedy "Suppressing the Press". It is remarkable how this old stand-by holds the audience. They held their own here today and received the usual amount of laughs finishing with several curtain calls. Twenty-four Minutes Full Stage. BESSIE WYNN This young lady did not go as strong as before, probably due to the members of the thick intellect society or her routine of songs some of which are rather quiet and the others are six men and three women. There are great opportunities for development which will come by constant work. The business and situations are original and excellent and brought forth many laughs. Some parts of the act are rather crude weakened Dailey considerably. Will place him earlier in the bill to-night. Twenty Minutes Full Stage. KINETOGRAPH The Football Craze Very Good Comedy
