Rose Stahl & Co. In "The Chorus Lady". One of the best sketches in vaudeville and her part, the playing of it could not be surpassed. The man is acceptable; but the additional woman in the act should be supressed and Mr. Forbe or Miss Stahl - whoever is responsible for her appearance - should be told in plain language to get someone who can play the part. 38 min. in 3, 2 shows.
Leona Thurber & PICKS. One of the best "Pick" sets WE play; mighty close to Mayme Remington. 13 min. in 1, 2 shows.
Byers & Hermann. Comedy contortion and wire act; the men made up grotesque. They do some really remarkable tricks and their comedy is quite acceptable. It is rather a pretentious offering, requiring two sets of scenery, and at the bottom of the show they made a hit this afternoon. 15 min. full stage, 2 shows.
Motion Pictures.
"The Heart Governs A Head" Uninteresting picture.
"Dream of the Rabbit Fiend." Very good comedy picture.
