CRITICIALS OF SHOW. KEITH'S THEATER, PHILA. AUG. 14TH The Whitesides- 12 mins. in one- small boy and "big" girl, in singing, dancing and talking act; not particularly bright-- and not bad; just an opener, and that's about all. Harry B. Iester- 18 mins. in one-Monologue. His stuff is not up to the average. Not the kind for a Keith house. Didn't go very well, for his slang far a sort of enigma to the audience. Should get better stuff, and cut out "sporty" talk. Bertina- 12 mins.- Gar. in 2- woman, contortionist; a little stout for the work; does some too dancing and signing; not a very strong act, as she does nothing original, exceptional, or extraordinary; too many kisses. MoIntyro & Primrose- 15 mins
