COMEDY IN ONE ACT Keitli Headlinels Hit; Jazz at Palace
There is a reai vaudeville bill at Kelth’s this week wlth tons of music, plenty of comedy, good singing and clever dancing. “The Son Dodgers,” headliner, has all thè essence of an elaborate comedy boiled down to one act, is beautifully mounted and has special songs, dances and some clever linea.. John E. Walker is thè Principal laugh-maker. Richard De Mar, Lillian Lester and Leda Errol contribute to thè success of thè piece. There are four pretty ladies whom we would like to cali something other than chorus girla, for they do more than thè usuai chorus steps and wear pretty costumes. They are an asset to thè act. Seldom are imitations given as clever as those of Kane and Grant. The little girl’s impresslon of Francis Whlte singing her famous puzzle song, “Round on thè End and High in thè Middle.” was one of thè cleverest bits of thè whole show. Her youthful male partner scored wlth a Frisco dance. It was one of thè best imitations of this famous dance we have ever seen. The Jazz band seems to be thè ruling fad in vaudeville this season. This time lt is Dare Harris and his eyncopators. They stopped thè show. Clara Barry and Orville Whitledge have a piano and song act that is clever. Sam Lewis and Sam Dody in their net “Hello. Hello, Hello,” offer an imitation of a ventriloqulst and his dummy that ls one of thè cleverest roveltles that we have seen in some time. Vasco, who plays thirty different Instruments In fifteen minutes, and an aerlal act called “Aviation Antlcs,” complete thè bìlL (By thè Observer). -|- -|- -|- Another Jazz Band A jazz band ls ngain thè feature offerì ng at thè Palace. The Ten Seattle Harmony Kings who headline thè bill are different. They lack nothlng in harmony and live up to their bUiing In that respect. They offer several noveltles, among them a colored jazz dancer. Jack Xeill, thè conductor, and Gene Collins, thè dancer, are featured. The audience was reluctant to let them go when we saw thè show. Kay Neilan, a dainty little character singer tied up thè show wlth her Scotch, "Wop” and Irish comedy songs. Her Harry Lauder imitation of “It's nice to get up in thè morning,” was nicely done. The act of Sophie and Harvey Everett, which they cali “Money,” ls thè dose of thè bill. Boganny’s comedians, a company of tight men, which includes several roidgets, do a comedy “school” act

which winds up in a tumbling act. Harry Gijbert offers a number of character and comedy songs which he has written himself. His material is c lever and well handled. Weadick and La Due offer a Western act of some merit. Their act is slow getting started and needs to be speeded up, but their roplng stunts pulì them through nicely. John Barrymore in “Sherlock Holmes” is thè photoplay attraction. And thè Cello Tal Ics Ever hear a cello and a violin carry on a conversation in English? That is what is happening at thè Lyric this week while Coscia and Verdi are on thè stage. The cello recites “Mary Had a Little Lamb.” Coscia and Verdi are clever entertainers. They know how to play thè violin and thè cello, and they know liow to “clown” without offende. They bring a dash of originalìty which easily makes them (according to my way of thinking) thè outstandirg feature on thè bill. Two acts on thè bill remind one of thè informai moments sound in thè modera revue. In “The Stage Director,” an author of a play takes thè audience into his confìdenee and "jokes” thè actors while they are playing his sketch. Of course, thè acting is exaggerated to get thè laughs. It’s rather a unique idea. This same confidential ’spirit comes into play during thè headline act. “Springtime Frivolities,” during which th producer (guess it is thè producer) tells thè audience his plot has been stolen. He introduces thè cast and they decide to improvise a plot as they go along. Homer Sisters sing and dance. They dance better than . they sing. The Three Belmonts open thè show with hoop-throwing and thè like. Scotty Weston is a dancer. He has some well executed steps. Welser and Reiser have noisy nonsense, both in conversation and song. The Vartety Trio ls a comedy singing organlzatlon At thè Lyric all week. —By W. D. H. -I- -I- -IConceming “The Painfed Flapper” Want to laugh? Then go to thè Park Theater this week and see “The Painted Flapper,” for it is so ridiculous it ls really funny. During thè “big moment,” thè eli max of thè play, thè audience howlecì j wlth laughter. It Is thè scene where ; thè husband, a poor, weak, wounded war veteran, fights wlth his em- j ployer who was trying to break up his home. We have seen stage fights before, but this one wins thè prize. Again thè audience was convulsed | during a dramatic love scene. We reali}’ w’ere sorry for thè performers, for they seemed to be taklng thè
thing seriously and doing their best. We were surprised to see Walter Poulter in such a play, but one thing must be sald, he stood head and shoulders above thè cast and thè play itself and commanded thè attention of thè audience whenever he made his appearance. “The Painted Flapper” is cheap melodrama and can’t last in thè big cities. However, thè prices are reasonable and it may entertain some people. Certainly it will make you laugh.

“Queen of thè Turi,” a motion pioture of thè Kentucky Derby, is thè photoplay attraction. -I- -I- -ILooks Like th> Reai Thing This must be thè open season for jazz bands. There is a jazz band featured in "The Pepper Pota,” at thè Broadway this week. This band, however, ls a burlesque on a jazz band. At last we have burlesque bits In a burlesque show. There is a burlesque on grand opera, on a mlndreading act, on dancing and on drama. Charles Goldie, thè featured comedian, is versatile. First of all, he ls a comedian, but he ties up thè show
with his dancing, "Red” Marshall, thè second comic, also is a clever funrnaker. Jack Léonard handles most of thè song numbers. His impresslon of Caruso singing “Pagliacci” ls a feature. The program says * Bertha Delmonte wears regular clothes.” They are expensive looking, if that is what they mean. Others in thè cast are Harry Keeler, Peggy Day and Rae Leanse. The “Pepper Pots” contains more legitimate comedy than any other show in thè house this season. (By thè Observer.) TO CURE A COLD IN ONE DAT Take Laxative BROMO QUININE tableta.
