Boston Show, Week of August 2nd, 1909. R. G. Larsen (Monday, August 2nd--Afternoon Show.) The Fadettes. On at 1.40, 50 minutes full stage. There is no doubt about the popularity of the Fadettes in Boston, or the judgment of Mrs. Nichols in making up a programme that will appeal to our audiences. With the exception of last Monday afternoon they have been going big at every performance, and this afternoon kept up the gait. Mrs. Nichols has been a little under -2- The McNaughtons. On at 3.52, 18 minutes in 1. and 1 1/2. Although they had the same act that they gave here before, with new expressions worked in at intervals, they went better than ever. They got a good hand when they appeared and finished big. The De Mont Trio. On at 4.10, 19 minutes special set, full stage. This act, with its hotel office setting, one of the acrobats in a Buster Brown costume, the other as a bell-boy, and a rather attractive girl, kept things moving from the start, and it one of the swiftest, best and funniest acts of the kind we have played here in a long time. Cuts--Truesdell & Co.--"What the hell," "What the devil," and several "damns." Comment. This show worked out in great shape, except for the slight drop immediately following the Fadettes.
