BOSTON KEITH'S Nov. 25, 8 Weekly: Bert & Lottie Walton;- 9 min. f.s. spec. Boy and girl in a novel acrobatic and dancing turn. Well staged, made a fair opener. Hennings & Marks:- 16 min. in 1 and 2 1/2 spec. This couple have a very neat singing and dancing act, well varied and pretty gowns, although very similar to preceding act. Went well. Harry Langdon:- 20 min. f.s. spec. This well known act got plenty of laughs and closed to a good hand. Mary Melvile:- 12 min. in 1. Miss Melvile in her first appearance here as a single scored nicely with her chatter and song, closing to a good hand. Diane & Rubini:- 27 min. f.s. An exceptional violinist and clever little French girl with song, making their first appearance here. After eliminating a rather risque song used at the matinee, this act was a decided hit in the evening. Closing to a good hand. Al & Fannie Stedman:- 19 min. in 1. This act with their accustomed life and ginger went very nicely, closing to a good hand. Lucille Cavanagh:- 22 min. f.s. spec. Although Miss Cavangh was somewhat handicapped in the setting of her scenery on account of Ideal's tank, the audience apparently was not aware of it as she went over very nicely and closed to a good hand. Moss & Frye:- 19 min. in 1. Just as big as on previous visits here. Ideal:- With so many new good acts on the market it is difficult to understand why we have to repeat this ordinary diving act of a past generation. Red Cross Picture:- After Ideal had thinned out the audience, there was nothing left for the picture; but with the War stopped, the picture seems like ancient history.
