Providence, R. I.    B. F. KEITH'S    Dec. 2nd,    8
We have a very good bill this week and one which I think will draw business.
CHAS. LOVENBERG

BERT & LOTTIE WALTON:
A well presented act of dancing and acrobatics with a little singing and talk thrown in. Made very good opener. 8 min. in 2.
HARMON & O'CONNOR:
Two husky young women in an act of singing and comedy. Did very well indeed. 17 min. in one.
THOS. JACKSON & CO:
In a sketch "Two Men". Well written and well played. 18 min. full stage.
HALLEN & HUNTER:
Man and woman, some fair violin playing by the woman and very funny comedy by the man. A real hit. 15 min. in one.
ADOLPHUS & CO:
Three men and two women. About the best Russian dancing act ever played here. 11 min. special drapery in three.
DOROTHY BRENER:
In the same act she did last season which was well received. 13 min. in one.
HARRY WATSON & CO:
In the telephone scene and boxing scene from "Odds And Ends". Nothing short of a riot of laughs. 20 min. full stage.
HARRY HINES:
Singing comedian who made quite a hit, but who with his reputation and salary received should get some exclusive songs and not sing the hackneyed published things that are heard in all the ten cent places, cabarets, drugstores, etc., 18 min. in one
BIRDS OF A FEATHER:
A very pretty wire act with some excellent work by one of the members. 7 min. full stage.
MOTION PICTURES:
Peace Celebration in Paris--Red Cross Film.
