singing directed By Kearney ana Ryan
can hardly be excelled within the
limits of farce and both Of these clever
young men are almost continually on
the stage, keeping things moving at a
pace that hardly gives one time to
take breath between laughs.
Hazel Carleton singing and dancing
comedian is another exceptionally
bright fun maker. She wasa Bowery
dance, assisted by Joe Ward, which is
worthy of any vaudeville house in the
country and her handling of new
coon song, sung for the first time in
Albuquerque, is in itself an evening s
entertainment. Daisy Carleton. her
sister, is also very clever. John Flynn.
