Mr.. Kendall in Swell Elegant

laugh-making career for there has
been woven into the piece the es-
sence of humor at which he is best.
AS a monologist Mr.. Kendall scat
tered humor from coast to coast,
and he has combined in his present
role the humor which won him the
leadership in other fields. The lines
are OF the crisp, terse, meaty sort
that enabled him to stand
alone before an audience and
keep the people laughing, and Ken

happiest vein as Kendall, the hu-

fitting vehicle for Mr.. Kendall has
been the prime object, there has
been preserved a coherent and In

interest running through II. The
scenes are laid in a small Indiana
village and this allows for the intro

a 5000 animal for him, was stabbed
22 times about the shoulders and

is canvasser by profession, and
says he has a heavy Winchester re-
