Bradley Theatre.

Raymond Teal and his musical com edy company, holding the boards at the Bradley this week, has received fa- vor from a class of theatre gocfs who like a slap, dash, bang variety of com edy surrounded with song and dance, and girls. The company does not give burlesque show, but clean cut musi. cal comedy of light variety Is pre- sented with change Of bill every day. Mir. Teal himself Is 4 comedian whose songs and sayings have created hundreds of laughs 50 far this week and will add 10 the total number be- fore the final curtain Saturday night His partner in the venturei James r. Lee, has shown his versatility in eom- edy character parts 50 that his initial appearance at each performance gets for him warm welcome from the au- dience.
 Leroy Kinslow sings some catchy songs in good voice besides helping out in the character parts. The other male characters include Bert Ralph, Ernest Lapoet and Dick Smith. Mad cline Lee is cast for the heavier female parts and sings number of igood songs. Marie Barber puts an accepta- ble amount Of life and ginger into her characters and Cora May rounds out the number Of a well balanced eompa- ny. The chorus lends life to the pro duetion and have variety Of attrae- tive costumes. 50 far the company has succeeded in accomplishing. their creating an entertainment of spontaneous mirth and they have been greeted by good sized audiences at each performance whose applause de- notes that they like the Teal-Iee com pany and enjoy the nonsense with which the productions abound, as we'll as the ballads, love ditties, and popu lar songs, solos, and ehoruses.
 We haven't forgotten Baby Angeles Lee nor has anyone else who has seen her, but have purposeiy left her for a little paragraph all her own. This lit tie Miss won favor from the time she stuck her saucy little nose out from behind the wings and will keep il un- til she makes her tiual kick as she leaves the stage on her last appearance. She is as clever a little actress as has ever graced the local stage and the life and snap she puts into her songs and dances has made the hit of the week. There Is certainly future in store for her behind the footlights when she grows older if she follows the profes. sion.
