MANY ARTISTIC ACTS
IN SHOW AT KETTH'S
Melville Ellis and Irene Bor-
doni Head Big Musical
Bill Which Pleases

Art IN the extreme permeates the show
at keith's. II bobs up persistently giving
the performance a tone which is de-
cidediy '1yceum.esque"
One cannot help but wonder should this
demand for class" continue II the word
vaudeville" will not eventually give way
to the word musicale" or concert just
as vaudeville succeeded variety"
BY way Of illustration Melville Ellis,
who headlines with Miss Irene BordonL
plays the piano amid orange tinted silk
Ike cycloramic Surroundings. dotted with
pretty medalions Miss Bordoni sings in
various gowns. The pair made decided
hit, due largely to the efforts Of Mr.. Ellis.
Continuing the artistic idea. Burton
Daniels and Lester Conrad appeared be-
fore a beautiful dark plush drop In piano
and violin selections They offered classi-
cal and popular numbers which stirred the
hearts Of the music lovers, who showered
the somewhat youthful artists with ap.
plause.
Beautiful gray hauglngs provided the
atmosphere for Mile. Vera Sablna, a re-
markably gifted dancer, who presented
Fantasies of the Dance" She was as
sisted by Cleveland Bronner. without
any blowing of trumpets this agile couple
produced n series of dances which was
about the best seen at Keiths this season.
The artistic idea was even carried to
ball bouncing" act, shown by the Alex
ander Brothers. They bounced rubber
balls In expert fashion before a red plush
drop and by way of emphasizing art wore
dress suits. But they delivered the goods
as far as ability was concerned.
The regular stage scenery was used by
Frances Nordstrom. William Pinltham and
company in the comedy, IAN Wrong" The
playlet, by Miss Nordstrom, pictures an
unhappy married couple, whose woes are
due TO the fact that the husband prefers
hOOlKa n Wi Gba noTc
him for his Indifference, and In mo-
ment of hysteria deplores the fact that
he is so terribly correct and tiresome.
The wife then falls asleep and dreams
that her husband is really crook, who
kills a man who comes to unmasll him
pistol shot awRkens her from the
dream. The dream is acted in reality
by the husband, and the wife Is so
glad that it is not true that she loves
her husband better than ever.
Ruby Norton and Sammy Lee presented
an act Of concentrated quality 1t was n
case of merit every minute In the way of
songs and dances. They received the kind
of applause which augurs big type in the
billing at an early date.
New songs in snappy style were offered
by Marguerite Farrell. who made her first
Philadelphia appearance. She and the
audience became friends quickly and it's a
safe bet that she'll drop around asr,n.
Foster Ball and Ford West, in a milt. ry
sRit, were a hit as usual. An excellent |
animal act presented by Captain Gruber |
and Mile. Adelna closed the show.
