more welcome.

busy answering encores. They're all
huddled together in n, snappy little
paylet in which dad appears as Martin
Connolly. the cab driver. and the
youngsters are-well they're just his
youngsters.
Each of the youngsters has an indi-
vidual talent which. standing nlone.
( would prove highly interesting. They
sing and dance and do some clever bits
of acting and. of course, Eddie. Jr..
does his usual imitation of his clever
dad. limitations of the elder Foy have
become quite frequent in vaudeville. But
tHtrt HHS NEVER UNcH take OH done as
well as Junior gets 1t over.
David Schooler has a clever singing
and dancing act that demonstrates to
good advantage the pianistic abilities
Of Schooler and the cleverness Of Louise
Nolan. Ellen Boyle. Ina Alcova and
Winifred Dean. three Of them singers
and the other dancer.
Johnny Burke in Drafted" has a
monologue stunt that gets a laugh a
minute. William and Taylor have n
dancing surprise that really surprises
because of its unusual cleverness. Harry
Moore does some interesting stunts as a
paper manipulator. Lois Bennett has
q sweet voice and she sings some at

n mule in Madam Jean Berzac's Circus,
an act the youngsters surely enjoy. Yost
