the mild appreciation of Miss Shir-

while the mention of the orches-
ira that supports her, nay, holds
her up and stands on its own feet,
Is printed meekly in tiny agate?
That, my dears. is another mys-
terry. Al Roth, the dancer of the
act, is one of those acrobatIc

After chasing butterflies and
gamboling about the stage at a
great rate to the apparent high
delectation of spectators. for about
fifteen minutes, the Frank Kellam-
Patricia O'Dare combination de-
veloped a Bolshevik crick in the
back and faded out a trifie. Little
Miss O'Dare can sing and she is
pretty as a piece OF French pastry.
and Kellam is full of "quips and
auirks and wanton wiles." They're
a great pair. But they should patch
up the rear of that act.
