The Cansinos fairly reeked of
Spain. ShawlS, castanets, flashing
eyes and all that sort of thing
characterized the act. Trouble is
those shawls cost q pretty penny
and forty-six husbands will have
to buy one. Keo, Taxi and Yoki,

a pleasant surprise.
The Barr twins are undoubtedly
that. From certain regions they
look like the dual counterparts Of
the former Miss Irene Castle.
Yes, they were dancers.
Roland Robbins hoped into
seven-league boots to round out
his bill. Affable managers Of
other vaudeville houses came to
his rescue when two acts failed
to arrive. Benns and Grill took
the fifteen minutes allotted Tom
Grant and John Monroe, and the
Hickey boys were supplanted by
Dobbs, Clarke and Dare from the
Strand.

of the new Keith policy to start
