Antrobus celebrates the inaugural Of the machine
age by milking a mammoth, the village dog
catcher resigns after spotting his first dinosaur
and Talluah camps all over the joint.
IN THE first act Tallulah seems determined
TO min first prize for making the funniest face
Nth her head stuck in paper bag.
HOWEVER she carries the thing along with
her hokum until the pulmotor gets there.
THE SECOND act Is captured by Florence
Reed who plays a gypsy fortune steler at Atlantic
City. Tallulah camps In this act too with good
results.
TALLULAH plays beauty prize winner and
flashes a swell set Of gams Which makes her
head look like it belonged on another umbrella.
THIS act UindS up NTH Nodhs flood Which
indicates that Atlantic City's sewerage system is
Just as bad eUer
IN ADDITION TO the flood there is also a
bouiabaisse of fire, pestilence. war plague OF
locusts and the ice age. Sweeten to taste.
