The Sennett comedy, “The Fireside Brewer,” with news pictures and laughable cartoon pictures, complete an enjoyable bill throughout. “Nine 0’Clock.” “Nine O'Clock,” a farcical sketch presented by Frank Davis, heads the vaudeville bill at the Strand Theater this week.

A counter plot is the bucolic love affair of Deborah Stubbs and Cal Gallup, plaved by Sylvia Field and Leonard Doyle, which of itself might be made the theme of a pretty play., The other members of the cast are Marie L.

Can’t Go 'Round Without You,” was given, and a half dozen curtain calls followed. The prima donna was in splendid voice. ® A pretentious dancing and singing number, under the direction of Mas- ters and Kraft, and carrying the title “On With the Dance” received an emphatic indorsement. The leaders, exceptionally clever dancers, have with them Elsie La Mont, Grace Mas. ters and Louise Dale, pretty girls who also dance and sing well. Many cur- tain calls rewarded the offering. Other acts included a dramatic sketch, “The Cheap Woman,” in which Sarah Padden appeared to advantage as a character actre: Swift and Kelley, in a comedy number with bright lines: Scanlon Denno Brothers and Scanlon, ood singers and dancers; Harry Tighe and Edna Leedon, in bits from musical comedies; Karl Karey, in_ “musical cartoons on_the piano”; Car!
