Solly Ward and company ran a close second to the topliners in an enjoyment sketch entitled “Babies.” Ward is one of the best dialect come- dians before the public, working on the lines of Sam Bernard, and he had little trouble securing hearty laughs. His leading lady, Marion Murray, and Jeanne Eliot are very clever actors and helped the star materially to drive away dull care. Sketches this season at Keith's have been very ood and “Babies” is certainly one of the best. The Gellis opened the program with a wonderful display of artistic tum- bling; J. Keirn Brennen and Jimmy Rule follow with a singing turn; Bay- onne Whipple and Walter Huston presented their old turn, “Shoes,” but it went over as well as ever; Vine Daly sang high-class songs in good voice and danced artistically: Frank Gaby gave a bewildering display of ventriloquism; Mallia-Burt company were seen in “The Baggage Smash- rs" and had considerable original comedy to introduce: Pathe pictures and Current Topics rounded out the program.
