Miss Clalre is in her element, reading her lines with fine enunciation and mak- ing each point stand out with pleas ing clearness. Her ‘“let’s pretend” being a gay butterfly, is a strong re- minder of Elsie Ferguson at her best, and the emotional part of the playlet demonstrates her right to shine in stel lar roles. MHer leading man, Geoffry Kerr, is an excellent actor, and helps materially in registering a success for his star; Roger Davis, one of our sterling character actors, appears s the butler. Many curtain calls re- warded Miss Claire and her company. The added attraction is Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland Bronner in a pic turesque dance number, “‘Memorfes in which they made a pronounced hit on Broadway. The act is divided Into three scenes, the “Fire and Water,” being unusually clear for a descriptive dance. Then comes * noted chiefly for > effect, and the another demon. -uriosity, which cene in effective. vies with the first ne: Closing a bill is hard on the best artists, but Mr. and Mrs. Bron ner kept the audience in the scats until the fall of the curtain. The laughing hit last evening was furnished by Hugh Skelley, Emma Heit and a company of prefty girls. Mr. Skelley is an original ymedian who continuously introduces stunts that keep the house in laughter. Miss Heit has a clear soprano voice of much sweetness and registered a big hit in one of those weird Southern melodies, in response to continuous curtain calls. The four girls in the support are good-looking, dress band somely and dance with an experience that creates something of a sensation. Jack McLallan and Sarah, a pair of real fun makers; Josephine Har mon and Georgla Sands in pleasing melodies and comedy patter. and Lee, eccentric dancers just out of Ed. Wynn's show; the Southern Duo, Mary and Geneva Fitz, in old songs recalled, and Bononia, Ital unique musician, are other attrac numbers. The regular house attrac- tions complete the program @ 3 EARLE—Robert McKim. “The Bachelor's Bride,” a comedy both clever and amusing, featuring Robert McKim, the “villlan” of a number of screen productions, is the headline attraction this week at the Earle Theater. Miss Elsie Willlams, who wrote the piece gives the “vil. Shaw AMUSEMENTS llan” admirable support. There's nothing villainous in the little sketch but it serves more or less to correct any impression that a movie “villlan” is a despicable character. After the act, Mr. McKim explains the trials and tribulations of a photoplay “bad man.” Ben Welch, famous burlesque char- acter comedian, even after he was stricken with blindness, was given a protracted reception in a sketch called “Pal” in which he is assisted by Frank Murphy, whose face also is famillar to many. Although blind, Welch has lost none of his cunning in provoking laughter. Much of his dialogue, however, harks back to his burlesque days, but it is too good to stale with age. A gymnastic revue by a trio who label themselves “Vim, Beauty Health" is a first-class opener. Emma O'Niel, a highbrow flapper,” pleases with song and humorous dialogue, as do Seymour and Howard in a sketch, wentieth Century Love.” Jack De Lange as “King Neptune" presents, as the finale, a song and dance revue with some peppy girls who look well in bathing outfits. The principal ex: cuse for this act seems to be an ad- vertisement for the forthcoming bath- ing beauty pageant at Atlantic City.
