There are lots of clever people on the Keith program this week. Dainty Emma Halg and Olin How- land oecupled the headline positio and their unique dance offering full demonstrated thelr fitness for the e: alted place. Miss Halg’has fully re- covered from the accident that befell her while with the Music Box Revue. She was heartily welcomed back to | the vaudeville ranks. In addition to | being one of our cleverest dancers, | Miss Haig is a comedienne of origi- nality and scared one of the big hits of the evening. Her partner, Mr. Howland, also is an exceptionally good dancer and an actor of worth. The pair's yokel and movie dance is very funny. Both were called before the curtain several times by prolonged applause. A new couple to these parts, Clara Barry and Orval’ Whitlege, have an act of original singing and patter. Miss Barry has been with several of the big revues in recent years and stands in the front rank of enter- tainers. She is a quick thinker and a comedienne of ability. Mr. Whit- lege, a clean-cut comedian, is a splen- did foil for her work. At the end they had to bow many times in ac- knowledgment of hearty plause. An entertaining sketch entitled “Toot Sweet™ also scored a big hit, Miss Janet being ably supported in it by Byron Hawkins, Willlam Rand and Roger Allen The s cerns i doughbo: return to France, after five years' absence, looking for and discovering the sweetheait of the big war days. The lines are clever and the players give a .peppery pres: entation. The Hemstreet Singers, four charm- ing girls with fine voices, also score a big hit; the Aerial De Groffs offer a fine gymnastic act: Dorothy and Rosetta Ryan are good in a mirth and melody turn; “Senator” Murphy, monologist, makes a hit with a dia- lect discussion of the topics «of the day; Amazon and Nile furnish a sen- sational contorticn act, and the regu- lar house attractions fill out the big bill. EARLE—Tillis and La Rue Co. The Earle this week presents a bill headlined by Tillls and La Rue Co. not by the Maryland Collegiates, as announced in the advance notices. An attractive dance offering, “Fanciful Capers,” is presented by the Tillis and La Rue Co., replete with good dancing and fine singing, to which the Bay Sisters and Seiler and Gibbons contribute materially. “Dancing Husbands,” a novelty number execut ed by this quartet. was nicely done and drew much applause. Another dancing act, headed by Mille. Delrio, tango and apache danc sisted by Fidel Trazabal, toria Arbella and the “Origi gentine Players,” is a Spanis of song melodles .and dancing, to which Senorita Arbella contributes the songs and Mlle. Delrio the dances. Delrio’s apache dance was es- pecially well done. Russ, Dock and Peat, offer “Bits of Nonsense” in with some fine acro- batic stunts and a little comedy thrown in for good measure; Frank Meehan and_ Efleen bring out a new line of comedy in ‘“The Goose is Cook- ed,” which is good for many laughs, and O'Nell and Plunkett have a black- face act “Red Hot,” that starts out badly with some old, jokes but gets better toward the en: The photoplay is * a romantic comed: Reynolds with: I George Arthur, Ethel Clayton.

The setting for this act is beautiful. Norman and Clarice Worth have a dance number worth while that runs through practically all known and some unknown dances to the music of Ashley Paige’s xvlophone; Mason and Gwynne turn on blackface clown- ing and assorted flapdoodle; and the mysterfous “C.

It is the story of a modern Adam and Eve, surnamed Smith, with the - action pivoting about ~Eve's eternal wail, “I have nothing to wear."” . Adam and Eve Smith are an at- tractiws young couple, living moder- ately on Adam's income derived from his prosperous little plumbing shop, when Eve is accidently run down by Josef Andre, smart male modiste, |'who takes her to his nearby work | shops, where she quickly recovers. | Her' clothes are badly mussed, how- | ever, and Andre orders attendants to ! clothe her in things from his own | | stock. has ever had a weakness | | for beautiful things, and when she | sees herself arraved in splendor such |as she has never dreamed of. and { when Andre, the susceptible, discov- |ers her to be his “inspiration” and | offers her a job as mannequin—well, | what could a poor girl do? Well, she does it, and, of course, Adam finds it out and is about to say ‘“good-by" forever- and ever, when Eye's re- pentance wins him back and they patch things up. 7 The story, which is light and frothy, practically evolves into a style show, the major part of the action taking place in the shop of Andre, who presents a score or more of pret- girls in exotic costumes. George O'Brien is stalwart_and deterrhined | as Adam. and Olive Borden vivacious | and beautiful. as the modern Eve.| | The acting honors, however. go to Andre de Beranger. whose imperso- | nation of the effeminate designer | excellent.
