2 shows, 22 min, open in 2, close in 1. Well-known vocal novelty. This afternoon there were some trouble with the carbons, at times the pictures flickering out altogether. I don’t think the picture part of it has any value in this house, or but very little, but the quintette of men are excellent as vocalists. The song ‘My Rosary’ went very big and they were compelled to respond to an encore, ‘In My Oldsmobile,’ which I promptly cut. The can advettise [sic] their autos on billboards or change to ‘automobile.’
