The act was twenty-four minutes long.
Three boys dressed in military costume sing comedic songs. One is the “straight”, one is “a long skinny youth” and the other is “a rather fleshy individual.” Two change into sack suits for the finale and the other stout member does a female “coon wench” impersonation.
The beginning was too long and should be cut down, but the rest of the act was one of the "fastest moving comedy offerings that has been seen hereabouts on either the big or small time for many moons." The act "cleaned up" the bill.
