"Pal of Mine" and "Kiss Me Again."
The name suggests the artists' former line of work — concert. Vaudeville has a place for the act just as it is framed, its success depending a good deal on the correct spotting. The greatest possible wrong and error would be to bill it for closing. It will die there. The special silk hanging in "one" discloses a beautifully set, interior, in "three," with three girls"; at a piano, violin and cello, respectively. Leo Edwards is given program credit for the special arrangement of the "smart program." The girls are capable instrumentalists, with the pianiste possessing a fine, resounding soprano. Better class numbers, but which are more familiar to the audiences would help a god deal. "Pal of Mine" was about the most familiar of the melodies played, unless one includes a strain of "Kiss Me Again," which is included in a theme hinging around Victor Herbert's melodies. Despite the late hour, the act was heartily appreciated by all those that remained in. The violiniste possesses a distinct charm and verve and dash, which helps a great deal. The artistes' names are programmed as Margan De Verem, Marvelle Armand and Grace Taylor, although their specialties are not mentioned.
