The Department Store

A comedy offering by six people. 22 min. Special set. Pretty scenery. One would thing that an act with Fred Ardath in would be very good from what he has done. This offering seems new and unless there is a great improvement in same [sic] it will never make good. Every one seems to be out of place and there is practically no plot to the offering. Act gets some laughs but not enough. Went fair.
