Mrs. “Doc” Munyon showcased some handsome gowns while attempting to sing. For her second last song she ripped off her outer garment leaving her in a slinging gown “which probably would be called a creation in any neighborhood but Eighth and Race streets.” For the last number Mr. Lund looked as if he had been dressed by Melville Ellis and wore a tassel on his cane.
“Up to Wednesday, Old Doc Munyon had not appeared on the scene to look his wife over, but "Doc" hasn't been overlooking anything if reports are correct. Some weeks ago the government separated Doc Munyon from some coin for his self-confessed method of fooling the public. So far Mrs. Doc has not been molested. There are three reasons for Mrs. Doc remaining in vaudeville, her pride, nerve and the old doctor's pills, but oven with Mr. Lund and those "Beau Brummels From New York" old doc's trade mark "There Is Hope" looks as though it would never stand up for the family.”
Mrs. "Doc" is accompanied by the "Beau Brummels of New York" and Merritt W. Lund. She and Mr. Lund perform couple of numbers. Their first selection is called "Flirtation," followed by "I'm Looking for Some One To Love Me." Lund then sings one number alone at the piano before the "Beau Brummels" join the stage. They danced a few steps and then Mrs. Doc tried a Quaker number and performed a costume change. The last song was "Teasing." It was well selected.
There were several curtains raised for Mrs. Doc at the finish, though there was no reason for it except to give the "bell hop" a chance to hand Mrs. Doc a prop bouquet.
