The boys play a harp and violin. Both in Italian dress, one sings "When Dreams Come True," with a harp accompaniment. His voice does not suit the song, unless he was somehow effected Sunday evening (Sept. 24). The harpist performed a rag, "Where the River Shannon Flows," doing quite nicely. They finished with "Every Little Movement," the violinist inserting bits of comedy. This made the boys the hit of the show.
The De Schelle Bros., along the lines of the Lyons and Yosco act, should do quite well on the "small time." However, they cannot expect to go further with their present act. They may develop into something, but until then they are a safe small time booking. "A "Hell" is used for a laugh. Before it dies or is driven out of vaudeville by some managers who have sense enough to realize what it is doing to their performances "Hell" will become known as the greatest laugh maker of this decade. It has "Damn" pushed off the board."
