Emma Haig and Lou Lockett

The furious tempo of Miss Haig's stepping was too much even for the admirable orchestra led by Harry Rogers, probably the best orchestra leader (vaudeville) in the country. She found it necessary to admonish the pit to give her more pep, which they did. That number in which Lockett strolls across the stage whistling the tune of a blue song, and arousing the demure Emma to a realization of what terpsichorean syncopation means in the life of a young woman is a classic, and the dance itself is breathless and beautiful.
