Maude Ryan is making three changes, very quickly, including shoes, stockings and hats to match her dresses, while Chas. Ryan is making one only. Miss Ryan has a handsome blue dress for the opening, with a renaissance lace covering of the same color, and sings well “I’m Going to Get a Man,” a new “coon” song of good calibre. There is a long wait between the third and fourth change during which the talk is introduced, and this might be mended.
There is considerable brightness in the talk, and the songs are lively as well as popular. It is a good number in "one" and will be better when Mr. Ryan decides he is not a second George M. Cohan. When that obvious point is reached perhaps Mr. Ryan will stop wearing the soft hats which look so poorly upon him, and get down to work with more changes, even though he must stop using Cohan's song sung in "Fifty Miles from Boston."
