Maude Lambert and Ernest R. Ball were a riot opening the second half after the “Topics of the Day.” There is nothing like the singing of one time popular songs by the writer to stir the listless palms of a vaudeville crowd. This pair make their act a family party, in perfect good taste and done in a spirit of agreeable intimate badinage that communicates itself to any audience. They somehow seem to convey across the footlights the atmosphere of “regular folks.” Stage women of ample figure might do well to study Miss Lambert’s scheme of dressing. In the last gown she wears she is a picture of stateliness where a single wrong line might easily have given the impression of bulk.
