Patrick and Otto

Singing and comic dialogue.
Patrick and Otto, two men with nonchalant manner of delivery, failed to find the response which it seemed they merited by a run of small talk regarding soldiering on the Mexican border. The dialogue had wit, and because these men refused to hand it to the boneheads smeared with thick syrup of low comedy the west side kitchen mechanics and shoeclerks failed to rise to the bait. Patrick and Otto should have a trial on bigger time, and might get over amazingly there with their artless method of slipping over nifties. They finished with a harmonized song, which they did not take seriously, and neither did the house.
