24 min. F.S. 2 shows. On at 9:06. As a Holiday feature this act will challenge any children’s act in Vaudeville. It contains some of the most novel and grotesque stage-effects ever planned. The scene itself is romantic and the music and songs are fully in keeping with the spirit of the play. Of course, the principal interest is centered about the work of the pets, – dog, cat, parrot and the rest. The action is swift, and every minute offers a new idea and another laugh. As a children’s feature it will probably be as strong a drawing-card as Buster Gabriel, which is saying a good deal. The work of Abrahams as the cat, and Alfred Latel as the dog was particularly happy and rich in humorous surprises. Applause and laughing were constant throughout the entire act, and the close was immense, showing that the act was fully appreciated by young and old. The town will certainly be talking about this feature and it will draw strong with all classes.
