The curtain shows the outside of a butcher shop with several adjoining store windows displaying the names of several booking agents. A portion of the meat shop interior is also seen. Raymond and Caverly gave the audience time to read the humorous signs; in fact, the men waited too long before appearing. Al Raymond was dressed as a policeman, his partner was the butcher.
Raymond and Cavalry showed no fear in presenting their new German act.
They open with patter, all brightly new, and got it over in tip top shape. Their chatter varies with Raymond putting Caverly through the "swivel service examination."
There is no dwelling at length upon any topic or confusion over words. The comedians continue to make mince meat of the English language, and the new act is entertaining.
