“The Ducklings”

by Louie Dacre. Songs: "Oh, Mr. Brown" Also featuring: Jean Darrow;

the fault must lie principally with her if "The Ducklings" fail to remain in the burlesque swim after the censor committee gets a peep at the show. The only redeeming feature in evidence is the intention Miss Dacre had of potting something together which would be at least out of the usual well-clogged channel of burlesque offerings. Where Miss Dacre failed principally was In her failure to consider that there was need of someone else on the stage beside herself. There were others there at times, but only to act as foils for Miss Dacre. There is one number at the opening which permits Miss Dacre time to change her costume after closing the olio, and after she takes the stage all chance of anyone else In the show getting even close to the centre vanishes until at the very finish, when one of the chorus girls introduces a dance
