"The Society Girls."
A "girl act" worth while from curtain to curtain. Three principals and six well selected choristers, all doing their best. One of the boys who plays straight is not a small timer. Besides having a pleasing voice he is a nimble dancer and has appearance. The other male member is a "boob," getting good comedy results at times while at others his work lags and his start gets little. The girls are dressed in creations befitting a Broadway production. One who leads the number aside from being good to look upon is clever at kicking and has an abundance of vivaciousness. The turn opens in "one." The straight announces they are minus the end man for the society minstrel show. The boob is secured, the action going to "three" with the usual semi-circle of chairs. Several musical numbers include "Jane" and "Bird of Paradise." A turn that can headline the biggest of small time bills and has a chance for some of the big time houses.
