I don’t see any excuse for these men being in the business at all. They dance fairly well I am willing to admit and the act that they do, if presented by a couple of girls would be all right, but for a couple of great big strong men coming out and singing a little dinky coon song and doing three or four steps and the entire act occupy 8 minutes, it is decidedly like taking money under false pretentions. 8 min in one, 3 shows.
