Mabel DeYoung

This “Pianalog” act ran for nine minutes. DeYoung sings the “regulation published songs” with a pleasing voice. She plays the piano and sings for two out of her four songs.

Van Brunt and Moore

The act was nineteen minutes long. Moore is a “stout jovial young man” who plays the piano with a unique method of delivery and has considerable stage presence. Van Brunt is “a youthful Joe Howard and Andrew Mack rolled into one.” His stage presence will also help him significantly in the future.

Three Cooke Sisters

The act was ten minutes long. The act was formerly a quartet and sings rag numbers. The trio looks and sings well.

Burkes and Richmond

The act was eight minutes long. The two women perform a “Sister Act”, though they are not sisters and do not dance or do comedy. They sing well and present an attractive appearance in their many gowns. One of the girls does an Irish number, but it does not seem to fit into the act.

May Green

The act was ten minutes long. Miss Green does “kid” impersonations with songs and one dance.

Mon Amour

The duo of Miss Amelia Stone and her husband Mr. Armand Kaliss has grown significantly as they finally take vaudeville seriously in their new opera. The performance was reviewed on the front page of three Chicago dailies at a time when only a grand opera opening “makes” the front page.
