& MAJESTIC (...)

A novelty act was presented by the Werner-Amoros Co.

Besides acrobatics and juggling they are also

musicians of no mean ability and indulge in some pantomimic

work. A Charlie Chaplin imitation, although passe,

was well done by one of the men. The female impersonation

by another member was well carried out during

the turn and proved a surprise at the finish. Though worthy

of better attention the Five Belmonts, diabolo

and hoop experts, worked to a walkout audience.

      doesn‘t it? But there was nothing in it for Charlie,

      because he made up as a woman to get out of the worst

      batch of trouble he had ever gotten himself into.

      Nevertheless, it is funny for you, who are just looking

      on at him. Charlie began flirting with girls. Then

      he got into the mess and made a woman of himself

      to avoid being discovered. After that he simply

      couldn‘t help flirting with the men. Then it is just one

      laugh after another.

      ON a bench in the park three people, a man, a woman,

and a young and beautiful girl, were sitting.“ (...)

      „At that moment, across the sward in back of the bench

on which they sat, a young man came walking.“ (...)
