Uplift of Vaudeville
There has, perhaps, never been a season when
audcvllto boasted of more big stars Thero has
been, during the past half dozen years, a raising
of standards In vaudeville so that now, at the
flrst-class houses, ono can enjoy nn entertain
ment of as high quality as at the regular thea
tre. Until she appears In a new play In January,
Lthcl Barrymore, one of the latest recruits, will
appear In audevlllc Kitty Gordon and Elsie
Jnnls hae been headllncrs. Recently, nt KelthV
In this city, we saw Mile. Gcneo dance delight
fully, and Blanche Ring sing captKatlngly In a
sketch MKs Ring declared, while she was horo,
that sho enjojs her audevllle performances
more than those In musical comedies. The en
cores were more heartily vociferous! Douglass
Fairbanks, Edwin Stevens, Carter de Haven,
Clifton Crawford are all traveling the circuit.
Among other top-notch stars there aro booked
for ippearanccs at Keith's, Emma Cams. Ger
trude Hoffmann, in her dances; Nora Bayea,
Wllla Holt Wakefield and, great among singers,
David BLspham, tho baritone.
Speaking with Manager Jordan, of Keith's,
yesterday, we commented on the Increasingly
high standaid of vaudeville entertainments and
thu unusual galaxy of dramatic stars booked
thit. season.
"Well, I'll tell jou," said Mr. Jordan. "AVhen
Madam Bernhardt went into audevllle somo
years ago sho opened tho field to stage stars.
after Bernhardt had appeared others felt they
could enter vaudeille and not lose caste. Actors
find vaudeville advantageous. Thoy get consid
erable advertising, play before greater numbers
of peoplo and make friends, who. later, when
they appear In plnjs, go to see them. Moreover,
thoy pla only 15 minutes to a half hour each
day which means llttlo work compared to play
ing In drama."
One of the reasons for the supcrexccllence of
many audcvllle attractions this season Is that
big European vaudevllllans, on account of the
war, have come to America. Then, with tho
theatricals affected by the business depression,
many producers are holding off Important pro
ductions until January, when they look for a
reaction. Until then stars havo found lt profit
able, both financially and In keeping before the
public, to appear In skits and sketches
