...Valodia Vestoff led the dancers, both in skill and pleasant ability, with Ula Sharon a close second. Never have we seen a more realistic interpretation of an Apache dance, moreover, than that given by Gretchen-Eastman and Donald Kerr. Nor a more complete travesty than the one staged by Joe 'Brown and Gordon Dooley; this pair were the funniest part of the show, and whenever they appeared kept the audience in a continual series of hysterics.

...Joe Jackson, in his well-known character of a half-witted tramp, kept the audience convulsed without speaking a word, by attempting to steal a bicycle. The Ziegler sisters in their dance act set an example which might well be followed by other stage dancers. The Century Revue, with Jimmy Hussey, was well executed, and was the one thing necessary to complete a well rounded-out program...
