...baffled last week by an offense little short of criminal but against which there is no Paris law. One evening at the opera, Tenor Franz was in the midst of a favorite aria when out upon the stage from her box climbed a young person later identified as one Sylvia Peres of Italy.

The audience is likewise not surprised when, deprived of Geraldine, he goes honeymooning with her sister Elizabeth, the clever virgin. The veteran Robert Warwick is properly apparelled and deep-voiced as Chandler. A small, piquant brunette named Sylvia Sidney makes the wisecracking Elizabeth thoroughly fresh and annoying...
...addition to all this there is a dog act, one Jack Osterman whose patter is pretty dreadful, and Miss Sylvia Clark who may possibly have feelings so we just won't say anything. The good act is an acrobatic one in which one Pete Michon succeeds in throwing himself about the stage in a manner never to be equalled again, unless he comes around for a return engagement...
