Odds and Ends Was Fairly Good Show at Athens
The late vaudeville presentation started at 9 15 and dragged for the audience with a tedious wait. The program lacked jugglers and strong man stunts but had two comedians Sherman and Malvey who drew laughs as the pit filled. Sallie Taylor's voice stood out and Moving-picture Mary amused, though not fresh. The minstrel setting and costumes pleased though uncertainly colored.
