Act Portrays Dream Come True la Featured by Good Slnglngr and Good Dancing?. r.iaDorate ana on the scale of a miniature musical play is the headline act at Pantages this week, with plenty of diversified entertainment to precede it and an animal act to follow. The headline is entitled "A Fireside Reverie" and is a dream come true for a pleasant chap who drops into a slumber beside the fireplace. While he dreams the pictures on his walls, a quartet of former flames, are reincar nated and appear in the flesh. With them appears a man friend of the dreamer's and on this as a plot the festivities hang merrily. Everyone sings and dances and there Is lots of happy comedy. Del Sherrard Is the dreamer and Jack Princeton is the college pal. A note of comedy is sounded when the pal dons the attire of an elderly dame and philanders about as a chaperon for the ex-flames. The music is tuneful and the act is scenically interesting. Joe Parsons and Dave Irwin have a sensational song number called, "A Message From the Front." Their pleas ing personalities, clean cut and direct way of presenting their act counts for quite as much as their beautiful big voices Their selections most of them of a patriotic nature are delightful. Another pair of entertainers are the Wilsons, brothers, plump and happy, who exchange merry chatter and yodel in excellent voices. Buhla Pearl is an attractive blonde with smart toggery who puts over a group of pleasing peppery songs and a story or two. An act above the ordinary in every way opens the bill. It is that of Lord and Fuller, a cheery chap and a pretty girl, beautifully appareled. They offer "bits of this and that," accenting on the comedy. They juggle, play the violin and ride cycles and do it all mighty well. Mile. Lillian Aurora, a young lion tamer, presents an act In which a huge Nubian lion rides on a horse. A clever dog is also in the act. An added act this week is a sketch, "Society Versus Stage," written by Jessie Nores who plays the leading role, assisted by Maybelle Kerns and Madeleine Osborne.
