One of the strongest comedy acts in vaudeville
is that of Luce and Luce, instrumentalists, who
are now playing the Keith houses, using Remick
numbers exclusively, including "Alice, Where
Art Thou Going?" which, they declare, is the
biggest hit they have ever featured.
Hardie Langdon, the popular singing come-
dienne, now prominently appearing in vaude-
ville, is receiving very flattering notices in the
western papers on account of her clever rendi-
tions of such popular Remick numbers as "Is
It Warm Enough for You?" and the famous
