THIS WEEK'S ORPHEUM BILL
Personality, individuality, peculiar
ity and popularity are the keystones
upon which Miss Itae Samuels has
built her vaudeville reputation and
from these four keystones she has
,-rected a structure which she calls
"The I3lue Streak of Vaudeville." A
blue streak is supposed to, and prob
ably has, the speed of a chain of
liRhtninR, and this is why Miss
Samuels has selected to call her ar
tistic edifice a blue streak.
Frances PrUchard will head next
week's bill with a company, all mem
bers of which are similarly endowed.
The result is that the assemblage
which she calls "A Dance Duel,"
bubbles and sparkles like a fairy
brook in early spring. With her will
