Just like a woman, in't Itv BERT WIIL(X>X. tlie funny comedian. Is back again In the big city. Bert Is some comedian. Hl9 work Is excellent and be is a past master In the art of making up. All In all ne la a small sized wonder. OLLY LOGSDON has not any time for anything at present. Some mean man came right Into OUy's olSce and stole her three clocks.
