The "old jazz" looks like the same "old jazz" quoted by G. Cohen from
(IIRC) 1913.

The "pazazz" isn't obviously the same "pazazz"/"pizzazz" which appears
elsewhere (and later). It looks like this 1915 "pazazz" is a word for a
person (here, "George Ade"), meaning perhaps "expert" or "champion" or
"king" [figurative]?
