ATHENIAN nasium. The music reminds me of the nursery rhymes I used to know. To the piano accompaniment of Mary Hair, Rita Frisbie is teaching folk dancing to some youngsters. They have charge of the physical training in the New York public schools. With a blare of horns a busy street crossing comes into view. Dressed in the neat uniform of a traffic cop I see Hazel Middaugh. As the traffic moves on, she nods to a couple of ambulance drivers. Will wonders never cease? They are George Overfield and Markle Wells. It’s to be expected, when one thinks how fond they were of hospitals. And what is this large white building? It looks like a sanitarium, and sure enough it is. Two nurses are walking together on the lawn and are in earnest conversation. One is tall and slender and seems to take her work very seriously, but who would ever forget Nora’s jolly laugh or Clara’s ability to work? I hear a typewriter and I also see one, but who is the very capable girl running it? Pauline Leonard, to be sure; and there is Seth reading from a magazine an article written by Professor Carle of Harvard University. Mr. Grodivant plays his part well as a very successful editor of the city’s largest paper. Back from a busy road I see a small white lunchroom. This is run by Alta Middaugh with the valuable assistance of her cook Pauline Pruyne, noted for her Boston baked beans. A saleswoman stops her little Ford and gets out to enter the lunchroom. She takes her satchel from force of habit and on it I see in bold black letters “Chew Kuycandall’s Gum,” and who carries it but Loretta Bustin! Next I can hear a cackling noise and a large white hen appears by magic on the screen. A sign which this extraordinary bird carries in her beak says, “Arnold, Miller Merithew, Poultry Farms.” A shot shatters the quiet of the room as, with a whir of wings, a flock of wild geese rise honking into the air. The disturber of their haunt appears with a smoking gun in his hand. As he stoops to gather the spoils of his brilliant markmanship I find that this woodsman is no other than Franklin Manahan. The music changes now to the chant of many voices which sounds like a jumble of Chinese lingo, and how Agness Koehler and Dorothea Otto can understand these little yellow people of the East is more than I can understand. They are truly missionaries in a strange land. On Broadway is an establishment run by the famous modiste, Cuddeback. Her model appears wearing one of her latest Persian gowns. In the trade mark of this I see the words designed by Edna Griffin, which assures a very quick sale. This great orator whom I hear cannot be Patrick Henry come to life, even though it sounds like him. It’s Pat, all right, but it is the “Pat” Everhart that we all used to know. Far down a dusty country road is a scene which makes every motorist tremble. It is a car in distress, but here comes a Good Samaritan, a garage man who proves to be Wayne McEntire. The damsel in distress by a trick of fate is Aline LaMont, who has an agency for selling Studebakers. And now I have given the report of the proper-sonalitic to the best of my ability, and if you doubt the veracity of it, please consult Bob Page because he was the one who is responsible for the invention of it.
