''Toot- loot Player Can

By THE PLAYGOER.

Consider Miss Louise Groody.
She is just little thing about five
feet high, chic, pretty and snappy
as any little I9-year-old girl you
will find. Naturally you would ex-
pect from such a description a girl
who spent her life trying to live
up to the picture.
But not Louise. She Is the most
utilitarian laborer We nave met in
many leap years. First Miss Groody
graces the program OF "Toot Toot,"
the musical comedy which is playing
a weeks engagement at the National.
Miss 'Groody is playing a real part
in this piece, speaks right out loud
and does some dances which we are
led to believe from advance photo
graphs are quite easy to look upon. So
much for her vocation.
she's Summer Farmer.
But does Miss GroOdy rest when the
season is over? She does not, for
down in one corner of the State OF
Texas, little Louise owns the title
to farm of as many acres as those
Texas farms have. And she runs II
herself personally in summer-by wire
in winter. The attic of she farmhouse
serves as a studio where the little lady
scatters oil on canvass very harmon
iously. In fact one of her brush ef-
forts has reached the salon.
But the chief feature Of this farm
is its young zoo which also answers

duced for us last night several medals

this energetic lady sat in her hotel
last night and did as perfect a row OF
knitting as we ever saw. In fact the
only time she missed a stitch, was
when a lOng-distance call came in
from New York. Snakes, pictures,
knitting. dancing and the poor inter-
viewer were alike forgotten for ten
minutes while the wires warmed.
She confessed after she hung up the
receiver that it was him. and that he
was a young officer in the New York
infantry and that he expected to go
"over there in a few days. We SYM
pathized-but she gayly announced
that before the trip over she would be
a war bride-so there you are-hope
we have not spoiled the picture for
any young man who might see Miss
Groody this week-but it is true.
Like all people, Miss Groody likes
publicity-but like few of them she
admits it. But she made one desper-
ate request-she asked us not to say
that she is fat-and we haven't.
