Babette. featured star with the big
Wonder Show at the Gayety this
week, to own a chain OF islands to be
used as summer resorts by the elite
of our metropolitan cities.
She confided this as she reviewed,
somewhat dolefully, her experiences
last summer in having a colony of
islands washed away off the Florida
coast. where the Gayety star planned
the foundation of a chain Of famous
resorts. 1t has long been the plan Of
Mile. Babette to own a chain of these
places. Her first speculation ended
in bursted bubbles, but she has other
things in view.
For instance, It is now her big idea
to erect costly show places and hotels
on a set Of tiny islands in Lake
Michigan. which were decided to her
by her father. Being of French
parentage, Mile. Babette has come
into considerable territory settled and
occupied by her forbears around Lake
Michigan.
The islands were never considered
very valuable, according to the bur-
iesque favorite, until friends sug-
eested the plan to her some seasons
ago. Then it was she acquired pos.
session Of the Florida coast isles, only
TO wake up one fine morning and
find them disappeared, washed away
by storm.
There are no heavy tides and no
such storms on inland bodies of water,
she reasons. and this time she is
sure 10 succeed.
Mile. Babette has been in the show
world for eight years. She was first
in light opera, then came an extended
engagement abroad, and then she

idol Of the burlesque fans along tho
route of the Columbia wheel shows.
