Jimmy Durante is considered the
most agreeable performer on stage
and screen to respond to invitation
for a benefit, cafe or night club op-
ening or indeed a private party.
Jimmy accepts all bids and if there
are a half dozen an evening he will
drop in awhile at each. He is
night owl of the calibre of'Ben De
CassereS and Carlos Fornaro back
in the ago of Joels. Also Durante
will never refuse to respond when
called to sing a song or bang out
some of his old Coney Island honky-
tonk airs on the piano. I am told
that Jimmy has shown remarkable
acumen for one rising SO suddenly
to success. He has invested his
money wisely, been consistent
saver, and no matter what Destiny
has in store professionally, he Is
sittin pretty. And the costers love
him in London where he Is at
present. He seems SO much like
them.

such a chunk of charm. He spent
much of his time around the cab

laxed. When May died, Mankiyell
and friend took cab to the fun
eral an hours drive from London.
