Fanny Brice is Baby Snooks only once each week on the air. The rest of the time she's an enviably suave, gracious, mature personality.
By Mary Jane Fulton
OCALLY, Fanny Brice is one of the youngest radio stars on the air — Baby Snooks. "Actually," asserts Fanny, who originated the character of "Daddy's" exasperating little girl some twenty-five years ago, when she was one of Ziegfeld's famed beauties, "Snooks helps me to feel younger."
Anyone who has seen her do one of her Baby Snooks radio shows can easily understand this. She literally changes from a middle-aged person to a four-and-a-half-year-old youngster. She becomes Baby Snooks, and as such, she explains, "I have to feel younger. I can't help it." Then she reminds you: "A woman is only as old as she feels!"
Fanny is not only growing older gracefully, but joyously. When she isn't busy rehearsing or broadcasting, she's busy with one of several interesting pastimes. She's redecorated many of her friends' homes for them. If she feels the urge, out come her paints and brushes. As she sits before the clean canvas, whatever comes to her mind to paint goes down on it. So her work reflects the same care-free, vital

originality which she exhibits all the time, and which you cannot associate with age. She believes that every woman should have some hobby, aside from her work. For no matter how much she likes her job, and how busy she is with it, a hobby provides a complete change. It also acts as a tonic to her spirits, which is very important, Fanny feels, in keeping mentally and physically alert.
Fanny doesn't claim not to grow tired. Like every active person she, too, must call time out for recharging her energy. After a tiring day, she heads for a hot bath. Into the bath water go a few drops of sweetscented bath oil — just enough to perfume and soften the water, and to scent and soften her skin, too. With a faint wink at modesty, she leaves the bathroom door open so that the fragrance of the bath oil will drift into her bedroom. When she's relaxed in her perfumed bath for a few minutes, she uses a stiff brush and lots of soap suds to give herself a good scrubbing. This stirs up her circulation, and makes her feel marvelously refreshed.
Her favorite exercise is walking — a helpful hint, beauty-wise. Because of it her complexion is clear and healthy-looking, although she's a grandmother; her figure and movements as lithesome and graceful as those of a much younger woman.
"When you begin thinking about yourself, then 'yourself becomes your worst enemy." states Fanny.
