MABEL LEAVES THREE NAMES BEHIND
By MARSHALL LORIMER
There was a time when “MICKY” was on everybody’s tongue,
From Children barely toddling, and Old Folks nearly done,
Until there came our “MOLLY-O” as charming as a song,
With its hidden veil cf tear-drops, and true whole-hearted fun. Each came at that right moment, when we wanted it the most, Then having entered in each heart, in turn gave up the ghost.
Now comes a most romantic theme, to add to MABEL’S fame — With Spanish backgrounds to enhance our dear “SUZANNA’S” name. Our MABEL NORMAND there disports from Peon, to greater heights,
Until she takes us step by step, with loveliness, and ART,
In such a manner that we feel, like she the new delights
That only ARTISTS feel — who know they’ve really played the part!
No one of us can say we did three things in life just right;
Not so with Mabel Normand, for three NAMES she leaves behind, To carry forward thru the years to greet our Children’s sight — You’ve guessed them— “MICKY,” “MOLLY-O” and “SUZANNA” in your mind!
Such Pictures cannot fail to leave an impress on each Age;
What more can one do, than to leave behind her such a Page?
