130 VARIETY GREETINGS ANNIE NT THE GIRL WHO WRITES HER OWN SONGS AND SONGS FOR MANY OTHERS; Writer of "Will Someone Name My Nationality" for Nellie Nichols Greeley Square, New York, Now (Dec. 21-24) Just say "Fair Dinkum" to all my Australian friends, and "Aloha" to all my friends in Honolulu. I'll see all my American friends this season as I am booked solid all over the U. S., but say, I'm getting fat, wait until I see you. Do you remember when Sydney, Australia, said: "Annie Kent has too much good material; the American comedienne put orer an excellent ■election of ditties of her own composition, and all went with a swing. "Fair Dinkum" is a rousing number, full of sentiment, and should be a big winner for any publisher. "Goodbye Australia" is another wonderful number and it certainly got the audience." And "The clever and versatile American comedienne at the Tivoli has a reputation in her own country of being a song and lyric writer of individuality. If her present repertoire is an indi- cation of what she is capable of, it is up to Mr. Hugh D. Mcintosh to give her a chance to introduce some of his forthcoming Revues with some catchy melodies." And Th« Melbourne "Ago" said: "Annie Kent proved herself to be far above the average of comediennes; she was reminiscent of Maggie Mocrc in her younger days. Her act teemed with humor and she was greeted with repeated calls. It is properly surrounded and was clever in the extreme." And a whole book full more.
