Ferne lost her job in England for supposedly sympathizing with the Germans.
"Little By Little, Bit By Bit" and "Drip, Drip, Drip."
In Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Milwaukee, Hoboken, and other German ports where the sentiment is what they accused Ferne of over in England, she out to draw on the advance notices. But Ferne need have no horrors of war. She's working at Hammerstein's, in vaudeville, as a "single" with a fair voice that doesn't sound German at all, but what war is to Europe, vaudeville is to beginners. So it looks as though you were fated, Ferne. Trouble just naturally seems to hang around you.
