Eight green parrots, tricks.
Talk routine by Tuttle.
A woman handling seven or eight of the common or garden variety of green parrots, puts the birds through a routine that could be enhanced if the woman were surer of herself and worked a little faster with her talk. Madam Tuttle's birds are really cleverly trained but they seem to fight shy of doing their tricks on a first request, and it is in these moments leading to the final showing of the trick that showmanship is lacking. When the woman is more at case, the act will do to fill in the closing spot on the smaller big time bills.
