SHOW MiSKIINS ABOUT
CITY OFlilX MILLION
The following story appeared in
the “Inns and Outs” column of
the New York World-Telegram, in
their issue of May 27:
One of the stories that did not
get into the papers was the one
about the little 8-year-old Seward,
Alaska, girl who was lost on
Broadway . . . Her name was Iris
i Colwell, and she would have made
; great copy and pictures . . . She
| had gone down town from the Ho
tel Knickerbocker with her mother
on a shopping expedition . . . On^
one of the upper floors of Macy’s
where her mother was looking at
dresses, Iris decided to do some ex
ploring of her own . . .
When she looked for her mother
again she just couldn’t find her
... Mrs. Colwell went pretty i
white when she realized that Iris
was gone . . . There didn’t seem
to be much hope of ever finding
her again in a city of 6,000,000
people . . . The store detectives
got busy and scoured floor after
after floor for the little curly
headed visitor from Alaska, and
finally they had to tell the mother
that they hadn’t any luck, but that
they’d try all over again ... So
Mrs. Colwell decided to call the
police . . . But first she called
the hotel . . . May McGovern,
chief telephone operator at the
Knickerbocker responded . . . “My
little girl,” sobbed the mother . . .
“Is this Mrs. Colwell?” questioned
Miss McGovern . . . “Yes, my little
girl is lost!” . . . “Why, no she
isn’t,” replied the phone girl, “she's
sitting right out here in one of the
big lobby chairs! Want to talk to
her? . . . Later, when the child
was asked to explain how she
managed to find her way back to
the hotel, she said:—
“I just asked this one and that
one where the Hotel Knickerbocker j
was until I found it!”
