Miss Elizabeth Goodall, Coming to Heilig in "The Whirl of the World,"
Tells How to Succeed in Ludicrous Role.

MISS ELIZABETH GODDALL, WHO TELLS HOW TO SICCEED IX COMEDY
ROLE.
THE surest rule of success in a
comedy role, according to Miss
Elizabeth Goodall, a favorite
Winter Garden comedienne with "The
Whirl of the World," coming to the
Heilig Theater for five nights begin
ning next Tuesday, is to make peo
ple laugh with you, rather than at
you. On this point she has this to
say:
"How many people appreciate, the
seriousness of being funny? X believe
the average theater-goer seldom gives a
thought to the effort Involved in the
process of laugh-making, and yet the
funmaker must not only be well en
dowed with mirth-provoking qualities,
but also must bring to bear on his
or her work the keen, mental faculties
of imagination and invention.
"The first essential feature is the
n.oseinn ' nf a nlpnstnsT personality.
and, allied to this, that greatest bless
ing of humankind, a aensc m uumu, .
then, most important of all, healthy,
active mind, ever alert and Intent
upon the perfection and mastery of
"There is nothing quite so hopeful,
so far reaching, so lasting In bene
ficial effect, as a good, hearty, honest
laugh, and vet among the many and
subtle emotions that oi laughter is1
the most difficult to excite.
"When one considers the temper of
an audience made up. as it is, of rep
resentatives from all classes and con
ditions of life, subject to countless
physlctal Ills, varying moods, and the
depressing; worry and fatigue attend
ant upon almost every vocation in
the life of today, the task before the
funmaker assumes greater proportions
than one is accustomed to attribute to
It- ' ,
"Comedy methods there are In-.
numerable, as widely differentiated in
manner as are the various styles of
palette and brush, bo, waiving all dis
cussion of theory, let me come straight
to the most important point, the saf
est and surest rule of success, which
is. in my belief, to make people laugh
with rather than at you."
