They did not think much of her work in a tryout as an actress, but when she told them of the number of little mouths she had to feed the manager took pity on her and gave her a job as janitress. Her ambitions were far above the job, and when she discovered an old discarded newspaper, telling of a big floral parade in which the L-KO Company was to participate, she decided that with the assistance of the head janitor they ought to be able to walk away with the parts to be portrayed. After some persuasion, the janitor decides to join her in the impersonation. They arrive at the scene of the parade after donning the apparel of the other actors and actresses. But there was something doing when the actors and actresses who had been chosen by the L-KO to do the work discover that someone had stolen their wardrobes.
