One of the prettiest legends con- cerning trees is that held by a tribe inhabitating the Gulf Coast of Aus- tralia who think that once a great pine tree reached from heaven to earth and by its means their ancestors used to climb up and down between the two regions. To complete the story, it is | related that a hawk which had discov- ered the secret of fire-making, while disputing with another hawk, set fire to the earth, thus destroying the tree. ‘The people who had climbed up to the sky had of necessity to remain there. Crystals were implanted in their bodies, and the flashing of these by night causes the light of the stars. k. 5 AM. S 10 P.M. s IS o 2900 14th St. N.W.

He played the next season with Nat Goodwin in “Why | Marry?” a Pulitzer prize play, and | then appeared in “Three Faces East” and “The Meanest Man in the World.” | It was in the latter show that he got his first chance to star. His work in & minor part in the New York produc- tion was so impressive that he was given the lead in one of the road com- panies. Cullen's next engagements were in' “The Bat,” “The Cat and the Canary” and then with Jane Cowl in the Span- | ish play, “Malvalova,” that opened the Actors’ Theater, in New York. He spent the next five years in stock. He had his own company in London, Ontario, and played the leading roles in Cincinnati, Providence, Boston, Hali- fax, Newark and Buffalo companies. | During a stock engagement with Henry Duffy and Mary Boland in Hollywood he made two pictures for Fox Films. His last stock engagement was with Enwm CULLEN, one of Colum- | + Cullen’s only previous e: , WEDNESDAY, Mrs. Piske and he also took & turn in vaudeville with Wellington Cross. xperience in radio before joining the staff of an- nouncers at Columbia was an occasion- al part in dnn;n broadcasts.
