While we played in the sand my host talked politely and entertain ingly—chiefly about the mechanics of stagecraft as applied to motion pictures, The sand pilo served him with material for demonstration and he showed me every variety of that movie stunt technically known as a break-awa I< way with my shoes full of sand a m: I exrried away t for g besides a hat-rack 2 40 TN the following fashion we arrived at the sand pile: I had gone to the studio at the earnest solicitation of Jackie's press agent, who insisted that I must see how cute Jackie looked in the uniform he is wearing in a picture called “Long Live the King.” The press agent intimated that when the flappers of Hicks Center get a flash of Jackie as the crown prince they'll forget the palpitations pro- voked when Rudy Valentino first displayed himrelf in a toreador’s sult Instead of finding the star Ina uniform I found him in khaki romp: ers, The press agent explained that Jackie wasn't working In any scenes that day—that they were stilt on the dying king sequence, He had fully expected the king to be dead by this time, but his majesty Was still in the throes of the death seene, The king had been steadily dying for a week back “And we're all afraid } I looked into the ornate dying king, lay panting “He's way over 80,” tinued exertion of dy “Don’t worry,” spoki And head mind full of ideas. ¢ conviction that at o movie actor uses his son od. 2 which Robert Bower, I actua’ ‘Look at bh h four-pc 1 i the whispered the press agent. “I'm afraid this con ng will actually kill the old boy.” » the king, whose ears were sharper than the press agent suspected. “This bed part ain't so hard. I usually have to play chair parts. I guess I ean stand it if I don’t have to stunt none, In the last picture I had to fall out of a chair, That's danger ous stuff.” And the dying king wagged his head yatt rils of his profession. JT was at this juncture that Jackie came up in his khaki @ rompers and with a roll of film der his arm. He had been assisting an assistant camera man. “Hello,” greeted Jackie, extending his hand, “glad to see you again.” “Jackie, could you tell Mr, Ryan something about your new picture?” The press agent spoke in the honeyed tones of a m | teacher on Friday afternoon when she calls the kids out to « heir pieces. “Come on back to my office,” said Jackie, significantly, “We'll talk there.” “Do you want me to go along?” inquired the press y “No,” replied Jackle with emphasis, and, taking mo by the hand, he led mo away thru a maze of flats. “One of my many trials,” confided my conductor when we were out of earshot. We paused under a doorway toiling with long-handled hoes. “Let's stop and watch them,” invited my host We sat down on the adjacent sand pile and gave our attention to the men, who were working up sand and cem with water in a mortar box. “That looks like a reservoir with a dam,” observed Jackie: We watched until the dam had disappeared and the water had been all mixed with the sand and cement. ous ACKIE tunneled into the sand pile. “Tt looks like an igioo now,” I remarked. “E-g-g-hyphen-g-l-u-e or I-g-l-o-0?” asked Jac “L-g-ldouble-o,” I replied. ‘I'm {gnor: “It's a viscid, gluey it holding and attaching them to the body of the parent, I blushed for my lack of knowledge. “I'll show you how to make a break-away,” said Jackie promptly, evidently desirous of covering up my confusion, While the king continued to rehearse his death scene on the adjacent stage, while 21 electricians fussed with lights, while actors in dazzling unt. forms sat around matching pennies, while the overhead went on at the rate of 200 honest dollars a minute, Jacklo showed mo how to make all the different kinds of break-aways. “How do you like Ruth Renick, your new leading lady?” I asked, think ing I might trick him into something that would give the fans an earful, Jackle continued to tunnel away with fe of boredom. “AN right.” he sald Iaconically, then added, “She wears those long, yellow curls. Do you think audiences demand them “I think the producers think so," I replied. “Evidently you prefer dark haired beauties. You have one all right in Rosemary Theby. She's quite a vamp in this picture, isn't she?” ‘She chews gum,” remarked Jackie, with an upward flash of his lambent brown eyes, “but not when she's actually on the set.” eee where a group of men in overalls were E were suddenly interrupted. A small crowd came bustling up, Mamma Coogan plumply in the lead. Pant-| ing behind her was the press agent. Mamma Coogan’s face wore an expression of ill-concealed anxiety, something like that of a mother hen who has hatched out a duckling. When she spied the sandy pair of us delving away her expression changed to one of relief. “Oh, there you are!” she exclaimed. “I was beginning to get a bit uneasy. I can't forget that time Jackie hid out at the Chaplin studio and we dragged the tank for him. Did you get material for an inter. view?” , “Mra. Coogan,” I repli given out by a movie star, “Hey!
