I had found that engagements that Promised much were often pitiably short. The costumes I had to buy t were always expensive, and it invart- ably cost more to live on the road than in some city which I could call home tor a year or more.

Moreover, I had Watched the development of the film @s 4 means of entertainment and had Gerat faith in its future. Then, too and this is a little secret reason—I had long entertained a desire for a €areer in the photo-play field and was fairly sure that, once started, 1 could make my way. “Cardinal Woolsey,” an early Photo-play adaptation of “Richelieu,” ‘was the first picture in whieh F ap- Peared.

Gregory Copyright, 1918, by The Press Publishis ECENTLY I saw, for the first time, George Gray Barnard’s wonderful picce of sculpture called “The Hewer.” “The Hewer" takes us back to the grim period of prehistoric tinie known as the “Old Stone Age,” which may very fittingly be thought of as having been a Battle of Verdun stretch through the agony of thousands of years. Naked, save for the skin of the wild east that covers his shoulders, and armed only with his big stick, (he Gtone Age Man found himself pitted egainst the unpitying elements, tho wavage beasts of hill, plain and jun gie, and, worse yet, the wild passions of his own untamed soul i Under the frowning habitation a cleft in the hole in the ground, hi @foresaid big stick, surrounded great brutes that disputed the to his precarious footing upon earth, be watyr-like impu: Dumanity, the vens, his rocks or a weapon t by nt the eged day and night by the 4 of his animalized itlook for the genus man was @ or die.

[ was going along at low speed when suddenly there loomed up before me, out of the fog, something that caused my heart to stop beating. Right in front of me stood a large and tall factory chimney. 1 turned to the right to avoid it, bt 1 had hardly done that when I was close to another chimney, which was directly in my path. Once moro I turned, But before I had gone very far I was up against another chimaey 1 turned again; another chimney. I decided to seeif I could not get out ot the forest of chimneys by going in the other direction, but that, had the same result-—-more chimneys. For the next and longest ten minutos I ever experienced I described circles circles around chimneys, with the machine now on her nose, then on her tail, when not on her side. I finally reached what I thought an open place and then decided to Ko over the top of the chimneys One of my reasons for staying so close to the ground was that I wanted to keep in sight of the railroad t which had served as my guide. Tha weather was so thick that I could not see two fields ahead of me.

The only way to save the girl's life was to take a chance on my own neck. Before | knew It | had hurtled over tho little girl, missing her by’ d few inches with the under carriage of the machine. I was going at such a speed that had she been hit by any part of the machine she would have been killed. In getting over the little girl | lost my flying speed, and a bus without flying speed is like so much lead, The result was that I crashed into a hedge, smashed my prop to bits and then the machine landed on its nowe in the next field, ‘The motor was inaking about 2,200 revolutions a minute, and to make things worse ine tanks piled upon it and ignited.
