FoRcIBLE CUE

When Tom Keene took long tours

is still In favor, he used to keep his
company down In numbers on account

fares. writes Drury Underwood. There
were various ways Of doing this. such
as by doubling and by putting q tin
suit on the electrician now and then.
One play had long cast, however,
and the advance agent was instructed
to pick up some local man for one OF
the bits. Keene arrived In one
night stand and made his way to the
theater to meet the recruit for the
play In question. He introduced him
self to the manager and explained the
situation. The local dignitory said:4

him" Jones appeared presently. He
yawned and stretched his arms con-
tinually. putting two or three gaps In
every sentence. The part consisted OF
two lines, but on them hung the vital
situation Of the play. Keene seized
Jones up for his wardrobe and then
asked him II he was ready to rehearse
the part. NO" said Jones. II played
the part with Mccullough twice" That
seemed promising and Keene was sat
isfied. The particular scene Of the
performance came and Keehe, looking

speech for his entrance, but Jones did
not bulge. He repeated It without
