Visions of Dicks crushed body

In a minute a harsh voice read

Immediately" l answered, and
could hear the man grumble, but,
for all that l had to share my first
1ote letter with him, l was going
to be able to keep with me
through the day the blessed bit
of paper that told me that Dick

up Dicks love than the senti-

Ethel Davis, Hollywood, Cal,
is just recovering from the effects
of a dangerous fall in one OF
those unprepared and unpremedi-
tated accidents which occasional
ly happen in the production of a
moving picture.
A short while ago when Edwin
August was making Into the
Lions Pit" rather hazardous
undertaking for several reasons,
Miss Davis took the part of the
hero's sweetheart sacrificed to the
lions.
Her stunt was to be thrown
into the pit where the lions roar
ed. A sure-enough pit was dug,
good and deep, and the plan was
to catch Miss Davis in a net just
below the surface. This was to be
held by four strong men.
Then August gave the order to
grind out the scene. The heroine
was flung into the bottom; one of
the four corners of the net
slipped.
