Would You Euer Think
That Conrad Nagel Hated

ND you ever sit in moving picture

CLYDE COOK SPENT
ONE NIGHT IN AN
ALARMING PLACE

TLYDE COOK was an actor in
~ Australia, his native land, before
coming to this country, and loves to
reminisce about the misadventurcs that
befell him during his first season as a
player In some of the remote districts
Of Australia.
Cook relates how Mt one time. owing
to the eXigenCics of travel, getting from
one night stand to another. it was
necessary for the troupe to travel sew
cral nights in succession, with but
little sleep for the players.
At last, arriving in n little hamlet
on the borders of the Australian Bush
he decided to seek quiet rOoming house
where he could sleep all day undis.
turbcd, rather than take-a chance in n
bustlng, noisy hotel, with the chances
of being awakened every few minutes.
He finally found such n place above
a store on seemingly quiet street, and
prepared for the long deferred slumbcr
he so badly needed.
lie HAD, however, scarcely closed
l. his eyes in slumbrr before he was
awakened by fusillddc of shots that
brought him to his senses in n hurry.
