AM | BLIND? AM | DISFIGURED?

GAIREE, the beautiful, had not
waived to be urged from her
branch by wee shock from an cleo
trically charged wire.
She had taken her own part in the
scene very well indeed and of her
own initiative.
Mademoiselle Elsa was responsible
for the big cats freedom to do as
she pleased. MademoiseIle Elsa
been so sure of her pet that she had
neither doped nor chained her.
Gairee's pictures were magnifi-
cent. She had scolded and snarled
at me as | played with her cub and
then she had made one magnificent
curve of her body through the at
mosphere and had landed on ME with
out waiting for her cue-or for nv
dummy to be showed into position.
Dick was by my side as .aor as
Elsa. The cameras told a most ex-
citing story but it had no pace in
the play.

A laundry bag has as Attractive
an outline as my profile. My entire
head was encased in wrappings of
white medicated cotton.
What the first aid of so intelligent
persons could accomplish had been
done for me. The phone wire which
had been strung through the forest
brought a country doctof from the
nearest town.
He would stay with me until a
certain famous specialist summoned
by long distance should arrive.

WHY THE LEOPARD STUNT WAS
A WIFI


MY ACT with the leopards hap
A'~ pened to be scheduled for tor
rid morning.
1t was staged under nets. Camera
men - there were three of them-
directors, electricians, property
man with steel mirrors, were enclos-
ed with Mademoiselc Elsa and me.
Nobody was at all afraid of the
cats. The nets were used only be-
cause the cats were too valuable to
lose.
| went to work gleefully. | picked
| up the baby leopard, cuddled it and
cooed to it, carried it around in my
arms. The camera men stopped
cranking, and Mademoiselle Elsa
coaxed the big cat, Gairee, up the
| branch previously selected by De-
maison.
The big cat was to be shot several
times but there was only one moment
in which | was to be alone with the
| two animals.
For few feet, of film, l was to
pull the little leopard by its tail, APP

1t was an adorable part. Never
had I had SO much fun IA my III.
Whefr Gairee, the old cat, Kissed,
did not care. She often scolded
MademoiselIe that way.
All the movie people were collected
outside the nets, wherein worked
with the leopards. Somehow Dick
had found an excuse to get inside. He
was standing by the side of Bangs,
assistant director.
We took plenty of time for the act.
Giaree was too royal dame to be
hurried. | glanced at her admiringly

Mademoiselle Elsa induced her to
crouch just where Demaison wanted
her.

half of one morning deciding to

LETTERS FROM GlNETTE-
TO DICK

with the little leopard. 1t purred
when l stroked it, and followed me
around instead of Elsa.
/ decided to become trainer of
cats, if an accident ever put me out
of the movies. And I'd hire Dick.
He had stuck so close to the net dur
ing rehearsals that he must have
qualified as an assistant trainer.
The mail came to camp just as
| Mademoiselle Elsa and | finished re-
hearsing the leopard, There was a
pile of it, dumped in heap on a
table beneath a huge maple where
Cissy's photograph ground out any
body's favorite tune.
With hammocks and swings,
benches and pillows and the help of
the carpenter, our art director had
achieved sylvan retreat fit for a
stage setting.

run over the mail Thehe were sew
eral letters for me, the most precious
being from Motherdear. And in the
pile on the table were two scented
envelopes in Ginette's distinctive
! handwriting. Both were addressed to
Dick Barnesl
The oriental odor which clung to
them made me ILL.,
Ginette-writing to Dick?
What right had Dick to criticize
my conduct when he thought SO well
of Ginette--and she of him-that she
was privileged to send him two let
ters in one day?
! BY what right did Dick watch my
tent at night, and keep away snakes,
big and little? How did he dare
watch my rehearsals with Laski-as
if he expected he would have to
rescue me from the cat as he had
| dragged me from the fire set in the
/ studio?
What right had Dick Barnes to be
