Hartley says: Director Paul Powell has been play ing the gentle game of "Follow My Leader" with Douglas Fairbanks, and would still be doing it perhaps, but a tree got in his way. It all came about from a bet made by Paul that he could emulate any of the agile comedian's trick. All went well until Doug jum ped from a hill to a tree and swung js n disease to th? ground via a brunch. Paul was game and started the trick, but he never got futher than the tree.
