In one scene Bobby is torn from his mother, by the officers of the law and In childish terror ho clings to .her skirts and sobs. The tears flow down his 'checks and If he had been made-up at the time the production was filmed his cheeks would have, registered as through streaked with mud. He grows so absorbed Jn his part that he rushes to the door after his mother hus- gone and attempts to, pull jt open, resting his little knee up against the knob and pulling with all his force. When the scene was filmed in the studios Bobby was told what to do in his part the lights were turned on, the cameraman began to turn his crank and Bobby stepped into the picture. Before long everybody in the cast was sobbing with . ' him. When ' the picture hud been ta'kcn tho players could be seen all around, brushing real salt tears from their eyes and so. worked up was Anita Stewart, who was playing the part of the mother, that she "was unable to remain any longer that after noon. ' .''':' Although Bobby ha.s doho won derful things for the sake of the picturos, this is, by far, way ahead of them all and stands apart from the general routine acting which has become as second" nature to tho little fellow.'

Every effort was made by Director Willed Lucas and his corps of assistants to move the machines, but without avail. The director had a number of Important scenes to make for "The ,Red.

By the- time the necessary aid had arrived from Hesperia the fast-working producer had made twenty-eight scenes.', And then iu stead of moving on to "their original destination, the company made use of the Immediato vicin ity which furnished a wonderfully plcluros(iie background for tho scenes, two donen more of which wero taken before Director Lucas called It a day and the players returned to Ihelr hoadqdurtera at Hesperia.
