Every one of them Ramon No varro, Robert Montgomery, James Cagney, Otto Krugor, Spencer Tracy, Lowell Sherman has contributed something to her movie training, says Madge, cataloguing their respective "courses" aa follows: Traoy Naturalness. ("He has no theatrical tricks. ) Novarro Graclousness. ("He taught me that with charm and grace any scene, no matter how difficult or Im probable, can be made effective.") . Montgomery Lightness. ("The light touch Is natural with him. He employs It with the greatest possi ble suavity and grace.") Kruger Tho charm of voice. ("To hear his voice Is to hear tho voice of all emotion.") CafjneyPantomime. "He has de veloped pantomime to such an extent that words seem superfluous. His hands have expressed the thought be fore his mouth utters It.") Sherman Timing. ("I've noticed that he somehow times comedy lines so that audience laughter will never break In on the dialog.") Adding To Waste Jack Onkio onco started In a "western" movie Inspired by a pro ducer's hatred for waste. It was In pre-talkie times, and Oakie had not yet caught on In Hollywood. A western street set on the old Pathe lot was to be torn down, and the producer sighed at the loss. If it must go, he figured, why not let It go gloriously in a picture? So Jack donned a sombrero and chaps, and blundered through five or six reels concocted for no other purpose than the climax destruc tion of the set by fire.

Chapter 45 CAPTURE t?On Hours, It seemed, she lay A wide-eyed staring at tlio reflec tions from the lire that shifted over the unevoi. area of the cave's roof. Finally she drifted Into slumber. . . . She dreamed restlessly. A kal eidoscope ot dream substance shut tled across her mind. Bits of her Hollywood life, fragments ot her Jungle experience pulsed In weird oscillation. Frank's face was there, and Lang ton's, nnrj that ot poor Horatio Greene's mixed up oddly, with that of the Mexican boy Juan. She made again the trip up the side of the pyramid to the high- priests nouse. sue saw again the panoply ot the ritual before the stone of sacrifice. SI Bmelled the resinous odor of copal Incense, and heard tho flat, dismal thudding ot a hidden drum. The face of (lie high priest came closer. Evon in the dream the chill, Inexorable fanaticism ot his eyes seemed to shrink the membranes of her soul. The arms of the guards and the lesser priests seized her. She felt her throat bursting In a scream. She struggled desperately. , 1 Her eyes suapped wide. Curious shadows loomed between her aud the rosy Are reflections on the cav ern roofi A rmell of unwashed In dian bodies tingled bor nostrils. She struggled ;o arise but she could not Slid was held tightly to her cou She heard a voice - shouting, charged with pain and despair. ' "Janice! . , . Jalilcel" Suddenly the cavern was filled with light. Torches flared. The girl saw native faces about her. The crossed rows of cartridges upon their breasts, she realized that she was bound to her bed. As he wldercd her bewildered eyes at the scene, the figure of I-angtoii wni brought forward be tween 1 wo brawny natives.. He was bound hand and foot but his eyes flashed ami his shoulders writhed In a liaroj xsni of riillle effort. "They've got iu, Janice!" ho bioatheil hoarsely. "That devil cnllcd them . , . know. Helpless, yot he sent tlieiri his summons . , waiting 'til Frank was gone or the rains came!" She moistened her lips and stared bewildered from brown face to brown face. It was loo strange, too direful for her to accept at once. She saw tlio ahkin's eyes observing her beyond the circle ot faces. His expression was triumphant Indom itable. . As she caught his glauco he mut tered something to one of his at tendants. Two men stepped boslde him; they lifted him and tarried him forwaid. He addressed the girl lu rupld Snanlsh. She shook ber head and turned appeallngly to Langton. Hut the tall blond white man's eyes showed his Incomprehension. Turning to his Indian attondnnt, the hlghprlest spoke In the gutteral dialect of the sublevados, A space was cleared about the In dniu. Ho pointed to Janice and shook his head; he repealed the ges ture toward l.angton again shaking his head. Ho pulled a lock of black hair away from his forehead and nodded. "Ho means Frank," muttered Langton. "He's trying to tell us something about Frank." Whereupon the man took an un mistakalile posture. He allowed bis body to sag. Slowly he kneeled to the tloor nnd stretched himself out upon It. Ho closed his eyes and let his mouth open. There could be no doubt ot the hornblo Import ot his position. It toid Jnnlce as plainly as If Frank wore lying before her that they warned her to know that Frank was dead! She eried out distractedly, "No, no! That Isn't what he means! Billy. It em't be. How do they know 7 How could they know!" l.anRion, misery in bis haggard eyes, glanced sidelong at the high priest. With the fascination ot a bird for a anako's eyes, she fol lowed Langton's glance.

JANICE! stared dry-eyed over a succession ot flat roof tops to ward the great central pyramid; From the platform surmounting the vast edifice puils ot Incense smoke gathered and disappeared as vagrant wind-eddies blew about the lofty corners ot the bead-priest's house. Soon, she realized, she and Billy Langton vouid proceed slowly up tbose dizzying steps. Then stretcbed for agonizing moments on the sacri ficial stone, flinching to the Inexor able plunge of the knife, they would die, and their bodies be burled Into the depths ot the rain -choked cenote. . A snarling and coughing sounded from below the rim ot the parapet that bounded the root top that beld their prisoner. She shuddered but stepped to the low wall and looked downward. , .... She knew what she would see but the seven Jungle cats that roamed In tbe surrounding enclosure fas cinated her. . . They were Jaguars. Lithe muscles bunched and writhed beneath their blaok-dappled tawny skins. They were restless seemingly forever In motion. At night, as she lay In ber room below, she could bear them above tho drumming rain as they whined and quarreled, . or fought over the scanty scraps of food thrown them by the guards. They were given Just enough to keep them strong, and hungry and ferocious. She resled ber elbows on the stone and observed ibem. As If by some uncanny Instinct they lift ed their heads and looked at ber. . Their yellow eyes- gleamed, a whine of crazing sounded in their throats: almost as one beast they flattened to the ground only the tips of their tails moved. Au Involuntary trembling rippled acrosB her shoulders. Without locks or bars she was constrained to ber prison. Remindful or a water moat about a castle In the days of chival ry, this was a moat of living, bun gry Jaguars. ; It was nearly a weok since she had been placed hero. The soldiers of tho ahltlii had hauled then- by means of ropes up the concave walls of the valiey cenote and hod carried them back to the city. . Since then It had tallied Incess antly. She knew the women de-. tailed as her servants bad told ber In pantomime that when the rain ceased she and Billy were to be taken to the' pyramid top. There would be no escape this time. Even could they get so tar as the underground river, that avenue was closed by the rains that bad charged the caverns with water. Tbe Jungle, soaked trom tiie eonlinuous down fall, was impassable; Hod Frank got to tbe sea through the caverns and her taltb had rallied from the higli-prlest's Intima tion that he hadn't it would take weeks for him to travel through the morass that lay between the coast and this bidden city. rjOPELESSLY she walked about 11 tbe roof. Today the fain had ceased. The sky was clear except tor Occasional . sullen groups , of clouds that hung In patches across the blue. She was graletui tof this day ia the open, but prayed, nevertheless for fain. She and Billy would not be molested while it rained. . .

Sometimes Amy would perform very nicely. At others sno woum either refuse to play nt all or only after much persuasion. The advisability ot asking n child to play for people Is In any bvent questionable. If It helps the child to gain confidence .it has a certain value, but only to the child. For the listeners, unless they are Interested members of the family, It Is gener ally a very doubtful pleasure, and often causes them embarrassment when they are asked afterwards to express their appreciation. Certainly a child should never be urged to play If It shows the' least unwillingness. Generally tbe refusal Is merely a bid for attention, and tho more persuasion that is used,, the greater tho child's success In taking tho center of the stage and Increas ing his feeling of self-importance. The child who recites or plays or dances before an audience should understand that the whole object of his performance is, not to display virtuosity, but to give pleasure. His attention should be directed outwards towards his listeners, and not in wards towards himself. It. is always a pleasure to see a child rise with ease and graclous ness, give his little contribution to ward the entertainment, and then retire to his plnce again, with no ef fort to do either more or less than is asked of him. No mntter how Indifferent his per formance, his manner disarms criti cism and leaves a -pleasant impres sion. But the child who comes for ward with the manner of one con ferring a favor, or the arch expres sion of self-consciousness, or who re fuses to do anything without urging, . insists on playing encores when none was demanded, is always a par lor nuisance.
