You can’t stump film folks.
They’d hired a Red Indian tribe to
give the right background to a Wild
West picture, and wanted a pow
wow scene, with the braves speaking
their native tongue.
But none of them knew it. They
could only speak English. “All
right,” said the film man, “speak
English,” Then, after the pow
wow, they reversed the sound track,
—and now it sounds like real Red
skin talk.
Anyway, picture-goers will take it
as “real.”
“But, my good man,” said Mrs.
Smith, dubiously, to the tramp at
her door, “your story has such a
hollow ring.”
“Yes, ma’hm. That’s the natural
result of speaking with an empty
stomach.”
