I'hoto 4-20 number of beautiful studies of the country round about Phoenix and Tempe. Back on Broadway they spoke of Hobart Bosworth with hushed voices and dolorously wagging heads. What matter if he wrote that he was feeling great, and would soon be back among them. One day Bosworth went to see one of the specialists in that sort of thing in Phoenix. "Wish you'd see if you can find anything wrong with me," he said. The specialist looked him over, inside and out, several times, and subjected him to all the tests there are. In the end he had to admit that, somehow or other, Bosworth had cheated the germs, ejected them from his physiology, and was, in the parlance of a later day, "top-hole." But the wary man of medicine warned him against the east, the cruel east with its wet cold winters, popularly supposed to be fraught with pneumonia germs and other bacilli of destruction. Bosworth wasn't scared, but he thought Southern California might be worth looking over a bit, and a new stock company was being opened there by Fred Belasco, brother of David, and so to Los Angeles went the recovered and rejuvenated Bosworth. At first the theatrical colony wouldn't believe it, but the fact soon was established and so was Bosworth, as director of a company that made a national reputation for the excellence of its productions. From this company came such notables as Lewis Stone, Fay Bainter, Lillian Albertson, Charles Ruggles, and the scenic artist was Robert Brunton, founder some years later of the Brunton studios. Florence Reed played there, and Mrs. Fiske gave a special performance of Ibsen's "Rosmersholm," with Bosworth as Rosmer. Then came the pictures to the southland. The thing that Bosworth expresses most intensely is power with geniality — a sort of rollicking mastodon. Although he is six feet tall and weighs more than two hundred pounds, there is nothing heavy or bulky about his appearance, and the mildness of his blue eyes, whose assertion of kindliness is corroborated by his light wavy hair — touched a bit now with distinguished grey — tells of a joviality of spirit concerning which his friends do not need to be told. And as I watched his powerful arms thrashing out in every direction in the big fight scene in "Behind the Door" I could not help wondering what he would be like if he started fighting in real earnest. Probably he would hate like the very dickens to get into it in the first place, but once in — oh boy ! — I for one would want to be outside looking in. He had just finished "Behind the Door" when the Ince organization handed him another rough bit of work, "Below the Surface," in which he is called upon to play the part of a master diver. Then came a moment of hesitation, and finally the death wallop for the last shadow of fear that his battle with tuberculosis had left implanted in his mind. This fear was something of a nightmare that he would some day die of strangulation. His apprehension was with him right to the last minute, and as the glass plate was being fastened over his face on the diving helmet he involuntarily gave a gasp, fearing that the supply of air coming in through the air line would be inadequate and that he would be unable to breathe under the conditions. However, once the adjustment was made and the air pump started, he experienced no difficulty in breathing at all, and he had won the final victory.
