Land devoid of vegetation and land bearing not a few, but thousands of acres of the greatest living things on earth, the giant redwoods and sequoias, are less than a hundred miles apart. “A ‘river’ in Southern California is a typical Western dry ereek. Rivers and lakes and swamps abound in the Northern part.

The name of Keokuk may be a vaudeville joke in Des Moines, as is that of Kokomo, Watts and so on in other localities. But it’s home, sweet home to Conrad Nagel, famous screen actor. He’s very proud of his home town and never fails to mention it in giving biographical material to interviewers. It is said that he had a fight with a vaudeville entertainer in a company in which he was working because the man, his partner in an act, insisted on first introducing him as the man from Keokuk, and then humorously belitiling the live little Towa town! Not many persons know that Nagel was a Des Moines stock company actor and then a vaudevillian before becoming a film actor; that he played on Broadway opposite Alice Brady in “Forever After,” and was a seaman during the World War. Nagel’s principal fame in pictures came in the talkies, in which he was a pioneer.
