"Do you remember that first apartment we had, Don?" he went on, with a twinkle in his eyes. I might add that they're the bluest eyes I've seen since Gary Cooper's. "It was a little bit of a place, but the best we could afford. You see, I'd been put in stock at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer at a very small salary, and Don hadn't been working very steadily, so we couldn't afford to spend much money for rent "But we decided that the one thing we must have was a servant. So we hired a Chinese cook. And was he awful ! He could hardly understand English, in the first place, which made it a little difficult. He'd ask if we wanted rice for breakfast, and in spite of all the negative answers — ■ verbal and with much shaking of the head — we'd get rice ! And neither one of us knew quite what 'to do about it. You see, we'd never had a servant of our own before. We finally had to let him go, though, when we found soap powder in the mashed potatoes !" They both laughed at this. There seemed to be a nice feeling between the two boys. You could tell that Don was very proud of Robert's success. "I guess I've always had a lot of fun," Robert began, reminiscently. "I suppose I had, it pretty easy, when I was a kid. I don't know whether I was spoiled or not; I don't. think people ever do. But I did have things pretty much my own way. "You see, I was an only child. My dad was a doctor and he had a pretty good practice in Beatrice, Nebraska, the little town where I went to school. We had a little cabin about five miles out of town where we could go fishing in the summer, and I always had a couple of horses to ride. And automobiles. I loved cars. Had four of them before I graduated from high school. That's quite a lot for a kid, isn't it?" He looked at me a trifle anxiously. "Dad and mother always wanted me to have a good time," he went on. "I came and went pretty much as I pleased. I had plenty of spending money and could do just about as I wanted with it as long as I didn't do certain things. They were pretty strict about how I should behave myself, in spite of all the freedom I had." "Did you always want to be an actor ?" I asked. "No. I'd never really thought about it. As a matter of fact, I didn't know what I wanted to be. One time I thought I'd like to be a musician. I've always loved music. So I took piano lessons, then saxophone, then banjo. None of them took. Finally, I hit upon the cello. I stuck to that. Used to play in the theatre sometimes, just for the fun of it. That was really what brought me West, you know. "I'd been studying cello under Professor Herbert E. Gray, back at Doane University, in Nebraska. He was coming out to Pomona College to teach. So I came along, too. He never wanted me to be an actor. Disapproved highly of my dramatic work in school. " 'You'll never make any money, acting,' he told me one day, just after I'd been made President of the Dramatic Society. 'But if you stick to the cello, you might become a good musician some day and can make as much as $85 a week ! You'd better forget this acting business. It'll never get you any place.' "But he thought it was swell when I finally landed in pictures. Said he knew I had it in me all the time," Robert laughed. He had nice, even white teeth. His eyes smiled when he laughed, too, and seemed a little bluer. "I've always been a picture fan," he ad
