Bill Hart and Winifred Wcstevcr Surprised Everybody
WEREN'T yen mirprlwil te rend in Tliin-Ntny'n pnpers Hint Hill Unit and
Winifred WcMever had been mnrrlcd out in Hollywood? There hndn't been '
rcn n lilnt of their rennnec; in fect, both of them ("coined te be confirmed in
their lives of virtue, liberty nnd Independence ns ngnlnst "e plurlbim iinuiu,"
and it must lmve been n very sudden nffnir, beenmc Miss AVcstever hasn't been
Wrst very Ions. t
YeuJIl remember, of course, the perMstent rumors thnt Hnrt wns coins te
marry .Innc- Nevnk. his beautiful blonde lendlns lndy in mnny pictures, lleth
of them denied It ngnin nnd ngnln, but nobody believed them nnd the grnernl
opinion wnn thnt they would be married nfter Miss Nevnk'a decree of divorce
fttcnme linnl.
Miss AVestever herself wasn't considered n likely candidate for ernnse bios '
neins. Just before she left Helznli-k, in New Yerk, te co West, she was quoted
as saying. "If I ever fall In love with a leading man, it will be without illusions.
I have seen tee much of love ns it is today te expect very much from it. 1 enn't ,
ever be disappointed."
And about the same time some one out AVest. interviewing Hart, quoted him
ns saying, "AVhile I nm n bachelor in one sense, still, in nnether sense I am
married married te mj nrt : se I cannot consider marriage until mv art divorces
me."
Six months Inter when lie made his visit te N'ew Yerk, he seemed te have
changed his mind, for he told nn interviewer then, "I like the society of ladies
and I love children, and you can bet your life that I nm going te get married
I don't mean te say thnt I have a girl picked out or anything like thnt. Hut I
hnve alwnjs had the idea in my mind. I have had my mother and my iters t
take care of nil these jenrs. It was n privilege nnd n joy, but. en nn actor -salary,
it wns pretty hard sledding sometimes. New I am en easy street nnd I
Ctrtninly will get married some of these fine ilnys."
HlC' iKi the id era some time age nml began wrtliny boy' nnn.

HART'S full name is William Shakespeare Hart. That sounds highbrow
for n AA'estern cowpuncher, but you must remember thnt lie has net nlwnjs
been a AYcsterncr.
He wns born in Newburgh. X. A'. ' AA'hen he was only sIt months old hi
parents moved out te the Daketns nnd Hill at once began absorbing thnt West- ,
em ntmnsphere which has since made his fortune for him. Seme -one once said ,
te him, "I supposed you fairly lived in the saddle?" Ne," said Hill. "I didn't ,
have a saddle te live In. Hut I lived en a horse."
In his own introduction te his story. "Injun nnd AA'hite) ." new running in
Mevie AA'eekly. Hnrt writes:
"The first fifteen jears of my life were spent in the Daketn territory, 'lhe ,
great AA'est mothered me during the shaping of my boyhood ambitions and ideals.
Therefore. I knew by personal experience the actual life of our frontier days. , ,
"AVhile boys of my age in the East were plnying baseball, football aim me
arieiiH school games. 1 wns forced through environment te piny the mere
primitive gnmes of the Indian. I lied en the frontier. AVhitc settlers were

' -"AA'hen AVestern plns were first tried out en the American stage I wn an

Hart's bride is a f'nlifernln girl, of Scandinavian ancestry. She hud two
years' experience with Ciriffith in his Fine Arts days, playing opposite De Wolf

"Yes." answered Chip nnd Chipper

"Then gather close," said Sleepy
AVoedchuck drowsily. "Gather very
close, and I will show you where 1 go
when I go t sleep."
Jack nnd Janet were n bit fearful
about going te Sleepy AVoedchuck. He
might hne some trick in his drowsy
heud. Hut still they were curious te
learn where he went when asleep, and
with Chip and Chipper Chipmuck they
crept toward him. Sleepy AVoedchuck
closed his eyes nnd seemed already deep
in slumber. Cleser and closer they
ventured.
Then suddenly Sleepy AVoedchuck
shot out his four legs. One grnsped

though she shrank back at first with
drugging feet nnd though then, suddenly
galvanized, she fought 'wildly. But two
big hands locked tight en her arms and
