LIGHT LITERATURE.
The Adventures of Sadie Sopp. Episode VII, Synopsis What Has Gone Before Sadie leaves Wood Bush for Hollywood where she has an attack of cold feet just before interviewing a film director Now Read On. Aw shake yourself out of it and fergit about Wood Bush for a while can’t you groaned Chick Bullock. He opened the door quickly and they entered the room to be confronted by a Face. This is Light Literature we must not forget dear reader. And there is no place in light literature for a face such as Sadie Sopp saw. It is naturally difficult to describe this Face but it resembled more than anything else the futuristic grouping of a piece of granite a chopping block and a beaver with a section of George Bancroft thrown in. There was a gradually increasing rumbling and from the cavernous depths the creaking of the machinery gave forth Wellwodisitt. This is the phrail I told you about said Chick. I guess she isn’t much of a looker but she hasn’t a bad leg and we can knock her into shape. She isn’t such a bad looker even if she is dumb said the Face which Sadie decided belonged to the man whose intimates called him Caponey. Well they led Sadie through a few more passages till they came to a large room where a number of cameramen and extras chewing gum were waiting like Mr Micawber for what might turn up. Well Sadie was asked to represent terror first. This was an inspiration of Chick’s who saw the anguished appearance she presented and, of course, it was not difficult for her to give a very natural representation of terror.
