This is the girl who plays my character leads." Then the white girl, who was to be his leading woman, would not feel that she was the only woman in the company who could do good work for Luck.
Annie-Many-Ponies had worked in pictures since she was fifteen and did only "atmosphere stuff" in the Indian camps of Luck's arranging.

She was wise in the ways of picture jealousies.

Already she was jealous of this slim woman with the dark hair and eyes and the slow smile that always caught one's attention and held it.
