Mi THE first thing Celia Brandon A noticed about him was the way he sat. As if, she thought, studying the man at the corner table across the top of her menu, he had been propped up in his chair and was likely, at any minute, to go sliding off on the floor. "Does he come in often?" "Yes-a, Miss," said her waiter. "Every night this-a week, he come. But he does not eat. He just-a sits nd sits." Celia examined her find more closely. Saw that his skin was stretched altogether too tightly cross his high cheekbones for him to be in good health. And his hair was greying much too rapidly, and his clothes were much too shabby for Garibaldi's, which was on 52nd Just around the corner cor-ner from the theatre thea-tre district a place where only the famous fa-mous could afford to be shabby and where the really shabby rarely came. "Perhaps," she said, "he hasn't the price of a meal." "Then why does he come?" The waiter's attitude, Celia felt, was a coldly commercial one. The way most folks with something to sell looked upon those who had no money to buy. And determined to put the waiter in his place, she said, "I thought his face was familiar. Yes, of course! It's Freddy Malone. ... Tell him," she said, "that I'd like him to Join me." "Yes-a, Miss!" For a moment after the waiter had delivered this invitation uncertainty uncer-tainty marked the man's lean features. fea-tures. There was a frightened expression ex-pression In his deep-set eyes as they met hers. But when Celia countered With Just the right degree of warmth In her own the degree one would extend to a man friend not seen In many years yet warmly rememberedhe re-memberedhe rose and came toward to-ward her table. He walked unsteadily and she wondered if he might be Intoxicated. Intoxi-cated. If that explained his propped-up propped-up appearance of a moment ago. Then he was alongside, bowing Just a little from the waist, and she was saying,' "It's so good to see you again, Fred." "Yes, isn't It," he said. "Thanks for asking me over." His tones made her feel that he was hungry. It was as if every word he spoke was scraped from the walls of his stomach, left some mark. And now that he was closer she could not mistake the suffering which lined his face. It was the kindV that comes to those who find themselves them-selves alone in the world's largest city when dark closes in. More than food, she felt certain, was needed here. He needed good cheer. Someone to talk with. To make the Joke with. To cry with.

"How about a coke?"' she said. "A pepper-upper, as they say." He turned to the waiter, chuckling miraculously. "A pepper-upper," he ordered, "for the lady." Then, when the waiter had gone off and leaning closer across the white tablecloth, "Look! It's nice of you. Having me like this, I mean. But I can't accept-" "Forget it," Celia said, trying her utmost to spare him. "I don't know about you, but I'm hungry. Let's concentrate on dinner." "Yes, of course. The dinner." "How about some sea food?" "Not for me." He made a wry face. "I've just come from there. Maybe you took riotlce of my rolL" . "I wondered what It was." TT'S THE genuine article," he as- sured her. "A Clyde-Mallory Line freighter Just brought me back from the Far East. . . . You see," he hurried on as if he had just so much time In which to tell it, "I struck it tough In Singapore. Went out there to work for a big oil company. com-pany. It wasn't so big, because it folded a few weeks after I arrived. I was on the beach three months, broke to the wide, before I got this chance to work my way home" "Forget that now," Celia said, Judging from his tones that every word must be an effort for him. "This Spaghetti Italienne , sounds mighty good to me." "But I can't forget," he insisted. "And I think you should hear me out. Have you ever," he demanded, while Celia could find not a word with which to check him, "known what it is to be hungry, to starve?

"I can well Imagine," Celia interrupted, inter-rupted, more firmly this time. "I've heard New York is no different than Singapore if it comes to that. But let's get on with ordering now, eh?" "Yes, of course. Ordering." He sounded the least bit let down. As if he were offended by her apparent ap-parent lack of interest in his story. But he bucked up as the meal progressed from soup through Spaghetti Spa-ghetti Italienne with meat sauce, as only Garibaldi's can make it, to dessert. He grew quite genial and mellow, In fact. "I must see more of you," he said. "You do me good." "We do each other good, you mean." "HpHATS IT1" He was an en- thusiastic as a school boy attending at-tending his first grown-up date. "I could get a job in Mexico. There's a fellow" "But why not try here In New York?" , "In an office?" "Not necessarily." "Then what?" "Had you ever thought of acting," Celia said as the waiter returned with a small silver tray containing a half dollar and three thin dimes. "You know what they say? If you can't make a go of anything else you're sure to click on the stage. And It seems to me," she added, making a fine show of waving the waiter and the eighty cents away, "that with the experience you've had knocking around the world you could put a lot of punch Into playacting." play-acting." He smiled broadly. "Maybe you're right In fact, I know you're right" "What do you mean?" "Simply," he told her, "that I AM stage. I've Just been putting on an act here. Rehearsing for my new play ... I need a girl to play opposite oppo-site me. She's rich as all get out Money doesn't mean a thing-to her. . . . That's exactly the kind of girl you are In real life. So how about coming around In the morning to sign a contract? I'm Noel Howard" How-ard" "Noel Howard?" Celia didn't spare the name mentioned with awe around casting offices where she had spent months trying to get a small part in his new production In any production. "Then, listen you!" she flung at him. "How about buying me another dinner right now? I couldn't eat a bit of that one for thinking I'd spent my last five dollars " j;ts i mom What to Do With An Inferior Complex You may think that you alone are In possession of an inferiority complex, com-plex, but nine out of ten persons also have one. Probably most Inferiority complexes com-plexes start In babyhood. There you were, small and weak and helpless and inarticulate, and you looked up. Above you, you saw a creature towering, tow-ering, your mother or father, strong, self-reliant, able, while you were so weak and dependent Right then and there you acquired the beginning begin-ning of an inferiority complex, and as you grew older, your complex became stronger. Some psychologists, rather than see in the inferiority complex a personality per-sonality handicap, actually look upon one as a good thing. They have, indeed, dubbed it the "golden complex," because as one' of their number explains, "A personality complex 13 the spark that disturbs the clod." What he meant was that our personality per-sonality complex makes us conscious of our shortcomings, causes us to set up resolutions to improve, to compensate for our inadequacies, and as we develop, we develop our mental and physical strengths. We really become somebody because of our complexes, don't you see? What should you do right away with yours? Analyze to see where it started and when. And then go about getting rid of it for good. 5 ft &-yW:txf' i-' Serve Simply; Keep Cool (See recipe below.)
