Show THE Thursday, January 19, 1939 Feb. 7th AUTHOR OF By SAMUEL HOPKINS ADAMS Vni Continued 13 croaked the "Who is she?" wretched and disillusioned magnate. "Search me. Some bright little extra, maybe." A. Leon Snydacker exploded. "That's the girl that turned me down. Setting Phoherself up for a ny. She's fired. From date. Without pay." Moby Dickstein perceived with pain and apprehension that he had committed a major error. If the star went, the job went. And Moby was well suited with the job. He did some quick thinking. "Oh, no; she ain't. Calm down, Bwana. Calm down," "Why ain't she?" Think of "Think of the build-up- . the investment. The Purity Supercreational Picture. That's our story and we're stuck with it and stuck good. What a sap you'd look if we dropped our star now as a snidel" "Sap? Me?" yelled A. Leon. "Well,, wouldn't you? Give it the te once-over- ." splashing localized itself as being within the house. A leak? Must she get up into a cold, dank world? Miserably she turned over, and then perceived that someone was taking a bath in her shower. She huddled closer and fell asleep again. An indefinite time afterward, she became aware of an alien presence. Without emerging from shelter she contrived an orifice for her eye. Through this she made out a man His long, seated in the gaunt, haggard, not unattractive face was freshly shaven, and his whole person gave forth an effect of cleanliness and vigor. No casual hobo, certainly. Who, then, at such an hour and in such a place? Evidently the invader of her bathroom. But why should a house-breakpreface his nefarious day's work with a shower and a shave? She peeked again and seemed to discern, if she was any judge of expression, a light as of battle in the young man's eye. Gloria hastily retracted as the visitor fixed that eye upon her retreat. "Now, you human worm," said he. It was an unpromising beginning. Never having been addressed in pre- - ONE NIGHT' arm-chai- r. trip, didn't you! I thought you'd gone to sea." "I'm back. Unexpectedly." He reflected. "Ever hear of Templeton Sayles?" "Sweet cheese'n crackers! That's all I have been hearing this last month." "Well, now you're seeing him. I'm Templeton Sayles." "If you want me to believe your fairy tales, speak slow and soft." "It's a little complicated. I'm Martin Holmes. But I was Templeton Sayles. Until I sold him down the river," he concluded. Perceiving the doubt in her eyes, he added: "Glunk is my reference. Hi, Glunk! Come in here, you hirsute protoplasm." The servitor reappeared. "Who's boss here?" Glunk thought it over. "Gal," said he. "Huh?" queried the genuine owner in discredit of his own ears. "Whom does he mean? You?" Gloria began to laugh. "No. But there's been a new deal." From Glunk she inquired, "Do you know this bird?" "Urgck," said Glunk. He patted Holmes' shoulder with a hand the time to time. ."Then'the award was already made before you sold your copyright or whatever it is for a mess of pottage," she commented at the finish. "Certainly it was. On my story. Just as I wrote it" Gloria delivered judgment. "Boy, I'm afraid you haven't got a lez to stand on." "Probably not, legally." "Then what are you here for?" "To tell Kelsey Hare what I think of him." "You told me. Human worm." "Well, was I right?" "No. Wrong. guess." Anyway, that's my "How do you get that way?" manded the aggrieved Holmes. "I suppose I'm the one that's wrong." "No. You're O. K., too. But I kinda like this Sayles guy." "Maybe you think that makes him more-- popular with me," growled Martin. "Be yourself, simp.
