his college life and was president OF
the board OF directors of the Harvard
Advocate. he specialized in the study

Salvation Nell" was written during
his senior year and then he submitted
the manuscript TO literary agent WIN

cav its great possibilities and her iudg-
naent was justified in the success that
she has enjoyed in the role Of Nell
Sanders, the scrubwoman, as well as
tn the success that the play as an en-
tirety has achieved.
Sheldon says that the idea Of usne
tire Salvation Army as background

watching a meeting held by these

did not cover his evident agitation.
You are vastly entertaining
You used to declare that and mean

He looked across at her swiftly, and.

not impose upon me any more than

stretched to the bell. and a look in his
eyes made Sadie close her fingers on
the revolver she carried in her pocket.

smile. It should rather thank you for
that, for you left on the box the private
mark of the firm who sold them, and
my agents have traced the purchase.
Yours is too marked a face not TO be
easily recognized. But, surely, only
recklessness led you to go to a shop
where you were well-known."
This shaft got well home. He had
counted upon anything rather than find
himself attacked so fearlessly.

said, with a smirk. Poisoned sweets,

1T was oman that led me to sub
