corner on Percival Barlowe's arm,
In spite OF my warning to her. And
I felt somehow I must stop her from
going with him. But to and the

laughed.
Then apparently he saw my dis

money for supper. Where do you
want to go!"
I think one OF the finest things
about the people OF the stage IL that
they ask no questions when you ap-
peal to them for help. How you got
into your trouble. through what
foclishness of your own. does not
concern them. The fact that you
need their help Il enough for them.
Generously and silently they give IT,

Freddie tucked my hand more

breath. ."I'1l see you through"
