NOA OC AOuCAys
To be lonely in the heart OF
city is altogether = different propo-
sition-and by no means q pleasant
one! It means actual starving for
companionship. 1t means seeing q
feast Of plenty all about you and
not being hidden to the board.
I can remember moving from .
little Western town to Q large
Eastern city when I was a Kirl IN
my early teens. When ny father
and mother took me to a theatre
with them at night. had a desper-
ate feeling OF being an outsider.
Mother and father were together
they formed q perfect group of
two. All about me were groups of
two. Everyone had q partner, a
companion-I was the odd one. L
was the only person in that the
atre who was really alone.
/ suppose 1 got rather a maRnf-
ncent sort OF agony out Of the sit
uRtion. Being the alone" person
IN the place gave mo the dlstino-
tion Of martyrdom. Ny horizon
was shut down close to me by the
rush and hurry OF the city, I
couldn't stand OF and see what q
magnificent world It was and how
much being alone and untrammslsd
by all sorts OF little demands
might give me to do.
There arc two phases to the
problem Of being alone which all
the desperate boys and girls who
write me every day would do well
10 consider. Il am lonely. !
haven't any friends have no
companion. I can't stand this aw-
full humdrum OF work with no
pleasure OF friendlinsGa to tighten
It."
First Of all you ought TO remem-
Der that there Is nothing original,
different. unusual or unique in your
being lonely. Everybody is, The
handsome matinee hero who gets a
hundred notes a day from impress
sionRbls women IL just as lonely as
any Of those who write him. He
may happen to be = little more Sc
lsctlye in his attitude than they
are. He. however, IL probably des-
perately longing for real compAn-
Ionship. real understanding, true
love and enough perfect congsnial-
!ty TO relieve the sheer loneliness
that closes in on his busy life.
Why Is It?
Why is It go many middle-Eged
men OF important positions and real
wealth make love to their youthful
photographers? It isn't because they
are deliberately bad or coId-bIood-
eddy immoral, II Is just because
they are desperately lonely for
their lost youth and thsiy outworn
illusions and the alteration Of adj
mIration which their own busy and
cynical households have not time
to give him
Why does the young millionaire
lolling back in his tweivs-thousand

into activity and life and whifl

Carslake sighed, crossed TO = the

slid It back. He reached into the
little cabinet behind It and felt
around for tire diamond. And as he
covered the whole of the shelf and
found no trace OF It the color left

critically.

she asked.
IF she was clever enough to elude

His anger and distrust rang true.
