CHAPTER
At hve-thirty, when Anne was
ready to go home. the house was be-
ginning to breathe a festive atmos-
phere. The rooms were all lighted,
and some of the guests were expect
ed on the train that reached Green
Vile at $40. Edward Carpenter had
arrived earlier in the afternoon. and
Geraldine was upstairs having her
nails done by the competent Marie.
Dinner was to be at 1880.
Anne wore the blue dress that she
had worn all afternoon. Geraldine
felt that she ought to do this. that
il she were going to announce to her
father the fact that she was Mrs.
Carpenters secretary and had been
for some weeks, there was no further
need Of masquerading in her ugly
clothes. -.
The house was dark when Anne
reached home. Her father wal late.
Anne tied an apron on over her dress
and hurried to get the simple meal
ready. She always left everything
50 that It would take her only a
short time to prepare the food, and
she soon had the table set, and the
meal prepared. She glanced at the
clock, and with a start noticed that
Il wal $50. Her father hadn't been
so late in a long time. Her hands
were Ike ice with the nervous strain
of knowing that she was to make a
stand before him, that she was about
to confess the fact that she had been
deceiving him. and &hat she intended
to live her W life.
The minutes licked on, and Anne
realized that she ought to be getting
back to the Carpenters in order to
- - 4aaa CT6dAnIV she
realized that she could postpone h
issue, that she could leave a note for
her father explaining everything.
That would at least give her tonight.
No matter what came afterward n
would have that to remember.
With trembling fingers she pulled
some paper out of the old desk in
the dining room and found a pen
ell. She wrote quickly and propped
the folded note on the table before
his glass. She left a light burning.
and with hurrying feet was out of
the house and closed the door be-
hind her. Her footsteps down the
street sounded loud In her ears, and
her heart beat far Once out OF
sight of the house she drew a long
father came from the other direc-
fion on his way home from work.
The sense of freedom was so great,
so-eastatic that 1t was almost pain.
Once in Geraldine's boudoir the
two women were alone.
Geraldine whirled about on h
low chair where she was sitting be-
fore her dressing table, and flung out
the one word:
"WelI2"
HE didn't come home, 50 I left a
note for him." Anne explained
'sreath1essly.
Geraldine considered. "Well per-
eaps it's better So" she said after a
-inute. II want you to have a good

Garriek-''The Great nIu.ioa..

Garriek-isThc Great Iliusion.'
The latest from the pen of Avery
Hopwood. a comedy adapted from
the French of Sachra Guilty.. The
Great Illusion" was given its initial
performance at the Garrick last
night.
Familiarity with the Hopwood
product leads one to suspect that
before the evening is well along
some boudoir atmosphere will be
introduced to liven up things or add
the spice that he deems so essentiai
for laughs. His latest offspring
does not disappOint in this respect
except ii is boringly broad and not
cleverly vulgar in its free adoption.
The purpose OF the comedy Is TO
prove that love is the great, illusion.
To teach the lesson the playwright
gives to Marcelle. a magician of the
varieties with a propensity for inn
promptu romances, the role Of ideal
lover. Jessica Wayne. a boxholder
at his performance. is smitten by his
volubility and arranges an appoint
ment after the show In her apart
ment. Marcelle has already assigned
the evening to one of his fair asso-
ciates. but he conveniently changes
the date and accepts the Wayne en-
gagement as the more promising.
MarcelIe arrives at her apartment
presumably to give a private per-
Torrance of his stage act, only to
find her alone, and divine that
her purpose was to meet him. He
proceeds with his love making, and
at convenient moment Jessica re-
quests him to dim the lights while
he pours forth his romantic driveI.
The final act shows the Wayne
apartment the morning after, and
Marcelle elucidates his views on the
great illusion. while Jessica opines
she will write a book about 1t II
she can conveniently remove him
from the apartment without the
knowledge of the more conventional
folks who supply the complications
The opening scene with Marcelle
performing his magic tricks on the
stage and Gail Kane as Jessica seated
in box supplies novelty, but the
tempo is so slow it might well be
omitted without detriment to what
follows.

an Of the world who comes back to

But, after all. who cares whether
Trimmed in Scarlet" is good play
or a bad play? Maxine Elliott can
make even clap-trap ring true. She

a smart, fiippant, cynical woman OF

Supporting Miss Elliott is that ex-

DIVORCE: LAW AGAIN PUT UP
 TO ITALIANS

ROME. Oct GA law to permit divorce in Italy proposed by the Socialist deputy. Marangon:. has reused both protest and approval in the Clerical and Socialist camas.. The bill has now been examined by a parliamentary commission which has amended it.
 Under the proposed law divcrce would be permmitted in consequence Of separation for three years in the case of those who have childlrn. two years in the case of those who have none.
 Dissolution of marriage could also be asked by a husband who. having been absent on military service. or for tlie execution Of civil or philan- thropic duties on the occasion of some national calamity. could prove that during his absence his wife com mitted adultry. Reasons for separ- ation of married persons leeali2rd by the proposed law include: Men tai infirmity. declared 10 be incur able rendering married life dangEr Ous or intolerable; deserticn on the part of husband or wife; infliction of penal Jpntence carrying the in teTd.ctions of civil rights; and habi- tual crime or immortality injurious to the honor e the family
 The proposed law also regulates out Of matrimony; settles the qres tion oS almony. the Restitution Of the dot and. the arrangements re, garding property held in common bv man and wife; provides for the education and maintenance of child ren and for the institution called a family council' to which Italians fairly now often have recourse at matrimonial troubles.
 However the idea of the institu. ton Of divorce is so strange to many Italians, and is so strongly op- p&Fd by the Roman Catholic Church that many are of the opinion that it has but slight chance Of becoming law although it is supported with some fervor by the socialists.

Miss Glaum Exotic Star in Film Play
 Loves Madness"

Love Madness, the latest J. Park CT Read. Jr., production starring Louise Glaum, released by Hodkinson which will be shown at the Central theatre Friday and Saturday and Ea- gle theatre Sunday and Monday. serv- ed to enthrone Miss Louise Glaum the exotic star, more securely than ever in the favor of the theatre-going public
 It is gripping, compelling picture which holds an audience spellbcund from the opening scene to the final ''fade-out" and it has been done in such a lavish way that it may be char acterized as a treat for the eye and the mind as well.
 Miss Glaum is cast in the role of Mary Norwood, wife of Lloyd Nor wood - played by Matt Moofe-who has become emmeshed in the web of an underworld siren. He is found guilty of a crime that he did not con- init and condemned to die for it. The story tells of how she fought to save him. There are several tense mo- ments and Miss Glaum dominates each one of them by the sheer strength of her art.
 She rises to even greater emotional heights than she did in Sex and Sahara" her two most receGt sue cesses. and has created in Mary Nor wood a character that will live long in the annals of Screendom.
 Love Madness" is one of the great est bits of screen entertainment that the season has thus far produced. It will make it's appeal to everyone.
