Girl Who Smiled Thru
b. R RUBINCAM

Kept hands, her wonderful clothes.
She was exquisite looked Tx O
servant girl"
Il expect you looked like that
when Lawrence saw you, and he had
friends that were quite as dainty by
contrast as Lois was" Christine said.
But he recognized our real worth,
and he didn't fall in love with anyone
else. He Is a real Fairy Prince" she
went on. HE loved Cinderella even
when he saw her in rags"
Alice smiled a little at the COM
perison Christine made.
IF you'n just adopt an independ-
ent attitude like that" the girl went
on, shaking her red hair vigorously,
you'll see the flaws and weakness In
your one-time idol. and then you
won't be in love any more. Love can
not survive dislllusion."
Alice started at the pages OF her
book without seeing any of the words
printed there.
Could love survive disillusion, she
wondered? Wasn't love that was
built on Illusion all false? And II
disillusion killed 1t. was 1t ever really
love in the beginning?
She thought about this for a long
time. Christine, having delivered her
scolding, found herself some choco-
late creams and began to study. The
room was quiet for a long time. but
Alice was still only staring at her
book.
Much that was said about David
was true. She had had Illusions about
him. He was weak. she la thought
him strong. But didn't she love him
all the more because of his weak
nesses? All the motherly instincts
IN her rose to his defense. She did
not want a perfect man. She wanted
some n with human weaknesses
she could love such a person all
the more.
And didn't the fact that she cared
so in spite of her establishment,
prove the strength of her love?
l. She decided she would see David
again and honestly try TO find out all
his faults. Perhaps Christine was
right.

BY JACK JAMES.

Wells, New, Jan. 25-Upon the
next whim of Mrs. Maxine Demp-
sey, divorced wife of Jack Demp-
sey, hinges the future career of the
champion heavyweight pugilist Of
the world.
Mrs. Dempsey declares, and her
claim is said to be substantiated by
tangible legal documents, she has
proof absolute that Jack Dempsey,
who has been dubbed Stacker" by
certain posts of the American Le-
gion, did seek to 'evade military
service on the grounds of depen-
denotes.
Further, she AYERS that she herself
signed Dempsey's QUESTIONABLE sub
,stantiating his claim for exemption
under threats not only of bodily
harm, but threats that meant far
more than mere pain, shame and
degradation.
Proof of Dempsey's alleged eva
sion of military duty, so says his
former wife, consists of not one. but
numerous letters in the champions
own hand, written to her to arrange
the deal" whereby Dempsey might
be enabled to ply his trade as pro-
fessional boxer without hindrancc
from the military authorities.
But through fear Of personal in
jury at the hands of enemies who
might be hired to take her precious
letters from her by force, she will
not reveal the hiding place of her,
alleged proofs. In her own good
time, she says, these letters will be
given all due publicity. But until
that time no one shall see them.
Makes Affidavits.
J. F. Giles, the justice of the peace
here, is known to have seen Maxine
Dempsey's proofs" and toahave put
them in the form of affidavits. He
refuses to divulge their contents,
but admits that the evidence there
in contained is Startling and con-
culsive."
In her words: Jack Kearns didn't
want his fighter to be around wom-
en-. He has always been like that.
He has tried before to come between
some of his boxers and their wives,
but not with the same success he
had in this case. He talked to Jack,
and gradually his words began to
have effect. Jack began to neglect
me, and finally his neglect turned
into something far worse. He left
me stranded, and here | am.
II was in Salt Lake living with
his parents when Dempsey wrote
me, saying he would have to have
my signature in order that he might
be placed in Class "A of the draft.
Through threats and promises
I was forced to sign the question
uaire which said that he was sup
porting me and had supported me,
AS a matter of fact, / had sup
ported him, as good many be-
sides ourselves know. and as / can
prove to the satisfaction of every
one when the time comes.
II knew at the time that he was
not going to really work in the ship
yards. That was mere bluff. He
had his picture taken as a ship yard
worker for that reason alone. He
wrote me as much.
