to Japan, especially In view Of hts
recent trip to Europe. He is the flrst

people welcomed his return with tu-
multuous applause-and the police
didn't even try to stop the applause,
Notwithstanding the fact that noise
and reverence do not go together In
Japan. Moreover, Hirohito has &C
tually made public speeches since his
return.
In fact, Japanese officials who
were with him on his travels found
him SO democratic that 1t took their
breaths away. He moved in, crowds
whenever he could. He learned bridge
and taught 1t to his friends; took up
golf, tennis and billiards. He even

DIFFERENT, OFF THE STAGE
Master Crook Had to Seek Ordinary
Mortal to Perform What Would
Seem Simple Task.

Dareham Drake, the orld-famous
Aim villain, had had very busy day
at the studios.
In the performance Of part nineteen
Of 'The Master Crook" he had deity
cut open with his electric saw five
formidable safes, mastered swiftly the
mysterious combinations Of nine more,
and with nonchalant air had picked
the lock of his prison cell.
And now, his days work finished,
he breathed sigh of relief as he
alighted from his car and reached the
door Of his fiat.
It was locked.
Anxtously he searched every pocket
Of his clothes for the latchkey, but
failed to unearth 1t.
Here's a fix!" he groaned.
After another vain search the
Master Crook walked around to the
nearest locksmith's shop, flung a $50
bill into the counter and begged the
unshaven man in charge to come and
open his blessed" door!

wanted her. 1t did seem good to be

Pendlehaven remembered many long

hand. The warm red lips thrilled him

presently. "She'd be without anybody
