for a weeks visit in which they
are certain to renew the affec-
ton that local vaudeville.gotrs
hold for them.
Jenny and Rosie are billed as
"Sirens of Syncopation and Fa-
vorite Daughters Of King Jazz"
They fully merit this appellation
for they established their suprem-
acy to the distinction before their
first number was completed.
Harry Richmond, who Is cred

But while the Dollys have no

he was expected to sing several

Miss Lea Is ably assisted by Clar-

in a comedy playlet presented by

took away with him the last Of Stor-
rows labOriously fabricated peace of
mind. 1t was like the tearing open
OF a wound but half healed. 1t
brought the thought of his wife tor
turingly back to him. 1t reminded
him that his immersion in a trivial
slum-cellar occupation was nothing
more than an armistice, an interreg-
mum Of false tranquility. a burrow-
ing Of head of misery beneath the
sands of self-deception. Yet he
fought against remembrance, just as
he fought against the recurring pic
ture Of Torrie, Of Torrie as a latter
day Penelope without either the for
titude or the distaff Of her old world
sister.
OverPraised Art.
To keep his mind on his work
was out OF the question. The nudity
Of even a professional model be.
came repugnant to him. 1t brought
back memories that were over.dis-
turbing. And he slowly awakened
to the fact that a change Of some
sort was inevitable. though he stood
unable to apprehend even the ma
ture of that change.
In his restlessness, one night, he
accompanied Angelo and Maria to
a diminutive Italian theater in Var
lex place. 1t was little more than
a beer-hall with ''Entrata LIBERIA"
inscribed above its soiled and dingy
entrance, but on that night, Angelo
fierily protested, a compatriot Of
his named Zacconi was to sing. an
artist Of the first water, q genius
with a voice of gold, who should
have been holding out at the San
Carlo and La Scala, but for an un-
fortunate love affair complicated
with a stilettoed rival and q some
what peremptory flight to South
America.
He was effecting an early e.
cape, in fact, when he was arrested
by a second singer who stepped
out on the narrow stage. a girl in a
short pink skirt and little else, q
tired-eyed girl with q Greek profile
and heavy rouged and powdered
face. He dropped into an empty
chair as she sang Monzzocci's "E
Piscatori."
When he looked up he beheld
Fannie Atwill demurely seating her
self at the other side of his Scared
and notified little table.
Hello, you muir she coolly MUIR
INJURED, unedging the bluntness Of
that salutation by the softness Of
her smile.
Hello" was Storrow's startled
and altogether inadequate reply, as
he followed Pannie's stare about
the door at the back of the hall.
Towards that portal she nodded
a diffident and explanatory head.
