She wondered how May would fel

Dick had forbidden her to be seen

she had wanted to be seen with May

May Seymour. No indeed.
Gloria began to perceive. dimly,
that neither law nor law makers rule
this world of our, but that four little
words do What VIII People
Say?"
Well, people never would say
the things about her and Stan that
they were saying about May and
Jim, that reckless pair! She would
never give them the chance
she would be too clever for them
Gloria made up her mind. There
must be ways . ways of seeing
Stan without anyone being the wiser
The thought of not seeing him at all
did not occur to her.
She went clip-clopping upstairs in
her blue satin mules.
Ranghild was cleaning out Gloria

The sight of all her dresses hang

Gloria think suddenly Of Myra Gail

CHAPTER AAlll
RI DON after Mays fearful
~ telephone message. Mother
Gregory got up to go. She
wrapped herself in her black broad
cloth and furs that always smelled
of mothballs, and pecked Gloria on
her cheek.
"Goodby," she said severely. "And
I hope that your friend, Mrs. Sey-
mour, will be an example to you OF
what happens to foolish wives who
go traipsing around with men who
wouldn't marry them if they had the
chance! Decent women simply
won't have anything to do with
them. And you can tell May Sey'
mour for me that until she gives up
that Carewe, she can whistle and
wait to get into the Home Woman's
Club, or any other club where I'm a
member! For I'll vote her down
every time She's a disgrace to this
town.
Mother Gregory jerked her veil
down over her Roman nose, and
swept out of the house like a ship
in full sail
SO, Gloria thought, it was
Mother Gregory, who had kept May
out Of the club! What hateful
woman Dicks mother was!
And how dreadful for May to
know that hundreds of women were
against her, wanted to have nothing
at all to do with her! To know that
dozens of tongues were wagging
about her and her affair with Jim
Carewe! And yet, Gloria knew
that but for the grace Of Providence,
she might be in the same boat with
May Seymour, this very minute
For someone besides Mother
Gregory, might have seen her and
Stan Wayburn in her car, just as
people had seen May and Jim to-
gether! And there would be talk
and talk until the whole town
would be talking about her and
Stan.
Gloria shivered as she picked up
the telephone and gave Mays num-
Der.

ing to Dicks mother" Gloria began
unhappily when May answered her
ring. Il did my very best for you
but it's no use! She says
there's not a ghost of a chance for
you to get into the club. -. You're
right, there has been lot of talk
about you and Jim! At least,
Mother Gregory says there has. ="
1.-THE old hypocrite!" May broke in
harshly. "I'Il bet she's at the bot
tom Of the whole thing! She's al
ways hated me the way a lot Of
other women in this town have.
because I married their dear, dear
doctor!. Women always have
cozy corner in their hearts for the
family doctor. And they sure do
hate him to have a wife. I've found
that outp'
Gloria laughed in spite of herself.
But not Mother Gregory" she
protested. why, she's old enough
to be DIR. Johns mother. ..."
"Oh, I don't mean she's in love
with him, you poor prune" May
broke in. That's absurd. But just
the samey, women like to think that
their sympathetic doctor takes a per-
sonal interest in all their aches and
pains. They love to go to him with
their troubles. oh, I could tell
you a thing or two about being a
doctors wife, If I wanted to! You
don't know the half of it, dearie!''

Nazlmova.

ALA NaZimova is one of the most
versatile actresses on the screen or
stage. Whether she be playing a
mannequin, French gamin or nun
she gives TO her role a consummate
artistry.
Nazimova combines the advantage
of born actress with years of eX-
perience. Even as a child in Russia
she held audiences spellbound with
her natural acting. Acting with
Nazimova is vital. The motion pic
ture camera as a vehicle which trans
mits dramatic expression. makes it
possible to get an intimate view of
the actresses mind.
In Madonna of the Streets" which
brought Nazimova back to the screen
after two years on the vaudeville
stage, sthe actress played her role with
as much force and fervor as if she
had not been away from the cameras
at all.
In My Son." she has a far greater
role. She plays a mother for the first
time in her career-a Portuguese
mother. Her great love for her son

Easy to FORGET.

MILITARY training is something
men readily forget. This was
learned by King Vidor recently while
directing The Big Parade" from the
story by Lawrence Stallings, co-au-
thor of What Price Glory?'
Vidor is using many veterans in
the production and when a full COM
pany had been formed from the cast
ing Offices selections, with the as
sistance of the American Legion, a
few maneuverS were tried.
Even the simplest and most elemen-
tary formations had been forgotten.
Such confusion resulted that Vidor
took pains to ascertain that all mem
bers of the company were bona fide
veterans. He discovered that nearly
all had been in France and scarcely
any of them had been in service less
than a year.
Filming of the scenes requiring
military formation were postponed
forthwith and the company assigned
to hours of intensive daily drill.
