HAYDEN STEVENSON
 IN "FOURFLUSHER'

To be discovered, lost for four years and then discovered again has been the rather difficult lot of the magnetic Hayden Stevenson, who will be seen at the Victory Theatre on Sunday in "The Fourfiusher."
 Stevenson was a stage actor for twenty years and decided to try mo- ton pictures, getting his start in "The Leather Pushcrs" in 1922. Steven sons success in the series was nearly as great as Reginald Denny's.
 He played one more important role and then dropped out of the lime light. For four years he got just enough work to keep alive.
 Then Carl Laemmle happened to meet the workless player. That end ed his poverty. After appearing in "The collegians" he was starred in a super-serial, "Blake of Scotland Yard" and is now featured in "The Fourfusher." There is no danger of his clipping back this time.
 George Lewis and Marian Nixon are co-starred in "The Fourfusher."

 Then she saw Sybil standing un- certainly in the doorway. her eyes shifting from one frowsy. wretched creature to another. In . second Mabel had crossed the room. her white clinic apron blowing out be- hind her like starched sail. She threw her arms around Sybil and kissed her on the mouth.
 "Sybil Thorne! haven't seen you for ages. Only this morning ! was saying to Aunt Emily. I simply must phone Sib-I don't know what she'll think of me- My dear. I'm glad to see you. What an adorable jacquette. Sit down, honey. I've 70 people waiting to see me-but let 'em wait. Whats the news Sib?"
 Sybil proffered her package.
 I've been intending to get down with this for ages"
 "Oh. my dear. it's lovely-per- fectly exquisite!!"
 Mabel handled it rapturously.
 T never saw anything 50 beauti- full"
 Well, that's not all that brought me down." admitted Sybil. and glanced apprehensively toward the N-ray room. Gan anyone hear us. Mab?"
 Not soul, dear. What's on your mind"
 I'm going to have baby"
 The night gown slipped from Mabers fingers. and all the joy in her good. plain face turned to misery.
 Are you sure?"
 T went to the doctors yesterday. Next May, he says" Sybil turned. suddenly faint, to- ward the window, and. when Mabel had opened it, she leaned on the sill. Spasmodic dry chokings and horri- blc sounds came from her throat. She threw her arms over her face. to stifie the noise she made.
 Tt wouldn't be 50 bad-if-if-'' She could not say it.
 There were tears in Mabel's eyes, but Sybil's were hard and dry.
 Don't, dear" she cried. Tt will be all right" Sybil shook her head. 'It's-it's awful" she gasped. "I hate him. Mabel-I hate him! His aby. ." She stood with her back to the window, and her head against the glass, moving it restlessly. Her eyes were wild and hunted. (To Be Continued)

 It was Sybil who packed his bags and scwed his buttons on and drove him to the station when he went away. Valerie had an engage ment that evening to play bridge. The next day she was leaving for Connecticut.
 It was lonely for Sybil when she and her mother were there alone. since Craig had more or less ef- faced himself. and Sybil was rather avoiding her old crowd
 Craig had declared himself quite definitely
 T don't like being a footstool." he told her. And I'm all through bothering you, Sybil. guess maybe you've found my protestations an- moving. You know l love you. I'd do anything for you. But l don't seem to know how to make you care for me. So I'm going to drop out of the picture for a while.'
 Absence makes the heart grow fonder," she parried lightly, half glad Of the relief Of promised soli- tude.
 50 I've noticed" he retorted, 'fonder of the other man.
 She wondered if there was any significance in the remark.
 If there's ever anything l can do for you" he offered.
 "Oh. Craig" she protested, don't be silly"
 Well, just wanted you to know" he insisted awkwardiy. Any time you want me, let me know"
 After that she saw him infre- quently. and missed him more than she had thought possible. Oc- casonally he sent flowers and box of candied fruits to Mrs. Thorne, who was pleased that he remem- bered her preference. Munching 8 sugared pineapple or succulent pear she would contemplate Sybil gloom ily over her sweet and remark. as usual, that she could go further and fare worse.
 Once after that Craig took sybil to road house. It was the first time she had done anything gay for weeks She wore a dress of lilac chiffon and pinned great bunch of silk violets on her shoulder. She wore top coat of soft mauve and a little felt hat that matched.
 Almost all men. she reflected liked orchid and purple and all the royal shades between. Craig had often told her violet was his favor- ite color. She slipped long string of amethysts about her neck and fastened gleaming quartz. fash toned like grapes. in her ears. Across the candle-lit table Craig bent toward her desirously. It was nice and cozy sitting across from each other like that. 1mpulsivelS she reached for his hand. and brushed 1t lightly across her lips He smiled quietly and pinched hel cheek; then gravely lighting cig arette. studied her remotely througl clouds of smoke.

A New Loud Speaker.

The development of sound amplifica.
ton during the past few years has becl,
remarkable. Speakers addressing large
audience: either indoors or out, have
found 1t unnecessary to scream at the
top of their voices to be certain tina,
they are heard by all. Lately. the ordi-
nary voice has been used and is repro.
duced faithfully by loud speakers. Per.
haps the most remarkable demonstra-
ton of the development of these devices
was given yesterday at Hoboken, When
a small group of engineers spoke casual
ly into field telephone which was con-
nected with a loud speaker in the Bel
laboratories a mile away across the
Hudson River, and in five seconds their
voices came booming back to them
clearly and without distortion.
Although not new invention, but
merely concentration of the latest de-
vices for sound application, the new
speaker demonstrated yesterday that an
audience of one million people could be
addressed by a single person in an ordi-
nary tone of voice and each one OF the
vast throng would be able to hear per-
fectly what was said. Not only was the
new speaker faithful in reproducing the
ordinary voice. but the wife of one ot
the engineers sang into telephone III
her home in Short Hills, and passengers
on the ferry boats and the crews OF
ships i'll the crowded river traffic were
astounded to hear Drink TO Me Only
With Thine Eyes" come floating out
over the river.
So the day OF the stentorian public
speaker is gone. No longer Will he
ssra!n his vocal cords 10 the utmost, al
.ne same time gropng TOR glass OF
water to relieve the drynesS in his
throat occasioned by the great effort.
Science has come 10 his aId with the
loud speaker, which is the disSemina1oi
OF education, oratory and music.
