sight of her fathers golden oak bed.

T IKE a. child she put her arm
IL about his neck and lifted her
mouth to his. The simplicity Of the
movement reminded him of Sally.
He didn't wish to think of her.
Sally Osbourne was, indeed, the
last person in the world he ever
wished to think of, but the resem-
blance which had haunted him since
the night he met Madalyn returned
to torture him now, making him
pretend with diabolic inSistence that
it was Sally who was in his arms
Sally, who murmured, az didn't in
tend to hurt your feelings"
"It doesn't matter" he answered.
"But, honey, it does. I've wanted
you since so many, many times.
you've wanted me?"
"Yes, I've wanted for you to come
until I'm just about sick"
"But why?"
Because I love you. I can't keep
from loving you"
Checking her smothered cry he
snatched her to him and kissed her
madly. And, true to her promise
this time Madalyn did not push him
away.
1t was the boy who cried, "Oh,
darling, I'm not fit to love you'll"
Howell, what do you mean? Are
you crazy?"
at think I must be, he muttered.
Selling his hat he rushed from
the door, frightened at his own re-
action. For until his lips touched
hers he had forgotten that it was
Madalyn. 1t was to Sally he had
spoken.

CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR

He waited, expecting her to open
It. The closing of the door had
been provokingly abrupt. 1t wasn't
like Madalyn to terminate a con-
versation. The incident seemed in
oicative of more spirit than the
little waitress usually showed. For
moment Howell felt strong desire
to pound upon the door, then
apathy, like way, submerged him.
What did it matter? With
enrug OF indifference he fastened
dem the steps and out into the
treet. The only thing in the world
l.. really craved was 500.
He returned to his room over the
rarage and as he turned the key an
envelope stuck in the door slipped
10 his feet. 1t was a special deliv-
cry from Agnes.
Agnes never would forget his
birthday. Seated at the felt-covered
table, Howell slit the envelope and
drew out a folded sheet of note pa
per. A check for 500 was pinned
inside.
Happy birthday. DEAR" the little
note said: use this to come home
End get acquainted with your name
sake"
Howell stared at the slip of paper
with tears in his eyes. He could
imagine what sacrifice a gift like
this meant to Agnes. He shouldn't
accept it. Especially since he
couldn't go home.
But here, like an answer to pray
er. was his chance OF repaylng
"Lambie." If Agnes knew the cir
cumstance, wouldn't she want him
to use it? There had been such a
bond of sympathy between them.
Until he came to Hollywood they
never had disagreed about anything.
He could imagine Agnes saying
Its yours. dear. We wanted you
to come home of course, but never
mind. I understand"
Next to his mother, Agnes was
the most unselfish person he had
ever known. Dear Agnes! Little
she realized what she had done for
him. Too excited to go to bed. he
sat by the window, staring out into
+ the night.
First thing in the morning he
would obtain money order for 500
and mail it to ''Lambie." He was
already composing the letter which
should accompany it.
my Dear Mrs. Matthews: I am
returning the 500 I borrowed some
time ago. With sincere gratitude
for the many favors you have SO
kindly shown me, am, yours truly,
HOWELL SHEFFIELD"
That would surprise her. 1t prob
ably would make her angry but he
would not be able to rest until the
money was in her hands; and since
he could not use the birthday gift
as Agnes suggested, he would have
to return it; but in order to do this
he must obtain additional employ
naent.

FOX PROGRAM
WINS GOOD
RATING

Beginning with the overture
and continuing until lights up"
the Fox pre-inaugural program
is completely entertaining with
its rapid-action feature film and
it's fast-moving stage presentation
"Blindfold," from the pen OF
Charles Francis Coe, and featuT
ing Lois Moran and George
O'Brien, gives a slightly differ
ent version Of the old reliable
story of the clash between law
and order. Mary Brewer, a ris
ing young authoress, Arranging
a birthday dinner for her sweet
heart, Officer Kelly. sends her
kid brother to the corner drug
store for ice cream; that is the
simple enough opening for any
story, but when Buddy stops in
a jewel store to purchase a small
gift for his friend, he surprises
a notorious band of jewel thieves,
and is needlessly murdered.
Officer Kelly out-witted by the
criminals, suspended from the j.
lice force, and determined to
avenge the death of his young
friend, doubles his efforts an
works alone, when the girl,
Mary, disappears. How Kelly
finds Mary and eventually rounds
up the gang" is a tribute not
alone to the actors and the writer,
but to the director.
Lois Moran is surprisingly vital
at times and wears a couple of
very smart frOcks. George
O'Brien is we'll cast as Officer
Kelly and the support includes
such capable players as Earle
Foxe, Maria Alba and Fritz Field.
The picture is synchronized and
the musical score is accredited TO

RALSTON GIRL
IN BEST OF
CAREER

"The Case of Lena Smith,
Paramount feature film (silenD at
Loew's Palace. is an epic story of
the worlds injustice to woman.
In it Esther Ralston does the
best work of her career. josef
Won Sternberg, maker of Under
world" took her from the ranks
of the pretty ladies and made her
an actress. She responded sym.
pathetically to his direction.
Around this central character
Won Sternberg worked a cast
chosen for valiant service before
the camera--GustaV Won Seyf-
fertitz, Emily Fitzroy, James Hal,
Fred Kohler and others.
1t is the simple, straight-away
story of a. Hungarian peasant
girl. She rejects the cows and
chickens and a substantial rural
swain for the lights of Vienna.
A romance with a student officer
leaves her with a baby to sup
port, and a marriage that must
be kept secret.
She obtains a job as maid in
the home of the baby's father.
Papa's parents don't know about
the marriage or the baby. Grand
pa, grim old soul, Is head of the
Vienna Bureau of Morals. Q
suspects our heroine of cutting up
and discharges her. She is inso-
lent, and he causes an investiga-
ton, which results in a raid on
her home. The baby is taken
away to an asylum and the girl is
sent to the workhouse.
Through revelation Of her mar
riage, she wins back her baby and
returns to the country. Years
later the boy is grown and his
country takes him away to war
the war that was to last only
few weeks"
There is something of splendid
allegory in this picture, for it
shows, without showing the fact
in ones face, the various paths
taken by the characters, in search
of happiness.
The way of the baby's father
leads to the most impressive
suicide we have seen in a long
time. Grandpa's way leads to
grief and humiliation. Lena's
way leads to brief snatches of
joy and tedious rounds of crush
ing sorrow.
Won Sternberg didn't make this
picture for the boxoffice, but it
is to be hoped that the mass of
the film fans will take it to
their bosoms.
The stage presentation, "Cool-
ing Off," makes capital of Byrd s
expedition to the freezing South.
A penguin ballet is amusing, and
the icicle dance is well staged.
Among the specialties are Pickard
and his trained seal, the Wallace
sisters, George Givot and George
Moeser, a hot hoofer. The
Candy Hale girls do the dancing.
Wesley Eddy, of course, presides
genially over it all.
The Fox Movietone New s
offers a diverting picture of
Young Strfbling boxing with his
baby "son, and the M-G-M reel
has an exclusive photo of the
signing of the pact between
Mussolini and the Pope, creating
Vatican City,. r.

EARLE OFFERS
A. MYSTERY
TALKER
fOrmance.

Strange Cargo" a mystery
play, teeming with exciting in.
cidents, tense situations and
thrilling melodrama, comes to
the Earle this week as Pathe's
first all.talkie picture. For the
most part, it is an outstanding
success. The play, lends itself
admirably to synchroni2atton,
but it does take some little time
to accustom oneself to a decided
cockney accent peculiar to most
of the players. However, this
accomplished, Strange Cargo"
enIists the closest attention and
interest.
The quest for the solution of
the doctors murder provides the
action which occurs aboard the
victims palatial yacht. To di-
vulge any of the story would be
unfair to those who have yet to
attend.
A cast of IA players, all pcr.
traying important roles, makes it
quite difficult to name any one
to a respective part. Without
exception the acting is splendid.
Able readers, all are admirably
suited to the spoken drama.
Warner Richmond, though seen
and heard here in a minor role,
has one of the best voices thus far
noted IN the talking films. Lee Pat
rick, June Nash, George Bar.
raud, Kyrle Bellew, Russell Glea-
son and Frank Reicher are num-
bered in the capable caste. An
