On the surface the marriage of George Legg, II, to Dorothy Sutton might have been construed in this ancient category But as several million readers dipped further into the story, several most surprising facts came to light.
 The elopement of George Legg, II, and Miss Sutton, was one of those spur-of the moment affairs so incredible to the elder genera tion and so natural to youthful high spirits. It happened this way: Miss Sutton, who came from Kan sas City and whose Broadway ap- pearances have included "The Three Musketoers," was playing in @The New Moon" ore of the most popular operettas. Legg, a broker with the investment firm of Otis and Company, was seized with 2 desire to see her one evening.
 He breezed up to the Imperial Theatre and found Dorothy getting breath of intermission air at the stage door. The conversation was brief, but caloric. Let's get mar ried." All right When?" Nov. = T can't cut the performance. Wait till the show breaks" OK"
 No sooner had the curtain fallen than Dorothy and George and girl friend of Dorothys and Georges boy friend, James T. Soutter-also a social register entry-piled into Georges roadster and began burn ing up the dirt between New York and Rye. There they reused the town clerk, got a license and dash ed off to the mayors home. And there they were married.
 Characteristic of the impetuou1 spirit of their generation, the new lyweds did not sneak off into cor ner there to await the parental blessing in fear and trembling. No; they proceeded directly to the elab- crate Legg summer home at Edgar town, Mass. There they were re- ceived with complete cordiality by Legg's mother, his father, H. Der tram Legg, being absent abroad.
 The dowager Mrs. Legg, the bridegroom's grandmother, bred in the old tradition, is said to have scanned the Social Register in vain in search for her new grand daughter r-in-law's name. If sht did not find it there-as she die not-she might at least have cher ished the consolation that Dorothy was no shallow -pated, grasping semi i-illiterate hoofer, but a gradu. ate of the University of Missouri and girl of marked artistic anc musical attainments.
 She hadn't the faintest intention of giving up her stage career tt ba5k in the lap of luxury, but woulC pony up with her pay envelop' into the weekly domestic kitty" I She didn't even know the bride groom's name was in the Socia Register until after the ceremony

f with safety ignored. Pete caught Rita's hand and held it, drawing her down onto his knees. Pulling her head towards his he whispered:
 Lunch with me tomorrow, Rita dear, I've something important to discuss with you"
 Rita literally pranced into the Golden Dollar Club the following evening, much as though she had been blown in on a cyclone. She threw a kiss to the doorman, whis- Jed as she put on her makeup, then, just before the commence ment of the show she stuck her head through the trap door and whispered to Ray.
 T want to see you after the show tonight. I'm just busting to tell you something and it needs a lot 0f will power to keep it choked down.
 The evening dragged, seemed in- terminable to Rita, although the "Grievin' Blues" went over better than ever. She could hardly wait for the moment when she would be facing Ray across table, it didn't matter where, telling him the news. Tn her mind she had the scene pie tured clearly.
 His face would change from dumb oewilderment to incredulous joy, his hands would shoot out, grasping hers. Then they would plan the details. At the thought of that Rita executed a little pirouette in he dressing room and chuckled so audibly that Delaney Grey, the Charleston dancer, exclaimed:
 My, something has got into you tonight, Rita. Anything to do with hat new sweetie of yours-the fel- low with the sax? You aren't

While Barbara, oppressed by a miserable feeling of loneliness, was slowly retiring to her bed-chamber a noisy celebration filled Bill Eos ter's apartment.

thinking of carrying him to the altar?"
 Don't be absurd Rita crim- soned and flicked powder indiscrim- inately over her face. How absurd ly sentimental were girls like De- laney! But, all the same, as Rita mascara-ed her eyelashes she had to admit tremulously to her self that there might be something in what the dancer had said.
 Finally the show dragged itself to 2 dispirited close. Sleepy walters commenced putting out the lights as a hint to the jewellers who re- mained that there was such a place as home. Rita was humming hap pily to herself as she slipped out of her flame dancing dress, leaving it in little heap on the floor. She changed to her almond green suit, it being Rays favorite. and happily she skipped along the pas iage out into the little side lane, where he stood waiting. Whats the big news, Rita. Out with it Don't keep a fel- low in suspense" :.
 Wait, Ray, wait :" Say, you're not going to get mar ried, Rita?"
 Her hand fell suddenly from his arm. Of course he was only kid ding, but it hurt that he should iay that even in jest. Thinking
 of her marrying another fellow worse, saying it in that casual tone

 Pete Anheim had arrived in New York that afternoon from Ohio. Tall, thin, he had iron-gray hair and humorous, understanding eyes. Now they were smiling across at Rita.
 He had known her from child hood. Then, an inquiring, raven headed kid. Ten years later he had first asked her to marry him. But she had laughed at the idea afire, with dream of the inevitable handsome young prince.
 He had laughed too, but he had never lost track of her, running up to New York whenever he could be spared from the huge factory he controlled.
 Earlier that evening at the club upon introducing Ray. Rita hat said laughingly:
 This is Pete Anheim, my butter and egg man"

 She nodded and said quickly:

You mean because we've never gone back there before? I know, but, understanding each other as we do, it seems sort of silly that we should bother our heads"
 Ray remained silent Dubious he was and this, he told himself, was mainly for Rita's sake. Two-thirty was late, even for show people, and he had no wish to be the cause of the girl being talked about.
 She laughed at his objections. Her impudent, dancing brown eyes mocked him.
