DAMELA and Huck arrived at the
Il theater after the curtain had
been rung up on the first act, but
that did not deter them from TAX
ing their seats at once.
They had places on the aisle,
Huck having reserved these two for
himself when he gave thief remain
ing pair to Stephen
Both Mildred and Stephen were
absorbed in the play. Neither paid
any attention to the newcomers.
Mildred was leaning forward in her
seat, the better to see around the
rather large and bushy head Of the
man in front of her.
This brought her features instant
ly into Pamelas view when the lat
ter took her place beside Stephen.
Pamela settled herself quietly,
but her lips turned upward in a
satisfied sneer that foretold trou-
bic for some one.
Huck reached an arm at her back
10 help adjust her wrap, but she
shrugged negatively and Rugged the
crmine closer.
Stephen did not become aware of
her presence there i'll the seat next
to him until the lights were turned
up. Even then he'd talked with
Mildred for a full minute before he
learned Of it.
1t was a startled expression that
suddenly f1ared over Mildred'S fea-
lures that brought him around to
see what had Cought her eye. He
found himself looking into Pane
las falsely smiling face.
Sorry you couldn't join us, she
said colly. Better luck next time. "
Mildred heard her, of course, for
the insult was too covert to be OPP
emily resented. Instead she waited
to hear what reply Stephen would
make.
Would he pass Pamela implica-
ton that his date with her, Mildred,
had cost him better company for the
evening?
CTEPHEN failed entirely to get
the double meaning behind Pa
mela'S words. He looked past her
as she spoke and recognized Huck.

Job in jeopardy, and somehow he
i felt responsible. OF course, he should
have known that Miss Judson would
not want to be entertained with one
of her fathers employees.
No doubt her displeaSure had in
spired what she said to Mildred,
but Mildred'S fiery comeback had
surprised him. He had no idea she
had so much fight in her makeup.
And even les did he know that
she had been growing more and
more resentful all evening, and that
he was mostly to blame for it. He'd
have laughed outright at the no
ton of his beinS jealous of Huck
Conner.
But he would not have denied
that it upset him to see Pamela
alone with the man. He'd heard
the story of how she'd met Huck,
but he hadn't supposed it would go
any further.
Pamela herself had told him she
thought Huck might be mixed up
in something queer.
CUDDENLY it occurred to MN
~ that Mildred may have resent
ed his attempt to include Pamela
in the party. Perhaps she knew
that Pamela would not like it.
Il certainly was dumb, he
told himself, and wished that he
could explain his reason. He hat
ed to have Mildred thinking he
was tactless and inconsiderate,
but how was he to tell her that
he'd only been trying to see that
Pamela went home? That he was
afraid Huck would induce her to
go to some night club?
The noise of the train made in
innate conversation difficult. Mil
dred was thankful that it did.
Stephens manner convinced her
that he was certainly not having
a good time. Surely this would
be the end of their friendship,
he'd never want to take her out
again.
On the walk from the subway to
her home Mildred scarcely uttered
a word. She was angry with her.
self because she felt she'd been
badly treated.
And she didn't want to feel sorry
for herself! There was no reason
for crying just because a man she
hardly knew liked another girl bet
ter than heri
Chilled by her silence, Stephen
had as little to say.
She did not ask him in to share
the pot of hot chocolate and the
nut cake her mother had promised
to provide, though he climbed the
stairs with her and said good night
at the door.
1t was a good night the GOODNESS

trif1ing misunderstanding, and were
as distant as though hatred mo-
tivated them.
In her room, after making sure
that Connie was asleep, Mildred
permitted the tears that had been
smarting her eyes to roll down her
cheeks.
She jerked her new dress over her
head and threw it on a chair. Ste
phen hadn't SO much as noticed it!
And Stephen, hurrying back to
the subway, was telling himself that
he'd made a nice mess of things.

Mildred nodded.
Pamela looked at her then and
inclined her head briefly. Mildred
barely returned the greeting and
bent her eyes over program.
She was painfully conscious OF
( everything being wrong. Her eve
ming. that had begun so gloriously,
was completely spoiled. She felt
I like a wren beside a bird of para

was like a child'S plaything in con-

1 Everyone around was either look

her. with admOnitionS not to look
vet. There we're Severalf reasons for
this, the chief one being her rich
attire.
Her truly beautiful honey -colored
hair was another And, perhaps,
i not the least of all. was her posing.
/ 1t may be correct to say that her
posing came first. Certainly there
were other attractive and bejeWeled
women III the audience who we're

But Pamela had all air, with
Huck on one side Of her and Ste
phen on the other, of holding court.
Few of those who looked saw Mil
dred at all.
She did not glitter and there was
only the beauty of quiet perfection
to catch the eye, and eyes are not
caught that way except when there
is nothing more famboyant to be
seen.
She tried to tell herself that she
mustn't be a fool, that Stephen had
every right to feel as he liked about
Pamela. But as she saw. through
out the rest of the play, that he
had lost interest in it entirely and
that he seemed to be much dis
turbed over something, she knew
that it would do her no good to
deny that she was hurt.
CHE couldn't understand why
- Stephen had brought her if he
might have come with Pamela and
so plainly would have preferred it
that way Unless he's just jealous
because Pamela is here with another
man." she concluded unsatis-
factorily.
1t did not surprise her, when at
the end of the performance,
Stephen suggested that they all go
to the Judson Grill to dance
Wouldn't a man think Of some
thing like that! But I wouldn't
go if I was dressed in gold" Mildred
decided angrily.

FAMOUS NOVEL AT
 THE LIBERTY T0NITE

George F'itzmaurice's great story of adventurous New Orleans life in the early 18th century, has been picturized in an eight-reel super feature, billed for showing at the Liberty theatre tonight. It is a thrilling tale of slave running and bartering along the coast of Louis jana, when a little negro blood caused a beautiful girl to go thru terrible experiences.
 Billy Dove, who is rated as the most beautiful screen star, has the part of the slave girl. Gilbert Ro- land is the hero, and Noah Beery is the slave trader. This picture is said to be very unusual and fine, being true to those times in every way.
