Margie walked out across

reached the center, / says,
Hello, sweetheart, where

me up and down. It's a
good touch and. my spirits

"Come on baby give me a
little kiss"
And would you believe 1T
She does.
And boy, that kiss was
just like that slap.
Then Jack Cornish who's
watching this all very close,
gets ND suddenly and walks
over to us. His face is red.
"That' s not what I; told
you to do, - he says to
Margie kind Of rough. 81

Jack stops, all flustered,

"I know, jack" she says,
taking his arm and looking
up at him with her big
round eyes, "but I wanted
to see what you d do. "
Well, it's all clear as mud
to me-all except the part
where Margie and Jack
rehearsed something ''the
other night. F" And that
night Margie tells me she's
decided to give up the show
business, and the next week
she and Jack run away and

down there getting sober,
or something. You know,
of course, what he's done to
make Lady Godiva popular

Well, my idea is this:
Spend about two weeks
working up that new act |

put it on for Cornish, and
have him sign us up for his
fall production. It's really
much more simple than it
sounds because Jack always

Margie is cute enough to get

 With Helene Costello as the lady of his heart, Moreno's wooing III eThe Midnight Taxi" takes a dlf- ferent turn. He is essentially man of adventure and daring, witt craving for two-fisted action

NEW YORK, Sept. 3.-An evolu- ton in radio receiver installation in the home is in prospect, if the foresighted engineers are good pro- phets.
 An increased tendency toward re- mote control for tuning has led them to express the belief that the speaker and receiver are to be di- vorced again, with the receiver proper a plain metal box and the speaker alone an example of the cabinet makers art.
 If not next year, then the follow ing year, they expect the uptodate radio installation to consist of three units, the principal of which, the set, will find it's present elaborate housing replaced by metal cabi- net, containing only a knob or two for testing, and with two cables leading therefrom.
 The set would be installed in closet or in the basement, out o the way. One cable would lead tt a remote control box and the othel to the speaker The remote con trol would permit full operation O the receiver, by push button. The remote control, similar to de vices now in use, would contain series of buttons for bringing il local and distant stations. In mos instances, eight or nine button would suffice, one of them beini fused on distance or to tune in 10 cal stations other than those oi the other keys.

VOTE IS SET THURSDAY
One or Two Vote Margin
for Debenture Seen in
Upper House.
United Press stan correspondent
BY PAUL e. MALLON

WASHINGTON, May 6,-Possibil-
ity that the debenture plan of farm
relief so strongly opposed by Presi-
dent Herbert Hoover might pass the
senate by a one or two vote mar
gin was incrcaeed today as the SEN
ate entered an agreement to limit
debate Wednesday with q view to
voting Thursday.
It vas disclosed that pairing ar
rangements now being made by sew
eral senators may effect the result
materially.
Under d long standing practice in
the senate. a member who is OBLIGED
because of illness or some other rea-
son 10 be absent, makes an agree
mant to pair with 4 senator on the
opposite side, whereby neither votes
thus permitting a, senator to be ab-
sent without causing the loss of his
vote to affect the relative strength
of the two SIDES.
The lineup had been At to 45 in
H0oVer'S favor. and against the de-
benture or tariff bounty project, but
it reliably was learned that Senator
David l. Walsh Den. of Mass.1, had
indicated he would pair with the
absent Senator Hendrick jShipStead
Of Minnesota. who was sworn in at q
Baltimore hospital. Saturday.
This would prevent Walsh from
voting and make the lineup a tie, &c
10 is, but does not take into account
the absence OF Senator !. B. Ken
drick Dem. WyoD. or the vote of
Senator f. S. Broussard Dem. La
who is listed as the only doubtful
senator.
If 8 tic should develop. Hoover
could expect to win because it is re-
ported Vice-President Charles Curtis
would vote against the dehenture
plan.
Curtis can vote only if the totals
show tie.
