chasing such a home.
What next?" Olive asked.
ITO clear out Of here and act as II
we were broke would be bad business.
If you're to get on your feet, you must
have prosperous background"
There's something in that" he
acknowledged. But prosperous back
ground, especially when it's bluff, doesn't
cut as much ice as you fancy. We
simply must cut down"
She shook her head obstinately.
Not so that people will notice. ]

necessary. have plenty for both OF
us. I'm not thinking of myself"
Suddenly fiinging herself at him, she
burst into weeping.
Don't let's squabble," she sobbed
You mean so much to me. I'm so proud
Of you
Recognizing that the cause of her
tears was still obscure, Tell me-" he
coaxed
After my first failure, couldn't
bear that any one should think less Of
you"
He felt tender and helpless.
But they will think less of me, If I
live on the fat of the land and let you
pay the big end"
She hoped upright on his knee. A
bright solution had struck her.
I'VE won't tell them-not even Daddy
and Mummy. No one shall know but
our two selves"
But I'll know, Santa"
Stop treating me as q stranger" :"
She dug her face into his shoulder.
I'm yours, everything that I am-my
love, my body. What does paltry money
matter?"
"A whole lot, when you haven't any"
Lazily her arms enfolded him.
Such a little boy! Feel safe?"
Her necromancy triumphed
Santa'S secret fear, having suffered
one divorce, was that she might be in
capable Of retaining any mans affec-
tions. To her Gives misfortune was a
heaven-sent chance to bind him to her
by lavish Kindness. She planned to
hide him in the fortress of her tender
ness.
Day after day when he returned from
fruitless search. she would make light
Of his Illustration.
You have me, darling"
That's fine. But I feel as though
I'd cheated"
Don't say that. Give It's not true. 4"
Il know 1t isn't. But fellow can't
help being anxious"
Little by little he began to conceal
his troubles. He was unwilling to
diminish himself in her eyes. Instead
OF recounting the many doors that had
been closed against him, he spoke
vaguely OF offers he was considering.
He found her belief that she compen-
stated him for every failure mildly ir-
ritating.
1t was when he was absent from her,

MUSICIAN PROTEST
MARKS WJSv DEBUT
Participation of Service
Bands Opposed by Fed
!, GRAFTON.

Station WJSV, the Columbia Broad
casting Systems new outlet fer the
Washington area, was auspiciously dedi-
Gated last night in spite of last-minute
changes in the initial program due to
a protest by the American Federation
of Musicians against participation by
the Army, Navy and Marine Bands.
The union, according TO Harry G.
Butcher, director Of Columbia's Wash
ington Office, had threatened to call
all organized musicians out of the Co
lumbia studios in New York and other
stations in the Nationwide network it
the bands went on the air during the
dedicatory program. The protest,
Butcher said, was based on the ground
that the service bands would compete
with paid musicians.
Service Bands Withdrawn.
Butcher explained that the use of the
bancs had been authorized by the War
and Navy Departments and that or
ganiZed musicians also would take par.
in the Opening broadcast, but the union
refused to withdraw the protest. AS i
result, Leon Brusiloff and his orchestra
were engaged to take the place of the
three bands.
A gala program marked the initial

and continued until the early hours
this morning. A portion of the pro-
gram originated in WJSVs new studios
on the Memorial highway. Columbias
New York artists also contributed, but
the novelty of the broadcast was a
special entertainment provided by reg
ular artists of stations WRC, WMAL
and VOL. These three stations staged
their contributions in their own studios
and "piped' them over a special tele-
phone circuit to WJSV which put them
on the air.
DR.. Luther H. Reichelderfer, presi-
sioners, and Mayor E. C. Ticer of Alex
andria, Va, made congratulatory
speeches as did Col Thad H Brown,
member of the Federal Radio Com
mission, and Frederic William Vile,
veteran radio political analyst.
Messages of Congratulations.
Interspersed with the music and
speeches, announcers read congratula-
tory messages which flowed in from all
sections of the country. President
Hoovers message headed the lis. 1t
read:
Upon the occasion of the commence
ment of broadcasting service Of WJSV
as the key station of the Columbia
Broadcasting System in the National
Capital area. I extend greetings and
best wishes to the station and to your
company. The operation of a broad
casting station presents not only an op-
portunity but a responsibility to serve
the public by carrying to the people
authoritative information upon Gov
eminent operation and informed opin-
ion upon issues OF great national con-
Germ. Accompanied by the other me-
diums of expression. radio has played
an important part in bringing this en-
lightenment to the people
