Barbara Stanwyck and sauer

Gets a New Man

. W. - W" 'N''
The speakeasy proprietor was
growing a trifle discouraged.
He talked the situation over
one night with one of his silent
partners.
Il hate to do it, Jack" he as
serted, but I'm afraid I'll have
to get two men for that up
stairs job. I can't seem to find
a right guy who can take cash
and also mix a few drinks
when the occasion demands.
There must be plenty of them
around, but I can't find them.
His partner, one Of those in
teresting gentlemen of Broad
way who share in the profits
but do no active work, clapped
his hands.
Your worries are over,
Billy" he chirped. You should
have told me about Ibis before.
I've got a grand kid for you.
And if you'll give him half
chance, he'll more than make
good.
This boy comes from Tenth
Avenue and he's not so hot on
the parlez-vous. If you're look
ing for the last word in class,
you won't get it from him. But
you will get a hard-worklng
mug who'll handle your cash,
mix your drinks, slave for you
and be as honest as the night
is long. I'll send him around to
YOU tomorrow evening"
The next night, at the ap-
pointed time, in walked the
chap from Tenth Avenue. He
said his name was Tom, and
he assured the boss that he
would most assuredly make
good.

"I'n be absolutely okay," he
chirped. THINGS is plenty

Pay me anythin' you like until
you see that know every onion

do I start?"
The proprietor was a trifle
doubtful. He had always at
tempted to run his spot from a
swanky angle, and all of his
walters tossed French around in
mean accents. Exactly how this
Tenth Avenue youth would fit
into. the scheme of things was
something to be considered.
He looked at Tom very care
fully. The boy had a strong
face and, after all, his partner
: had recommended him most
highly. What could he lose
by giving him an opportunity?
He certainly couldn't be any
worse than the others he had
tried out. So he nodded.

personal affairs. She told me
of having met Guy Everett.
And she said that he hoped to
marry Lola. She told me that
she was afraid of him. The
reason was that, Guy Everett be-
lieved that she influenced Lola
against him. AS a matter If
fact, Christine said she had
done nothing of the kind. She
had no wish to meddle in Lola's
affairs. But for some reason,
Guy Everett believed that she
was his enemy. They had one
