Right, old guardian. Now
what? Must l split?"
"My dear young lady. You
don't know John"
"Well, more than half of the
estate is my own. You know
I've made money. Hanging onto
this house has paid. You know the
offer. If John Breen expects me
to drag him in here and give him
either, well, | may have to do it.
Of course he knows"
Yes"
II thought SO. Well, Marvin,
I'm getting back into society a

Mrs. Van Horn won't sound so
bad. He'll have to change his
name, that's all"
Il was hoping he would. Jose

Magic Changes
What in the world did you
and your mother do in the
kitchen?" Joe asked, when the
long, perfect evening was over,
and Millie and her nice Mr..
Harris were gone.
"Oh, everything" Val said
happily.
She saw the whole place
changed. She saw it as she
had once seen Miles flat-a
place of warmth and love and
comfort. She saw herself, wear
ing one of the red shocked
dresses, accomplishing culinary
miracles. She could almost
smell the sweetness of the
cruSty brown bread she would
make, see the golden, heaving
omelettes, the crisp green sal
ads, the jewel colored jams and

She clung to him, too happy
to talk, too exalted to think.
Tomorrow and tomorrow and

Millie and nice Mr.. Harris.
And on the other side of the

Millie, lovely and pale, and
crying a little, stood by direct

The auction is so important.

"Oh, I'm not complaining"

the thought of a sudden trip to

forms juvenile theatrical presentations
The enforcement of the regulations" !"
the report asserts, "is beset with un-
usual difficulties, among which may be
mentioned the dtfdculty of discovering
children working without permits in
performances with short runs; the dif-
ficulty of procuring evidence of age,
school and other records when the ap-
plication Is made only O short time be-
fore the performance Is scheduled the
difficulty of proving employment and
fixing responsibility; lack of co-opera-
ton with the courts; the failure Of fines
to penalize in cases where employment
brings large financial returns. Most OF
these difficulties prove even greater OBJ
non-resent children, and when chill
dren come from outside the State the
interstate aspect of the problem puts
another stumbling block in the way OF
enforcement. The interest and re-
sources Of the enforcing agency seem
20 be more important in successful ad-
ministration than the type of regula-
ton.
The idea that children employed on
the stage are not working, but are re-
ceiving training in art, though quite err
roneous as regards much Of the en-
ployment Is prevalent and interferes to
a considerable extent with successful
regulation OF employment IN public per-
formances."

appropriate of his many roles.
Presented at the Earle Theater
Alias the Doctor" not only adds
luster to the record of Mr.. BartheI-
mess, but also offers dramatic enter
tainment with several points worthy
of commendation. The story in
wolves no theatrical trash, it is clean.
it touches the heights of sacrifice and
family pride, its course is far from
obvious in the early scenes, and it
Is written with intelligence.
Norman Foster, Of more obvious
emotional traits, Is associated with
the leading member of the cast, and
as two brothers, living under false
colors, one through dishonor and the
other through high character. the
two enact a story of force. in which
there is important work for Marian
Marsh and Lucille La Verne, as the
young woman and the mother, re-
spectively, Of the cast.
Various hospital functionaries are
well presented by good actors and
the story proceeds to its final chap
ter, when the man of medical emf
nence must relinquish his high posi-
ton because Of the demands of the
law. In every respect it is good
drama.
The scintillating leader of the
stage program is Rosita Duncan of
the Duncan Sisters, who specializes
in grotesque characters and clever
songs, and has a tempo which con-
forms to her place as one of the live
performers Of the stage. She is as
sisted at the piano by Bob HamiIl
who sings in intermission with un-
usually good expression. Others on
he bill are Monroe and Grant, in an
athletic act; Chick York and Rose
King, in comedy, and Gloria Lee
and Sherr Brothers, in dancing.

SECURITY CONTROL
MEASURE ASSAlLED
Investigator Opposes Bowman Bill
to Regulate Sale, at House
Group Hearing.

The only opponent to the Bowman
bill to regulate the sale of securities in
the National Capital was heard yester-
day before the Judiciary subcommittee of
the House District Committee, of which
Representative PalHisano of Maryland
is chairman. He was oscar Brinkman,
who made a special investigation for
the Blaine subcommittee regarding
real estate transactions in the District
Brinkman recommended substituting
the Blaine bill, which was drafted as
the result Of his investigation, for the
Bowman bill. He claimed the Blaine
bill provides for consideration OF all
securities by the Public Utilities Com
mission before being offered for sale.
The Bowman bill, Brinkman said,
merely provides for registration of deal
ers and would by no means be as eff
fecttve a curb on sales Of fraudulent
stocks.
The subcommittee had previously
heard representatives Of local business
organizations and an argument for the
Bowman bill by Paul v. Kaiser, at
torney for the Investment Bankers As
soctation Of America.
No action was taken, but members of
the subcommittee indicated a favorable
report on the Bowman bill will be
made, probably at the meeting of the
House District Committee Wednesday.
