Following a week at this theater tho group is booked for Fox's in Brooklyn, unless q hoId-over is demanded.
 The Happy Sisters are well known in Waterbury where they made their first appearance behind the footlights in tho Waterbury Democrat Revue two years ago. At that time the trio was acclaim ed as one of the outstanding hits of the show. Frequently thereaf- ter they were heard In local bene- fits and shows ,interspersed with radio work at WTIC, WICC and WDRC.
 Last fall they were given an addition at WMCA during the broadcast of the weekly Radio Scandals on Saturday nights. Nick Kenney, radio editor of the New York Mirror, acted as master Of ceremonies for the hour and he was the first to predict the rise Of a new harmony team. They con tlnued to appear with the Radio Scandals and of recent months have been the featured artists.
 Last Sunday night they were asked to appear at the Paradise Club, New York's swankIest night club just now, during the Cclc- brity night program. Together with Arthur Tracy, the Street Sin ger, they stopped the show and were forced to remain on tho stage after their first number 50 great was the applause.

HOLLYWOOD, August Best story

she expected the best, ETC., etc. He was
duly impressed, for the order was a
large one. He wanted to give some
recognition of the courtesy SO he sought
out the clever wife of a director He
knew her social standing in another
city was high and therefore he felt she
would be able to solve this knotty prob
| lem.
The bootlegger outlined his difficulty
which was whether he should send Miss
Maxwell bottle or two of champagne
with his compliments
Would that" he inquired quantity,
'be just jake with her?'
The directors wife lives to make her
husband laugh. He was sitting in the
| living room reading and listening to
this somewhat unusual conversation be-
tween his wife and the bootlegger. The
bootlegger ended by saying, so what
shall I do, Mrs. x, on account of
how want to do the chick thing?"
Mrs. x reflected a moment, then
said, "Of course, you know Miss Max
well is the arbiter elegantarium of
Parjs?"
The bootlegger stood for a Mortified
moment, his eyes bulging, then. My
God, no!' he shouted Thanks for
warning mel" And he bolted from the
house without further ado.

i mean it," she repeated in hard
voice I'd never heard before. Put up
your hands"
1t was impossible to obey. In fact.
and in spite of that ominous cold
touch on my neck, believe l was too
numb with shock to lii, my hands.
Then slowly I turned. The girl
backed away so that she still held me
IN range of that small pistol The
girl was not Sue Tally-or rather she
was not the girl I knew as Sue Tally.
For when I said slowly: who are
you?" she replied:
i am Sue Tally. I've told you
twice to put up. your hands. This
gun is loaded, and I'm a good shot"
I stood there looking at her She
was of the same general height and
build as Sue, but lacked Sues fine
ness of wrist and ankle and delicacy
of proportion. She was fair, too, and
wore her hair like Sues She was even
dressed in black velvet coat, like Sues
But she did not resemble Sue in the
least. A general written description of
height. weight and coloring might have
applied to them both, but they were not
at all alike.
Then a Mortified question crashed
upon me. Where was Sue? What had
happened? Where had she gone?
You don't want to shoot me-"
said. 1T won't do you any good There
are too many gendarmes in the place
for you to escape"
They are drinking in the kitchen
Paul likes having them there" She
spoke a little contemptuously, but her
hard eyes did not waver from mine
I'm Sue Tally" she reiterated, "and
want the paper you took from the
priests room short time ago. Don't
deny it, for I saw you. That paper be-
longs to me-"
80 you are Sue Tally" I said,
thoughtfully. Il had suspected your
presence for some time. Can't We sit
down and talk this over more AMIGA
bly?"
She did not relax her hold on the
pistol and eyed me suspiciously. I
went on
Where have they been keeping YOU
all this time? Hasn't it grown little
tiresome. lodging the police, hiding
here and there?"
She bit her lip. I thought suddenly
that there was something at the same
time shrewd and stupid about her face.
She said: 1T was easy enough. All
but those nights in the storeroom.
Come, give me the paper"
had not expected that. even though I
had guessed that she was about some
where, waiting to carry out her role in
the conspiracy.
I'm the storeroom," I repeated SYM
pathetically. You poor girl. 1t must
have been most uncomfortable. The
smoke from your cigarettes drifted up
to me one night"
"Oh, it wasn't difficult to stay out Of
peoples way. Anyway, at distance
look rather like-this other girl. had
this coat made like hers on purpose
OF course, I've not been in the hotel all
the time I've been staying at Paul's-
the cooks house"
"Oh, so you've been staying at
Paul's." I thought the girl had been
bored and dull; she was probably not
averse to talking to some one. Her
hand did not waver with the pistol but
she was looking rather approvingly at
me. The Lovschiem's haven't been
treating you very well. have they?"
It was lucky thing to say

Is not one of those quick starting and

Despite the vigorous presence Of Miss
DreSsler, the comic gifts of Mr.. Beery
and the natural interest attached to the
exposition of the first stages of plot,
the opening scenes of 'Tugboat Annie"
are almost painfully dull. Clogged with
heavy-handed sentiment, lacking action
and the rip-snorting humor one expects
from these two stars. the first passages
of the play may heartily discourage
the fans who have built up enormous
expectations while waiting for this film.
And there the story does not end.

it is going near top speed, and in the
