Then suddenly she spied It. a |
scrap of paper propped against
the sugar bowl on the red check
cred table. A telephone message,
a nickel carefully placed in a
prominent spot lest Sheila might
not have the change. Dear Ma!
She knew that lack OF nickel
could spell downright disasterl
THE note read: "Sheila call Mr..
l. Mandrake at Bryant OOPS. 1t
may be a job.-Ma."
Ma had taken messages before.
Scrawled in the corner. as an
afterthought, Sheila found, Must
Of phoned around 2:30."
1t was hardly $3.50 now. II
Mandrake wanted to see her that
afternoon she had time to reach
his office even allowing a half
hour in which to freshen up.
She was trembling as the nickel
chimed in the pay telephone In
the street floor hall. Sheila gave
the Bryant number without look
ing at the paper in her hand.
Early in the season she had MEM
orized 1t.
"Mr. Mandrake's office? This Is
Miss Shayne calling. l have q
message asking me to phone"
The telephone operators voice
sounded aloof, noncommittal.
Paine? What do you want to
talk to Mr.. Mandrake about"
Sheila frowned unhappily. This
seemed a bad omen. The entire
office should. she felt. have been
electrified to receive her call.
"Shayne!" she repeated pa
tiently. "Sheila Shayne. Mr.. Man
drake called me an hour ago."
After an interminable stretch OF
heart beats and telephone clicks
another more decisive click sound
ed in the receiver. A voice.
DUT it was not Mandrake. II
was a woman's voice, clipped
and naughty this time, asking
what Sheila wanted.
"Mr. Mandrake called me a.
about 1890 and asked me 10 call
This is Sheila Shayne speaking
There was a silence.
"Mr. Mandrake was in confer

grumbled. Miss Bell was a popu.
liar young woman who had recent
~ departed and for whom the
telephone rang constantly.
OF course It couldn't be q mes.
sage for Sheila herself. Dick
never called in mid'afternoon.
Phil Short was away. An agent
wouldn't call at such an hour.
But there was no help for It.
Sheila would have to answer.
"Hello," she said indifferently.
Then her face changed, bright
ened.
1t was Mandrake himself whose
voice she heard. Miss Shaypef"
the voice said. This is Mandrake
speaking. l called you this att

it is a secretary's business to keep

"The-the time may be wrong"
Sheila stammered. but that was

"Sorry!" This time the voice
dismissed her. "Mr. Mandrake

Sheila hung up the receiver.

"Well," Sheila thought. trying
to laugh, 81 wanted a shampoo

But it wasn't funny-losing the
chance of a Job with Mandrake.
No matter how she tried. Sheila
couldn't persuade herself that It
