Women the world over are
the same when they meet for
talk and gossip. They may start
with movies, books, frills, fur
bellows or furniture-but eventu-
ally they will get down to facts
and complain about or extol their
individual Man OF The Hour.
Every girl knows that to hold
your man is an art and a science;
and that, although few fortun-
ate ones are born with the knowl-
edge, most of us spend our lives
pursuing the study of it.
Anita LooS, who made the
world blonde-conscious with her
diverting little book Gentlemen
Prefer Blondes" has written an
other story about a blonde, Hold
Your Man" which serves as the
current screen production for
Clark Gable and myself.
Ruby, the blonde in the new
story and the character played
by me, knows all about how to
make gentlemen prefer her. She's
smart enough to make the best
possible use of her claim to good
looks. Been through years Of ro-
NANCE without ever losing her
head or her heart. She knows all
the answers. Her honest idea Of
love is best expressed in the
song she likes to sing:
"All women like to play the game Of
love
But most women don't seem to know
the game of love
To be aloof is quite passe
That's no game to play
There's just one way to hold your man.
Give him love that will Minimum
With kiss that will Mmm-mm
Hold him close to you with loves
caress
Lead him on to happiness
With a sigh that will Mmmmm
Then the thrill that will Mmm-mm
Close your drowsy eyes

automobiles really became pop
ular, and politicians were prom
Using two chickens in every
garage, Henry decided to quit.
His money wasn't long idle,
however. For, on his arrival in
New York, he learned that two
men named Wright had sue
cessfully flown a motorized egg
crate at Kittyhawk, N. C.
without a seconds hesita-
ton, Henry Jonquil plunged
into aviation knee deep in
struts, wires and motorcycle
motors. The first plane he
flew was one that he had
gone to great expense to man
ufacture. 1t took off beauti-
fully. The only hitch in the
proceedings was that Henry
Jonquil was left on the ground,
watching it fly in crazy circles
until it fell apart on a hill
side.
Discouraged? Not on your
life. He manufactured another
one. And then another. And
still yet another. Until the war
came. Then he made them by
the dozen, and when they
crashed in France, he made
more to replace them.
Thus, the poor local boy be-
came a great millionaire. And
thus, too, the weekly news
paper in Kelceyville took up
the campaign to erect a fitting
monument to the greatness of
the boy who made good with
the very instruments they had
condemned.
The town had taken up the
idea quickly. 1t would give all
the townfolk a chance to make
whoopee; and give the local
boozers a chance to come out
of the local speakeasy for fresh
air. It was a grand idea.
Decides to Go
Henry Jonquil was seated in
his sumptuous New York office
when he heard of it. He thought
the matter over carefully. New
York was quite a distance from
Kelceyvtlle, but if he wasn't
there to unveil his own monu-
ment, the old fozzles would
probably call him highhat. Oh,
He arrived, in his private car,
at the very siding where he used
to wait for the 9:37 freight to
rumble by. The mayor and the
board of selectmen bowed and
Scraped and made speeches

Jonquil was a town boy, an ex-
ample to other boys, ETC., etc.
The crowds lining the side
walks cheered him to the echo.
Banners were strung over the
street from the postoffice to the
hay and feed emporium, "Wel-
come Home," read one in large
red type. "Our Own Boy JON
quill" read another. "Jonquil
for President" read a third.
Jonquil smiled to the crowds.
He kind of liked it. OF course.
it was costing him fortune in
time, coming all the way out
here, but it was worth it. These
simple folk really loved him, he
thought. They really did. And
the monument. That was a
swell gesture, he figured. Mighty
fine of them.
In the center of Main Street
the unveiling took place. There
was small patch of green
grass, and in the center was a
shroud of canvas. That was
what hid the monument.
Henry Jouquil, blushing to his
ears, made a short speech of
thanks, and pulled the strings
that unveiled the monument.
What he saw caused him almost
to faint with shock.
There was his name, boldly

The title of this story Is a
four-word biography of Henry
Jonquil. For he had made
good on a large scale. He was
rich, famous and fairly young.
Life was still sweet, and the
depression still a rumor. He
was a lucky guy, this Henry
Jonquil. Very lucky.
When he was a mere kid,
Kelceyville had been his world.
It was a small town, with a

general store, and a hay and

the whole world. There was
nothing beyond that, except two
steel rails that narrowed into
the distance beyond Jones
farm. And they were the only
things that affected the child's
imagination.
From early morn, he would
sit on the milk cans at the sid
ing and wait for the 9:37 freight
to lumber slowly toward Kelcey-
vile, and then watch with
round, wide eyes as it snorted
and puffed away into the dis
tance.
Henry was sixteen when the
two biggest things Of his life
occurred. One was that his
father died, and left him alone.
He never remembered his
mother. The other thing was
that he saw his first horselesS
carriage.
The machine had once come
through the village with a great
deal of racket and smoke, and
Sheriff Hardy's horses had
bolted the traces and gone dash
ing out in the bumpy fields,
with the sheriff hanging on for
dear life.
OF those two things, the
horseless carriage impressed
him more. Not that he didn't
have affection for his father.
He did. But the noisy machine
had come shortly after his
fathers demise, and it served to
dissolve his sorrow into spirit
of adventure.
He heard the men in the
saloon call the machine '"The
Devils Contraption." He heard
Sheriff Hardy say that if ever
that daredevil came back
through the town, he would
arrest him on sight, land blow
the machine to Kingdom
Come"
Henry Jonquil heard no more.
For, on the very next morning,
after waiting as usual for the
9::37, he had hoped aboard the
freight as it passed the siding.
He left his world for new ones.
Turns Mechanic
In large city to the north
he got his first start. A wealthy
horse trader had turned his
stables into automobile manu-
factories. The boy had little
trouble getting a job there, for
most able-bodied men were
afraid the business would fold
up any moment, and confined
their labor to other lines.
The boy more than justified
the faith of his employer. He
learned quickly, and in short
while, he knew more of the in
tricacies of a motor than most
Of his conferees.
After a while, he persuaded
his boss to let him drive one OF
the machines in a county fair
race. Henry won, with coattails
flying. He went into more
races and won most of them.
Only three times was he

named Henry Ford. And once
by that half-mile-a-minute speed
demon Barney Oldfield.
When the racing season was
over Henry petitioned the
mayors and aldermen of va.
rious cities to abandon fire
horses for motorized trucks.
The going was tough, and Off.
cials were hard to convince. And
during this stage of his work
the up-and-coming Henry JON
quill acquired a hearty dislike
for horses.
But Henry made plenty in
his campaign against horses. So
much so, in fact, that he was
able to go into partnership with
another automobile driver and
start manufacturing his own
cars.
Then it was that the automo-
bile really got a foothold in
the American imagination.
And, after two years of coming
money, Henry Jonquil lost all
of his zest for automobling.

heart of a pioneer. AS soon as
