 CHAPTER XVI
 Monnie heard Rays voice and looked up. It was Sunday morning Ill o'clock, to be exact - and Monnte was enjoying the sweet freedom of her "day off, celebrat-' ing 1t by the weekly washing of her burnished bronze hair. Sitting out under the apple tree in a shabby old basket chair, looking extraor- dinarily childish in the white smock she wore, she answered her younger sister.
 "Yes? What is it?"
 A new Kay, since the adventure. A curiously silent, obedient, almost pathetically-anxious-to-please Kay. Monnie reflected. It had been lucky ---it had been really miraculous - that no one else had learned Of Kay's brief flight with Chester Big elow, from which Charles Eustace and Monnie had providentialiy res- cued her.
 s.Monnie, I want to do some- thing!" Kay's voice, her express sion were tragic. Her sea blue eyes, long dashed, shadowed faintly with mauve, stared straight ahead. "Ive got to find something. Tn go crazy if I don't"
 Monnie said mildly. But there aren't any jobs for you in Belve- . sdere-"
 II know" Kay interrupted. sThat's exactly what 1 mean. II could get away - to Chicago. Or New York"
 Her voice fell on the name. The magic name of the City. Kay, staring through ple-branches at the sky, was seeing, instead, the high minarets and towers pubic ixed by the picture postcards-the 1 famous skyline" She was seeing the Empire State building and the Chrysler tower, the winking lights of Times Square.
 "There'd be chance for me there," Kay stated eagerly. Il could make something of myself l be somebody. Get some place" Monnie sighed. They had gone 1 over this ground before. She sympathized, wholly and utterly, but what could she do about it?
 "You're too young to be on your 1. own" she said with gentleness. | "Even if we had the money to stake you for a while-which we haven't you're far too young to go or that way by yourself. Mother would never hear of it." "Girls not one bit older than am" said Kay with fervor, "are earning scads of money in the movi0s." :,
 "Oh, the movies. of course" said Monnie, dismissing them. .well?" Kay seemed to think she had made case.
 Yes, but for the hai1 doZen Who are successful" argued the older sister, aren't there hundreds who starve? Turn on the gas-all kinds of things. You read about it every day" r
 "I," said Kay magnificently, s.would be successful"
 Monnie gave her speculative look. You might she said slowly. "And then again you might not. It's not being pretty and talented alone that puts yop over. read i1ukt the other day that Q good camera man could make an actress and an unfriendly one ruin her chances. There are tricks-why, some of the most successful ones are not a bit pretty if you meet them face to face! Don't you re- member Lilias Nightingale, the girl lIttold you I met at Sandra's last winter?
