B. Olws Roberts Rareoa 7.

Little Jennie, five years old, was adopted not long ago by very fine forty-year-old couple who couldn't face old age without some- one to live for.
 Jennie had been in the institu- ton since birth. Her mother visit ed her once every two or three months. But her daddy-where was he?
 The little girl adapted herself instantly to her new home, her own little maple and blue room, new clothes and new presents. She was affectionate and sweet to her foster mother, but her manner to- ward her new father puzzled them. She could not eat her meals for | looking for him. She would prop her chin on her elbow and stare. Followed him about like a little dog and was never off his lap. Always Awaited His Return Theer was one rite she never missed-that was standing at the corner at 5:30 until his car rolled l in sight, rain or shine, windy or cold or dusty. She'd hop in the car then, and they'd go the rest of the way together.
 One day Jennie said: Daddy, if I sit on the steps, will you get out of the car tomorrow before you turn the croner, so can see you coming ?"
 Perplexed, he agreed. And so it happened next day he walked around the corner and down the street toward her. She flew to him, but what caught his attention was her expression. Her face radiated light, she seemed to be carried away by some delirious rapture.
 He spoke of it to his wife. She said, Don't ask her what it is. Do it every night if it isn't too incon- venient. I will call up the superin-

She meets Happ's son, NORMAN; his step. son, ROBERT CAISE; MRS HAPP; DICK GENTRY, Happ's partner; VERA DUCHENE, Mrs Happ's maid.
 In Happ's home Millicent sees the mysterious ''wOman in black ermine' whom she believes has some connection with Drimgold's death.
 The chauffeur is found dead. Later Happ is Kidnapped.
 Millicent and Norman learn the car driven by the woman i'm ermine belongs to PHYLLIS FAULCONER. They go to her apartment, find there the miss ing suitcase of books. Millicent discovers shortage of $2OO,OO0 in Gentry's accounts.
 They leave and later return. MiIlicent waits in n cab while Norman enters. When he does not reappear ATillicent goes into the apartment.
 CHAPTER XII
 sgAyo,.y,, a :, i,, Mi11ioonf called .'where are you, Norman?"
 There was no answer.
 Millicent groped for a light switch, found it, snapped on the lights.
 The apartment was in the great est disorder. Chairs were over turned. The table had been tipped on its side, a leg smashed, and Mil licent was mortified to discover several ugly dark splotches on the carpet, on the furniture and even on the wall itself. Evidently there had been terrific struggle. She flung open the door of the closet and looked inside, hoping vel dreading to discover some trace of the man she loved.
 The closet was empty.
 She rushed to the kitchenet and here, again, the result was the same. There was no trace of Nor man Happ.
 She stood undecided, wondering what could be done, hardly know ing which way to turn.
 As she stood there she heard a ATs 1rw nt IA
 Millicent stood perfectly still. Then, sure that Norman could not be in the apartment, and hop ing that the person at the door might provide clew to his where abouts, she ran to the door and opened it.
 A man stood in the doorway-a thick set, beefy individual with a very red face, who gave every evil denee of having dressed hastily. His coat was open, showing the upper part of a suit of silk pa- jamas. The lower part of the pa- jamas protruded. Millicent noticed, beneath the bottom of his trousers. She noticed, too, that he wore shoes such as she understood policemen usually wore.
 Whats going on up hereP he demanded.
 Millicent said, 'who are you?'
 ''T'm the man who lives in the apartment down underneath you"

| out of your face. You're so nervous you're shivering like a leaf. Now you ain't got anything to be afraid of. If some bird got rough with you I'll telephone the boys and have him taken in. But 1t was a big fight going on up here a few minutes ago and you're not fooling me any by telling me the gang has gone home. I'm coming in"
 Indeed you are not. You can't enter this apartment without a warrant"
 Sister, wouldn't I look cheap if 1t should turn out there'd been a murder committed here and came up to the door and let you talk me into going back and letting you make a getaway" Why, what do you mean = a murder committed! The very idea" "Yes," he said, "why not? But you're not fooling me any, and all of this talk isn't getting you any, where. I'm coming in.' She tried to stare at him in blazing indignance, but knew that the fear which gripped her heart was showing in her eyes. This man was an officer. He would enter the apartment. ell would SC there had been a fight. He would see those tell-tale dark stains. He would in- sist on calling the police. Millicent hadn't told him that she was Phyl- lis Faulconer. On the other hand, sch hadn't denied her identity. She would never be able now to back up, change her story and tell him that she had merely came to the apartment to see what had hap pened to her friend. Even if she told him that much he would in- sist that she accompany him to headquarters to make an explan- ation.
 These thoughts raced through her mind and she realized that she could not extricate herself from the predicament into which she had placed herself.
 Suddenly she decided to try a ruse. She knew now that Norman was not in the apartment, and she wanted most desperately to be free to find him.
 OU, WCALy CllC o1Auy COlh0 Oh in, if you've got to. One of the boy friends got into fight with man who was calling on me and knocked him out"
 She flung open the door. The officer entered the room, ap- praised the wreckage of the fur niture with a practiced eye and said, "A sweet little scrap, all right. Where's the boy friend?"
 Out in the kitchenette. don't think he's hurt badly but he's un- conscious. I'm afraid to go near him for fear he might be ."
 Like that, eh?" her visitor re- marked. Where's the guy that popped him?"
 He ran out"
 What did he hit him with, his fist?"
 Millicent, having embarked upon career of fabrication, de- cided to make her story sound plausible.
 He hit, him with everything in the apartment" she said.
 Out in the kitchenette, huh?"
 "Yes."
 ''I'll take a look" the officer replied, and strode across the apartment and pushed open the door to the kitchenett.
 Millicent dashed through the open door into the corridor. She ran for the stairs and was half way down the first flight when seen heard a mans voice shouting, Hey come back here! You can't pull that stuff with me-"
 Millicent continued her mad descent.
 Suddenly the corridor echoed to the shrill blasts of a police whistle.

 Her Explanation
 The lady from the home ex- plained it instantly. Each evening Jennie stood at the big gate at 5 when men were returning to their families. She would leave her play group to stare at houses across the street.
 Her question regularly was, "When will my daddy come?"
 Her new father kept up the practice after that. One day the lady at the home stopped in to see Jennie. The little girl flew up to her and her first words were, My daddy came. He comes all the time"
 Some of you daddies who never see you children, some of you ma mas who have decided you'll just take little Johnny or small Mary and get out-well, just think it over.

May Brings Thoughts Of Feminine Promise
By VITA VAIL

The budding May is smiling 8 around us, beckoning us to join her the great outdoors.
 There is something ineffably swe and wistful about May; there is tn which suggests adolescent girlhoo slim and immature, yet reflecting u delcate tracery or the offulgent | summer, the full blown beauty of womanhood. All of which raises the question at what age is wom- an most attractive? Perhaps it is the uncertainty of girlhood, her high ideals, her winsome curiosity. her childish belief in the high TO- nance of life. All these combine to set the young girl on pedestal of her own, drawing all hearts to | her. But there is much to sympa- thize with in adolescence. She must decide her fate, whether for a career, or in matters of the heart,
 so much depends on her untrained | judgment and the impulses of her
 heart. In the former she should have a guide. To expect a young woman to know to which business
 or profession she is best suited is too great 8 responsibility, except

HOLLYWOOD, Sept. 2O.-The
little MargO, whom Ben Hecht and
Charles Macarthur started on the
way to fame, isn't wearing her
heart on her sleeve. For years,
there was a great sympathy be-
tween the Spanish dancer and her
grandmother, who also wanted to
go on the stage in her youth but
was frustrated by family objec-
tiOns. When MargO came to HOl-
lywOod to do "RObin Hood of FL
dorado" the old lady had to re-
main behind in New York. Dur
ing the filming of the picture, she
suddenly was taken i'll and died.
Sympathetic relatives decided not
to break the news to MargO until
the picture was completed. She
took the news dry-eyed, but called
friend and for two hours, as
they drove through the California
countryside, she wept out her sOr-
row for the death of her loved one.
Not very encouraging to Good
Samaritans is Charles Bickford's
experience with his garage and

Casa Iona Is
Busy Band

The success of new ideas has
not been affected materially by
the depression, affirms Glen
Gray and his original Casa Iona
Orchestra at Loew's Fox Theater,
for the men in his orchestra have
not been able to take vacation
of more than a few days dura-
ton for over 100 weeks.
The Casa Iona Orchestra is
widely known as a new idea in
musical annals, for it is cor
poration owned by the individual
musicians as stockholders, and as
result, has ~ not only grown
rapidly in reputation in the lit
tie over two years that it has
been organized, but has also made
remarkable strides musically, un-
hampered by the frequent changes
| in personnel which affect the con-
sistent performances of the usual
orchestra.
Since their organization under
their own management, the men

travelled over $4,000 miles, have
played before two million people,
and have filled 10 university and
college engagements in 40 differ
ent States, the latter record for
any orchestra.
During it's first summer the
band was introduced at the Steel
Pier in Atlantic City for a trial
engagement of two weeks, the
famous pier altering its policy to
present them, since it had never
before presented any but nation
ally known orchestras and Casa
Iona had not yet had time to
achieve a national reputation.
The orchestra stayed for five
weeks, and the pier contracted for
its services for the five succeeding
summers. Last summer Casa
Iona shattered all existing records
for the Steel Pier.
