Brian Aherne.
The story Of Beloved Enemy"
is that of the rather hectic time
Ireland was experiencing during
1924 time when the Emerand
Isle sought her freedom from Eng.
land. A highly romantic and sus.
pense-filled tale has been woven
about little fact, except the period.
Nevertheless, many a dramatic
moment is caused by the situation

Drummond. falling in love with
the Irish rebellion's leader. Natural

truly a beautiful picture.
Personally, I felt that the film
was a trifle long in spots. Still,
H. c. Potter, a newcomer to the
directorial ranks, deserves much
praise for his easy flowing tempo,
pitching his highly dramatic mo-
ments with vitality and softening
down to almost purring speed
for the romantic scenes. I'd like
to see Miss Oberon, who has Ger
tainly proven her dramatic ability
with this, in something lighter,
gayer. She possesses much indi-
vidual style.
Those in the cast who deliver
especially fine performances are
Mr.. Aherne, of course; Karen

Cowan, David Niven, Donald

CHAPTER XVI

CHAPTER XVI
"I understand, said Paul, that
for a time he was-er-interested
in Renita Parrish?"
Brenda seized on that like a
hawk.
"They were privately engaged
it was an understood thing
till Miss Delafield came into the
store. But that isn't the first
romance she's broken up. She
just can't help it, Paul. I suppose
it's all in the upbringing, really.
I mean not having to work, like
us, and that European education
she got. It's a fact, anyway, that
she goes out plenty with the men
in the store-ike Rameses, the
window-dresser-and the girls tell
me she makes dates over the
phone with the manufacturers. I
ran right into her myself in the
buying offices, having a grand
time with the salesmen."
He said curtly: "She had no
business in the buying offices" "
Now the story about Rameses
was a pure invention. And the
truth about AIMS visit to the buy
ing department was that Miss
Shellfish had sent Ann to inform
the representative of Max Furch,
heimer, manufacturer of Misses
Dresses, that she would await the
return of Max himself from Chi
cago before placing any more
orders.
Loves Young Dream" the
salesman had said, for he was
annoyed. But it had been he who
had been laughing at his joke, not
Ann, when Brenda had sp1ed
them.
Forget it, Paul. Beginners are
apt to make mistakes. I'm not the
person to get anybody in trouble" "
It disconnected him to hear
these things about Ann Delafield,
and the very fact that the doings
of a salesgirl should upset him,
added to his discontinue.
What was the child to him?
What did she matter, anyway?
If she were flirtatious round the
store, making dates with the man
ufacturers, how had he ever i'm
agined she could make a trust
worthy buyer?
When the manufacturers stood
in awe Of him and his power to die
tate to them what they we're to
manufacture for Barclay & Weiss,
was this child to set at naught the
policy of the store (only to be
broken discreetly by a chosen few
of the executiveS) that social rela-
tions were something Quite apart
from business?
She had seemed so respectful, so
humble almost, the first day she
had entered the store. From COM
parison-Shopper he had denoted
her to salesgirl in the misses
dresses, because he thought the
experience would be Salutary for
her, after her overenthusiasm in
ordering the masks and dominoes
for the skating carnival, and hav-
ing the goods returned unpaid for,
and, furthermore, he had thought
that direct contact with the GUS
toners would be excellent disci-
pline.
Was Brenda selz telling the
truth?
Why was she edging closer to
him on the sofa, and flashing her
dark eyes at him like couple of
gig-lamps?
you're a wonderful person,
Paul. I often tell people you're an
Atlas, carrying the whole world on
your ShoulderS!"
This classical allusion she con-
Sidered was maSter-Stroke.
He smiled sarcaStically.
Why don't you say I'm a potato,
with eyes all over my head?"
"Oh, q potato has no brains

The Washington times., 1936-12-25

There was a strange pause. The
look in the eyes of the merchan-
dise-manager was inscrutable.
Brenda had an uncomfortable
suspicion that he was reading her
very soul, and knew she was des-
perately exaggerating about Ann
Delafield.
Does it m after so much,
really?" she asked softly, moving
q couple of inches nearer Paul.
Certainly the conduct Of the
salesgirls matters. The morale
must be maintained. Miss Shell
fish should have reported the af-
fair to me. I shall take it up with
her." he said brusquely, never re-
moving that penetrating gaze
from the face of Brenda.
"Oh, for heavens sake, don't
do that, please! MsiS Shellfish
would never forgive me for tat
ting about her department, and
we're such good friends! I only
told you in confidence because
you seemed so anxious to know
who the young man with Miss
Delafield was"
