Francine accepted. Ted was overjoyed.
He wanted the welding to take place at

engagement of four months. Ted re-
luctantly agreed.

found himself much alone. Francine
was busy buying her trousseau, plan

Strangely, he wasn't particularly
happy. No longer did he have to worry
and fret about Francine. The race
was won. The battle over. He felt free
and relieved, yet somehow not happy.
Ted couldn't explain his unhappi-
ness. He analyzed it. And then sud-
denly he knew. He was unhappy be-
cause he was afraid that after he had
married Francine he couldn't make
her happy.
Francine had always been used to
having things and going places. Would
she be satisfied to live on his meager
$50 a week? Moreover. the boss was
talking about a cut in wages: A big
cut. That would make things worse.
Suppose he were laid off entirely? Out
of a job? How, Ted reflected. would
they get along?
Ted began to perspire. A sense of
misgiving heset him. He hadn't saved
q great deal of money. The wedding
would consume more than the amount.
He'd have to borrow. They'd be in
debt! Horrors! Francine wouldn't like
that. Shed be unhappy. Shed blame
him. The thought struck fear to his
heart.
Ted mopped his brow and wished

SARATOGA"
NEWS OF THE DAY"
HAVE COURAGE" Miniature
WATER SPORTS" (Spotlipht)

Everybody likes a colorful drama filled with thrills,
vivid emotions, conflict, excitement and romance.
These are what you will see in Saratoga the fast
moving drama of racing, bet-a-million sportsmen and other
fraternity of the race tracks.
Saratoga offers Jean Harlow in a memorable role.
Clark Gable and she are the loving, hating, fighting, laughing
couple whose romance runs through the story.
Lionel Barrymore heads the supporting cast as Grandpa
Clayton, Una Merkel and Frank Morgan from a new comedy
team with Walter Pidgeon and Cliff Edwards adding to the
laughs. Miss Harlows untimely death created a problem
Tor the producers, but fortunately, the picture was practically
completed before the tragedy.
Miss Harlow herself is in all of the important sentences
even to the fadeout.
The three or four connecting sequences in which her
understudy, Mary Dees, assumes the character, have been so
expertly made that it is difficult for the audience to detect
the difference in personalities.
A splendid picture, one of the very best, that we recon-
mend without any reservations.
You can never forget it.
