II Short Story Complete in This Issue

Over his spectacles and under
the edge of the marquee of his
Bijou Dream, Mr. Klinkert looked down from
the stepladder at the slim girl on the side
walk. 1t was morning; he was shifting the
letters which announced the program for the
Last half of the week As far as finished the
rebuilt legend ran: ''On the Screen CITY
GANGSTER and SOCIETY WIDOWS -
Vaudeville Attraction JO-"
I'm 10 Trine, MIR. Klinkert" As the blue
eyes and the soft humorous mouth smiled up
at him, MIR. Klinkert's forehead mraveled.
I'm 50 sorry to interrupt you; but this is
the first time I've played in Naples, Wisconsin,
and / must have line on your orchestra"
Mr.. Klmkert came down from the step
ladder. This amt Chicago. Miss Trine. The
violin and traps are played by couple of
high school kids. But - he Strengthened up
- our orchestra leader at the piano is
Mort Casperson. He's good
when can see Mr.. Casperson?"
Mort works in the music store. It's hap
past ten now; but l can get him over at
twelve
''Thatll be just right. And do you mind
telling me something about Mr.. Casperson?
What's he like?"
The proprietor of the Bijou Dream rubbed
his thinning hair meditatively. Mort" he
said slowly. 60 well, Mort is serious"
Serious
Purity darned miserably serious"
She made mental note of the expression
for use in some future monologue What
wanted to know was whether he'd be willing
to speak couple of lines"
Mr.. Klinkert frowned I'll get him here,

permit her to give limitations of the male of
the species. 10 Trine groaned inwardly. But,
surely, Mr.. Casperson, it S not always as bad
as that"
Sometimes it S worse Take Buster Breeze,
the Monologue King. He says to me, Mort,
do you always 60 to Milwaukee to pawn your
watch" I'm supposed to answer. NO-I
mean yes i mean no. OF course, there isn't
any decent answer to a question like that;
but lot of people here in Naples. where I've
lived all my life, seem to think I'm always
pawning my watch. Why, never pawned
anything in my life
''Al right, Mr.. Casperson," she said after
regretful moment, then we'll leave those
lines out"
As she walked back to her room at the
Naples Grand Hotel she felt she had been too
softhearted. A living is a living; and a
vaudeville artistic forced into the sticks had
to look out first of all for herself
Conceivably the road to McInemey and his
top-hole agency might run through Naples,
Wisconsin. But can't play rough with any
body like Mort. Definitely. He's nice, even if
he is a big boob"
4HE inhabitants of Naples reveled in the act
of vaudeville which played half of each week
at the Bijou Dream That night, after the
newsreel had shown its Last slice of Life on an
Ostrich Farm, and the three-piece orchestra
had begun her entrance music, 10 Trine knew
that the hardest part of her job was done
The customers were pleased in advance By
the time she began her second song, she was
enjoying herself.
I'm gifted Junior Lacquer
And I'm cery, ue1y eager
To cam an inte1estin' likelihood:
Motheh says that I'm entrancin',
All my teachers praise my da,7cin'
And the papers - onyhoc the ones tatheh
Say my eoice is sery good.
So 1 sing so-do-di-do
And dance
She stopped abruptly to glare at Mort For
half dozen measures he continued playing
till, aware that something was seriously
wrong, he let his fingers drop limp on the
keys. The impulse had taken her by surprise
She hadn't had the slightest intention of
double-uossing Mort. but now it was too late
to draw back.
"Mr. Casperson -" Her voice was no
longer the gurgle of the debutante eager to
please 1t had become hard and metallic The
friendly. soft lips had frightened and the blue
eyes shone with frosty sparkle.
Mort was standing up 'Wh-what is it,
Miss Trine?" 1t couldn't have been more

effectively said by very great Broadway actor.
Kindly keep your eyes on your music Mr.
Casperson."
II why, Miss Trine, don't under
stand what you mean"
Il mean just what say. Keep your eyes
on your music"
But, Miss Trine-"
His voice quivered. She had a stab of
remorse as though she had Just kicked too
confiding pet.
You think bit and you'll know what l
mean all right"
But, Miss Trine, have to watch the
stage because I'm accompanying YOU
You're not accompanying me on the stage,
Mr.. Casperson. Stick around your piano;
that's what you're paid for. Start the chorus
again; and if you look at me one single time
more I'll speak to fatheh and III speak to
motheh and Ill speak to my sisteh Lolita. the
one that married the Gawgian prince - from
Atlanta. Gawgia.
So sing r0-dO-di-d0 -"
If Mort wasn't Immediately aware that it
was all joke, he was alone in his ignorance
The laugh was the biggest and longest of the
season. But this did not soothe Mort At the
end of the act he broke red faced into Mr.
Klmkert's tiny Office
Either that woman apologies to me, Mr.
klinkert. or you can get somebody else to
lead your orchestra. Everybody in Naples is
going to think that instead of attending to
business I'm doing something else. When it
comes to deliberate insult -"
At this moment the door of the office
opened and in came 10 Trine, both arms out
stretched.
"Oh. dear Mr.. Casperson, l hope you
know didn't mean to do it; but it's part of
my act and. after made the break, you were
so splendid about playing up to me that l
want you to know how appreciative l feel.
After that I'll apologize"
Slowly the hurt look in Morris eyes dis
appeared. She was conscious of such honest
admiration that, if it hadn't been for her
stage training, she would have blushed.
WELL" Mort said. "Of course if - if it
happened that way
In the privacy of her hotel room she asked
herself, Look here, Trine, what about Mort?
You know he's falling in love with you,
don't you?"
That's just passing admiration He prob
ably feels the same for every girl he SEES
You're not like every girl he sees. You're
a great big wonderful special girl with lots and
lots of glamor."
Shut up, idiot!'
