 T will--until I get what want. Clara, I've put in my name at the agencies-"
 "A lot of good that'll do you"
 flor place as pario1 maid or companion or something like that"
 Clara was mortified. You mean you want to be somebody's serv- ant?"
 Call 1t that if you want to. I doll't mean general housework. want to live in a beautiful home and handle nice things even if they don't belong to me I want to live like decent people"
 Whats the matter with the way we live?"
 Nothing - but I want to try this. can very likely make as much as I do now and have a room and board beside"
 But you'd be a servant Clara was scandalized.
 What of 1t? Are you your own boss?"
 T certainly am."
 All right, Clara. I don't in- tend to stay as a maid. I'm going to work up to the position of house manager. Just think how wonderful it would be, running a house for an old lady or widow CT, ordering the meals taking care of every last detail"
 Clara said, T think you're crazy"
 Maybe I am maybe I can t get 8 job without references-julst the same I'm going to try. I have to leave here"
 This brought Clara around to her own ethralling affairs and Ann's decision was forgotten. Ann left the rooming house on Frdiay. She went to the Center. The rooms were a trifle more expen- sive, but she was reluctant to settle again until she heard from Cne agencies.
 The girls bade. her farewell in the upper hall. Neddy and Ted- dy openly disapproved of her next step which had been duly report ed to them by Clara. Myrtle cried. Clara was so taken up with her approaching marriage that she scarcely noticed Ann's going.
 Ann wondered a little that two girls could live together, sleep in the same bed, eat at the same table, for a year and feel no real fond ness, one for the other. It had been an economic arrangement, nothing more.
 Carrying her suitcase and heavy paper bag. Ann walked down Mrs. Toilets stairs and straight into ad- venture, dangerous adventure.

STRAND

Ending this evening at Warmers Strand theater is Remember The Night" with Barbara Stanwyck and Fred MacMurray: also Music In My Heart" with Tony Martin and Rita Hayworth in the leading roles.
 Spiced with danger, and brilliant with the shimmering ice-and-snow surprises only Sonia Henie can bring you is the stars latest hit Everything Happens At Night which will entertain theatergoers attending the Strand tomorrow afternoon.
 The picture is said to be thrilling ly different from anything the fam ous skating star has yet done on the screen and makes plus enter tainment for anyone.
 With the aid of Ray Midland and Robert Cummings, who as a pair of enthusiastic young reporters after a big scoop fall for Sonia simultan- eously there is an excellent comedy note injected.
 The timely story centers on an exiled statesman startling the world with his revelations and pleas for peace from his Alpine hideaway.
 Included in the cast are such fav- orites as Maurice Moscovich, Leonid Kinskey, Alan Dinehart and Fritz Field.
 The second big treat brings to the screen a funny and thrilling picture entitled Congo Maisie" with Ann Sothern and John Carroll in the leading roles. The picture is a se- quel to the picture 'Maisie" of re- cent months. Incidentally Miss So- thern was also starred in the title role of the previous hit.
 Don't forget if you want to see one of the best weekend shows in town be sure to see this swell pro- gram at the Strand.
 Coming to the Strand on Wednes- day is "The Return Of Dr. x" with Wayne Morris, Humphrey Bogart and Rosemary Lane in the leading roles; also "The Housekeeper $ Daughter" with Joan Bennett and Adolphe Menjou.

CHAPTER XXI

It was during that rosy week that Clara confided her wedding plans. She and Roy Swenson were to be married on Saturday of the follow ing week.
 Ann made dress for her, and a cunning little hat. Knowing that she must find another room, she let her plans ride, waiting until she should see Paul again. That next meeting might mean anything.
 She saw him on Thursday night and the rosy daze was no more He seemed almost to dislike her. He informed her, quite coldly, that he had been transferred to Moline, that he was leaving with in . few days.
 Ann couldn't know of his sleep. less nights, that. in desperation he had gone to the manager and asked to be transferred. The kiss in the park had done 1t. T can't kid myself any longer" was the way Paul had put it to hmiself.
 Ann felt that door, through which she had glimpsed happi- ness, had been rudely slammed in her face. She almost felt that Paul had slapped her. Even then she felt no resentment toward Paul. He had stated his convic- tions fairly and squarely at their second meeting and she had promised to abide by them. It was her own fault if she had taken 8 casual kiss too seriously. She managed to put up a brave front.
 Docs it mean a promotion for you, Paul?" she asked, ignoring the real issue, the personal issue.
 Maybe little-I'm not sure."
 T hope so."
 "YeS, so do l."
 They were standing on the steps of the rooming house. About to staIt for walk, Ann had stopped short at his announcement.
