with the other boys while Old
Marie seWed dresses in the

way ever since Jacques died,
two years after they left sum

'Mama!" little Pierre would
ask her at night, "PIease, Mamma,
will Santa Claus bring me the violin
from Rubens' pawn shop this Christ
mas?"
Then he would stare expectantly
while Marie tried to find an answer.
She usually promised him Santa
would, for little Pierre wanted the
violin so badly. But as Christmas
grew nearer the groceries and coal

there was nothing left for Pierre'S
violin.
Marie was usually stolid, but she
felt sad when she left the sweat shop
Christmas eve. Little Pierre would
be home waiting for Santa Claus
and the violin. Pierre had seen it
in the window at Sam Rubens' pawn
shop only yesterday. big five-dol-

How sad he would be if this Santa

Marie was swept along in the
Christmas Eve traffic, downhearted.
But despair gave way to triumph,
for a plan suddenly came to her
amid this confusion: She would beg
for aims like her gran'pere had done
back in Paris! These Americans
they seemed happy enough to help
her on Christmas evei
"PleeZ, m'sieur, penny! she
cried to the passerS-by on Broad

Marie had collected seventy-eight
cents before the big Irish policeman
saw her.
Here now, old gurrul!" he pro-
tested. Don't yez know We can't
panhandle here? Come along now

A few minutes later old Marie was
pouring out her story to the gruff
desk sergeant. She was confused.
''Thees panhandling," she COM
planned. You say cannot do it.
But only try to get money for the
violin, so your Santa Claus weel

she held out her money! only

where's your Christmas spirit?"
A few minutes later a grateful old
Marie was hurrying down the snow
covered side street to Sam Rubens'
pawn shop. But alas! Sam was just
handing the violin to a well-dressed
old gentleman as Marie stormed In.
"PIeez, MISSOURI" she cried. "You

The white-crested purchaser was
dumbfounded.

man spoke to Marie. Here's your

'Merci, MISSOURI" Old Marie

II was utterly still in the studio.
The red hand of the clock over
the control room crept upward. 1t
was as if the very breath of life
were held, waiting for that red
arrow to complete the circle OF the
minute.
The eyes of the seven contes-
tants, ranged in a row On gilt
chairs against the wall, were fixed
IN the orchestra leader. A lock OF
hair fell over his forehead as he
stood with poised baton, his eyes
on Vance Healey, waiting the Sig
nal for the upbeat.
Healey-an impression in black
and white-stood motionless, fac
ing the control room, a head phone
over his ears.
The red rro sped past the
quarter minute. Healey's pointed
finger came up and fell sharp and
quick as the circle was completed.
The baton swept up and the music
of a symphony rose grandly to full
volume.
The fourth of the Semble- audi
ton broadcasts was on the air.
The tension that gripped the
studio relaxed.
Healey stepped to the micro
phone and inclined his head as the
notes of the symphonic signature
faded through the magic control.
His mouth moved; the voice that
flowed deep and clear through the
ether was almost inaudible to
those in the studio. But if he had
been speaking to her alone, the
girl, fourth from the end in the
row of gilt chairs, I'D not have
listened more intently.
Still small and tense, Kit Reilly
fastened her gaze on him. There
was a damp spot on the knee of
her white crepe evening frock,
where the palm of her hand
pressed. She saw it and rubbed her
hands together to dry them.
Her glance slid sideways away
from Healey. She must think of
herself and not of him, realize that
she was in that studio to sing as
She had never sung before. She
:ouldn't do that as long as she
looked at him. She looked at the
girl beside her, and felt pitifully
small and shabby. Her elbow
touched the incredible softfess of
the ermine jacket the girl wore
carelessly thrown over her Shout
ders. A narrow circle of diamonds
ran around the slender wrist
dropped on the knee of her white
satin gown. SHE would have had
teachers and training in European
musical %centers.
Fran had said, "You can do it,
honey. You can win! l know it.
Suppose you can't sing opera?
Most folk like the sort of thing
you a do. Everybody likes old
songs. 1t makes 'em want to sing,
too. Just think of that when your
turn comes. You sit up there like
you're as good as any of 'em and
do your stuff"
Kit sat up and tried to think she
was a. good as the girl in the err
mine jacket, but a pulse fluttered
in her throat.
The girl in satin nd ermine got
up. Kit smiled at her shyly and
watched her cross the endless dis
lance to- the microphone with sure.
poised movement.
There was something golden
about that girl. There was gold in
her hair and the mark of gold
written all over her. Girls who had
that, girls who had French frocks
and ermines didn't need Desperate

Young Jerry did not see his IA

its flame down the liz and stopped

pressed a yawn and thought of the
goose stuffed with apples and
prunes which awaited her.
Mana Harris scrubbed some
thing on the margin of her pro-
gram and marked heavy check
beside the paragraph in the In
structions Respectfully Submitted

ferred to the considerations of
qualities having public appeal. She
passed it over to Howard Balch.
He read it, nodding his under

The program was nearly over.
Three times more the red hand de-
scribed its circle, and it was fin

Something tremendous ad been
circumscribed by thirty minutes,
and nov it was done in a clatter
of moving chairs, of papers and in
struments released from their per-
feet precision, of voices that fell
fatty on the ear in the stale aft
ermath of completed performance.
So quickly vas it over that Kit,
sliding her arms into Fran's wrap,
felt that it had not been a reality.

+bo,,eht of her desperate need

the feeling of ocean spray in her
face, of the smell OF burning
leaves, of French verbs and a
recipe for ginger cookies. She
thought Of everything her memory
