Look" Romany stopped. Terry

The orchestra leader motioncd
for the musical signature and the
band stopped playing. When the
dancers had returned to their Ia

The Silver door shock with
cheers. In spite of her heavy heart,
Cholly swelled with pride. Was
there ever anyone more handsome
than Terry, standing there in the
spotlight with his appraised hand
and his shining devil-may-care
smile?
Terry sang two new songs,
"Smilin' in a Rain Barrel" and $50
It Wasn't Love After ALL"
His rich Irish tenor was entirely
out of keeping with his big frame.
BY all rights he should have been
a roaring basso. But when Terry
O'Rourke sang. even men who
swore they despised tenors paused
and listened and wanted him TO
sing again. Women wet and want

He will be way up at the top

For ycu, Macushla," Terry
leaned toward her, his eyes deep
with longing, I'D crawl up there

Then, flushed with success and
the applause that still rang in his
ears, his mood changed.
Waiter" He raised his hand.
Another bottle of Wine!"
The light left Chollys eyes and
Romany saw them cloud with dis
appointment and worry Baxter
saw, too, and tactfully asked Char
lotte to dance with him. She g"e up,
glad for an excuse TO step INFO the
dim lights and blink away h.r
tears.
Left alone with Terry, Romany
had to bite her tongue to keep from
telling him that he was a fool.
Il don't believe you approve of

to take away the sting. But 1

predicted, you'll be just as bad.

Romany's answer was interrupt

to the table.
How'd you like to come down to

they were dancing later. Soak ur
