0IBELIUs, the famed Finnish COM
poser, scarcely ever listens to any
music but his own. He has three radios
in the house and he spends great deal
OF his time twisting the dials, trying to
tune in on program of Sibellus
music. When he finds one, he turns
the instrument on full blast. and is as
tickled as child with new, and very
loud. horn.
WHILE quartet was playing one of
his compositions Brahms rose from
his chair and stomped out of the
house. exclaiming: That's too boring
for my taste"
WHEN Pearl Buck won the Nobel
Prize for Literature in 1898, she said:
"It's ridiculous - and l suppose a
great many others will feel the same
way"
WHENEVER Corot found it necessary
to sell one of his paintings, he cried
bitterly at the parting. He was hap
plest when he could give definite
mo" to a would-be customer. You
see,' he would explain on such occa-
sions. Il am collector but. being
poor, have to paint all my pictures
myself - they are not for sale"
WHEN his "Bolero" became a hit,
Ravel was furious. He described his
composition as at minutes of orches-
ira without music" and did not ap-
prove of its phenomenal popularity.
And he added. mo one knows how to
play the damned thing anyway"

CHAPTER THrRTY-ONE

THE HOLIDAY in Vermont was

gusta Amberson's house in Connec-
ticut were over. II was another

other chapter added to the book Of
changing locales Worburn with it

Halle thought Of now, not as her
home, but Eouise's. The succession
Of shabby homes In California.
They were all things OF the past
and now Mr.. and Mrs. Eric Adams
lived on the second floor OF the tin
lest two-family house Halle had
ever seen
It was box OF a fat, square liv-
ing room, square bedroom, square
kitchen and tiny bath. It was pre-
cisely like hundreds Of others in
Jackson Heights. Row upon row,
identical houses, jerry built Of red
brick. stood sung, each fast to the
other with a patch Of grass the
size Of a pocket handkerchief be-
side its stone steps. Halle had to
count the houses from the corner
TO make sure she was getting into
her own. II had two advantages:
II was two minutes walk TO the
subway, which took Eric into town
IN IS minutes, and II was sub-let
for the sum of S45 month
The Adamses were living" again,
which is to say that they had mon
ey In their purse for movies, TO
dine In town occasionally. to serve
cocktails when their friends came
out TO see them, which was very
rarely, since they had few friends.
Eric was a changed person. He
was cheerful and helpful when he
was at home, which wasn't often
He often had to work nights, and
he frequently forgot to tell Halle
that he was staying In Manhattan.
But this no longer disturbed Halle.
She had life Of her own. al

that Shed met severatother young
wives who lived In the neighbor-
hood. She played bridge with them
during the afternoons and went to
the movies with them at night
when Eric wasn't at home. She did

books from q rental library. and
learned 10 sew She made herself
two or three little dresses and
bought cheap hats TO go with them.

But one morning she woke up
and she thought: Breakfast, dishes,
the dustcloth, the vacuum sweeper
and my homework will be done.
Lunch alone. Marketing, Bridge or
the movies this afternoon?
She broke an egg into q yellow
bowl and then she burst into tears.
Leaving the egg and the bowl and
all the unwashed breakfast dishes
Eric had left earlier, she washed
her face and put on the badly fitted
dress she hoped would pass for her
spring outfit" damned her three
dollar hat on her head and snatched
up her purse. She hadn't the re-
hottest idea what she was going to
do, but she was not going to spend
another day in that square house.
It was only a little after ten
when she got to Times Square. Too
early to call Louise, and she had
no heart for the shops where there
was nothing she wanted that she
could buy.
She was conscious OF sharp hun
ger. and other strange things in
her CHARACTERIZATION born Of des-
peratior, an urge to do something
an impetus to action. She bought
the morning paper and read 1t at
a drug store counter where she or
dered coffee and doughnuts.
Her eyes drifted down the eoun.
ter and she saw other girls. read
ing their papers, drinking coffee,
eating toast Business girls, she
thought. and wondered what stimu-
lating things they'd be going on to.
They looked 50 smart with their
pert hats and spring coats. their
beautifully done hair and nails.
Halle felt like an old bag. She
put Is cents on the counter and
went out. walking toward Fifth
avenue. Without thinking very
much what she was doing, she
boarded a bus and got off at the
corner Of Tenth street She was
going to see Sue.
Sue said. Halle, I believe In
prayer. I've got six figures to get
out by tomorrow and my model
