to let you know have decided to go to New York and seek my fortune like we talked about so many times. I saw an ad for some chorus girls in a New York paper that a salesman left here and if that isn't opportunity knocking, then I don't know what is. Even though it's not a big job I am willing to start at the bottom and dance in @ chorus for @ month or two be- fore some big producer sees my dramatic talent and starts me on the road to fame.
 Nov don't you go worrying about me, and guess the mar rying part is of, but you can find yourself some nice girl and sometime when I'm in a big play or maybe even in the movies and you take your wife to see the picture you can tell her how you used to know me before I became famous and I'll even send you an autographed picture.
 Tt was nice of you to ask me to marry you and don't think I don't appreciate 1t, but I can't pass up opportunity and think I am going to be happy and I wish you the same, with best regards.
 Very truly yours,
 "Adoreen Mickletwidge."

 The worst part of this whole business Is that Adoreen doesn't know anything about New York. She doesn't realize that New York is just full of leeches waiting for pretty little kittens like her to show up. It is plain to Angus that there is only one thing to do. He shoots through the door and nearly knocks Mlllie into Q burly truck drivers lap. He grabs her before she falls and picks up @ roundsteak from under the table.
 If MT. Wittenbaum calls, Mill lie," Angus says. just tell him I'll be back in a few days. Tell him went to New York"
