CHAPTER NINETEEN


GOING OFF for Hollywood was
q little like going of on the honey
moon she had never had, Halle
thought. There was Eric, looking
like a young god with some Of the
confetti from Louise's wedding a
few hours before, caught on the
shaggy fabric of his coat. And
there were her orchids pinned to
the smart navy blue suit she wore
as Louise's bridesmaid. The we'd
ding was at noon, and there were
lots of people there whom Halle
had known from her school days
They all insisted on coming to the
train when they heard that Halle
and Eric were leaving for Holly
wood.
The compartment-Hallie had
thought that bit expensive, but
Eric pointed out that travelling In
style was good business" in case
there we're any picture executives
on the trnin-was filed with mag
azines and papers and farewell
presents.
Sue was there, whispering at the
last moment, "If Robert Taylor
won't make room for Eric, and you
need any financial help, can al
ways dig up a few dollars"
You're a lamb" HGilie told her
blithely, "but Eric's going to be Of
fered at least three thousand a
week"
"And what are you going to
dor" someone asked her, while
your husband Is emoting before the
camera?"
I'm going to study something.
Maybe I'll have a career some day."
Halle didn't really mean that, but
her fathers words had been i'm
pressed upon her.
The way she had received the
news Of his financial collapse had
been like a tonic to him that day.
Years had fallen away from him
and they were quite gay on the
way uptown to her apartment
where he'd dined and spent the
evening until time for his train.
But his last words, when he was
leaving her, were, Halle, it's not
too late to think about a career for
yourself. Not one Of those success
careers the modern girl makes so
much Of, but find something you
can-do, II you should ever need IT,"
Shed really thought about It,
wondering what she could do. The
thinking didn't lead to anything.
All the career girls she knew had
been educated for what they were
doing. There was Sue, a successful
artist, but Sue had been interested
In drawing even when they were at
school. And the girls In the theater.
But Halle would never make an
actress. Shed be stricken dumb at
the sight Of an audience. She
thought Of some other girls she had
met, styiists and advertising writ
ers, and a girl who wrote short
stories. All Of them had taken spe-
cial courses at college.
Halle could not hold her own in
any intelligent conversation; she
could function as an executive
member Of any social committee;
tie was q good manager and q
rood hostess, but she wouldn't

That was what they said every

The tomorrows came so quickly,
but nothing happened and. at last,

speak of $50 a week.
They sold the car for $40 cash.
They had 500 when they moved
to Hannagan's boarding house. 1t
gave them three weeks. And any,
thing could happen in three weeks.
Fortunes turned In three minutes

Only the 500 didn't last more

have known how to apply any Of
these things to the problem Of
earning her living.
A problem, she thought, looking
proudly at her husband across the
table in the dining car, that she
would not have to face. Looking at
Eric, she found it hard to picture
herself even wanting career.
Over her magazine, when they
had returned to their compart-
ment, she let her thoughts drift
into dreams in which she saw her.
self receiving her friends from
Worburn at her mansion in Bev-
erly Hills. 1t was very imposing
mansion. There were, at least, 20
rooms in 1t. She had it completely
furnished by the time their train
got to Pasadena.
The mansion would have to come
much later. In the meantime, they
went to live in cottage that was
infinitely more luxurious than their
apartment In New York, and for
which they paid the small sum Of
$50 a month.
Halle took to life In a bungalow
like an ingenue to the role in her
first movie. She tended the garden,
marketed and cooked and read dur
ing the hours that Eric was away.
He left early in the morning and
seldom returned until nightfall. He
was seeing agents, casting direc-
tors and influential people," It
would be only a short time before
a test would be arranged, he as
sured her.
Halle found herself saying,
after Eric's test" as II it had
all been arranged.
But nothing had been arranged.
Eric was only another cookbook
ing boy in Hollywood, with no let
ter Of introduction, no acquain-
lance with the people who could
have helped him.
After a while his face was ia
miliar at the Offices Of the casting
company and he got a little work.
He worked for a whole week in one
picture and made over a hundred
dollars because he had a few lines
to speak.
The hundred dollars should have
gone into what Halle called the
Sinking Fund mostly because
her heart sank every time she saw
how rapidly 1t was sinking-but
the Adamses hadn't had much fun
their first two months. So they took
the money and went to the beach,
where they spent four glorious
days in the sunshine, surf and sun
bathing, and meeting other young
people who were "in pictures" At
night they danced. after all, it's
our honeymoon" Eric told her, and
that made 1t seem all right to
spend the first money he'd made In
three months.
But 1t seemed such a lot Of
money.
The next week he got $50. He
didn't tell Halle IL was for dou-
bling a stars dangerous jump.
Halle stopped worrying about
money then.
And the next week Eric was
promised a screen test. On the
strength Of It, they bought a small
