Elizabeth after her first husband, Arthur
Kittredge, had been reported killed in
World War l. Elizabeth had been or.
phaned when baby and raised by her
aunt and uncle in Tulsa, where she met
and married Arthur. Shortly after their
marriage, Arthur enlisted, and soon aft
erwards was reported killed. Elizabeth
moved to Los Angeles, where she met
and married Spratt. Elizabeth overheard

She stood up. "I'm sorry for being
so foolish, Spratt. But every now
and then-well, maybe sometimes
you've got to laugh so you won't
scream"
"All right" said Spratt, "leave it
at that" He never pressed her for
explanations, knowing if there was
anything she intended to explain he
would get it eventually without ask
ing. you'd better go and do some
thing to your face. You've laughed
and cried it streaky."
"All right, I will" Slipping her
hands into his, she stood up. "And
thank you for being such calm
person. Most men would either have
called me fool or asked thousand
questions"
With an expression of mingled
sympathy and amusement, Spratt
kissed her. you're not a fool. In
cidentally, you look mighty well in
that outfit"
"It's the hostess gown you gave
me-" Elizabeth reminded him as she
went into her room to obliterate the
tracks on her face.
Spratt was waiting at the head of
the stairs. She smiled at him re-
assuringly and they started down,
and he smiled back. They went in
to dinner with the others.

At half-past four the following aft
ernoon, Spratt was winding up an
other conference with the new writ
er who had come from Germany.
Spratt pushed his chair back from
his desk and grinned at his col
league.
"That's all for the present, Kess-
ler. We can 60 into more detail to-
night after dinner. And you'll start
writing the story-treatment in the
morning?"
"Yes, Mr.. Herlong." The new
writer smiled back, and though his
heavy dark beard emphasized his
foreignness to this American office
and his customary dignity was such
that his smile, unlike Spratt's, could
hardly be called a grin, he conveyed
his acknowledgment of the COM
radeship that springs up swiftly
when two workers discover they can
work together. "When you will read
the synopsis-I am sorry, the treat
ment-you will forgive my awk-
wardness with the language?"
Spratt chuckled. ''In the first
place, your language is very rarely
awkward, and in the second place
