I must have looked dumbly at the
ranting director for be repeated. ".Mr.
Stratton la too busv to see you to
day, i shall be glad to deliver any
message you have."
My eye caught my curd In his
hand. I knew then that he had mil
delivered it. I knew something of
the way of, casting directors mean
Uttle waya so I tiled agu'.u. Baying:
"Will you please ak bim when I
can see him. Mr. Stratton made
rather a point of this rail and I am
quite sure that he must have mis
understood uiy name."
"I can hardly take that message,
Miss Winston, today. Mr. Stratton
Is particularly busy, but rest assured
that I will give It to him as soon as
possible and you will probably hear
from him."
"Thank you very much."
Check-mated, disappointed and dis
couraged. I alpioat gave way to tears
then and there. With an effort 1
managed to keep my eyes from filling
until I was through the outer door,
but all the way home on the street
car tears rolled down my face and
made me the object of much char-1
liable curiosity on the part of thej
woman sitting beside me. I was re-i
lleved that she did nut question me.
Womanlike, I Bhould have cried the
more.
I had no heart to call on Tony Mcl-j
villi). In fact I was so weak that 1
could hardly drag myself to the
apartment from the street car. Ij
managed to take off Kitty's sport suit;
and my tears flowed afresh as I re-,
culled the thrilled expectation wilh j
which I had put it on. I
I threw myself across the bed and
burying my face in the pollow, 1
sobbed out my lonelines and dis-!
heartened disappointment. I
"Why. Virgie! What has happen
ed? I heard you sobbing clear outi
in the hall."
Kitty's anna were around me
quickly and In a moment she was
willing the tears from my eyes with
a silly littlo brilliant green handker
chief about as big as a postage stamp.
"What is the matter? Stratton?",
she demanded laconically. !
"Yes!" I blurted out between sobs.
"Was he nasty to you?"
"I didn't see bim."
"What! Tell me about It,' com-,
manded Kitty. '
"I gave my card to the casting di
rector, who , was very high and
mighty." I
"Of courso, that Is to he expected, i
They are not really hih and mighty
in their hearts. Virgie. They just
think that stuff goes with the Job."
"Well, he took my card and in a
few minutes he came back with It
and said thBt Mr. Stratton was too
busy to see me." And 1 burst Into
tears again.
"He never took It to Stratton," as
serted Kitty positively, with the
ihrewd Intuition born of hard exper
ience. "That is what I thought, Kitty,
but I wasn't sure. 1 ilidn't think
anybody could be as horrid as that."
"My dear, Jt's true,' assured Kitty.
Then she added reflectively. "You
saw a bit of human nature in the
raw. The beginner in every line of
work has to depend upon the mood of
someone who is full of prejudice in
stead of understanding. ThiB is es
pecially true in the movies. My
mother often told me that, she wait
ed .and waited in the outer office of
theatrical managers while the office
boy read Kick Carter and looked at
her superciliously."
"Was your mother an actress, Kit
ty?" "Yes."
"So was mine," I told her, and in
the mutual understanding born of
this fact wo put our arms nround
each other's necks in a little, tight
embrace.
"And now," Kitty said, after a mo
ment," your mother's slaughter and
mine are going through the same
heart-breaking Incidents while the
casting directors decide whether they
will draw the attention of tho direc
tor to us or hand the plum to some
one else who pleases their fancy at
the moment. Isn't it awful that our
whole future Is iu the hands of some
one who knows nothing about us and
caros less? Hut wo are neither down
nor out with Mr. Stratton yet. Wait,
I'll try and telephone him."
"No, don't do that. I would rather
write him."
Between us, we concocted what we
thought was something very polite
and yet to the point. Our Joint pro
duction read:
"Dear Mr. Stratton: I am very sor
ry that you were too busy to see me
when I called today.
"Will you please let me know Im
mediately if you have the opening
you thought you would have in your
picture, for me. If you have not, it
is urgent that I look elsewhere.
"The flowers have been coming
regularly and have helped to make
my illness bearable.
"Sincerely yours,
"VIRGINIA WINSTON."
