Marian stopped at the door of Luring & Co., the musical comedy producers, entered and asked for the manager. t "What you want to see him about?" demanded a squint-eyed youth at the closed gate. "About work," answered Marian. "Aw, you want to see the book in' agent. You'll have to wait your turn. There's half a dozen hams waltin' to see him now." Marian dropped into a chair, and be gan studying the waiting men and women.

The other regarded her with pleasant, honest, sympathetic eyae. His genuine digrnity and quiet manner were utterly unlike the breezy Ratgenhauer. "My advice to you is to stay out of the game," he said in reply. "Keep as far from the stage as you can. If you've got a home, stick to it. If you haven't got a home, get one.

Alvord. who has been acting president for eight months during Miss Failing's absence in Europe, presided.

Burns, Mrs. Max Fleiscfcner. Mrs. Martin Winch. In her report. Mrs. William C. Alvord aid: "It is a difficult matter to carry on a business that is not a moneymaking affair. It must be borne in mind that the exchange, is a philanthropy bus fc-.ined by its subscribers and that its sole aim is to help women to help tueraselves. We charge but a small commission $n the 0Qa wj eel ajxX even with our subscription list of members we are unable to pay running expenses. So it is to the luncheon and tearoom that we look for revenue. During the year, at the request of patrons we decided to serve 50-cent dinners, but after a trial of three months we discontinued them as the returns did not justify us in continuing them. "The "publication of our Exchange cook book has been a success and as sistance and we still have several of the books on hand. "Our business for the year has re sulted In a total in sales to the amount of $16,469.55 havinig been made for our consignors, being only $21.95 less than the sales of last year. "We have paid to two of our cake consignors $1565.15 and $1841.57 re spectively: to a maker of bread and rolls. $1222.57. "We want to 'go forward, and it is only through the help and co-operation of all that this can be done." Mrs. Alvord paid tribute to Miss Thomson, manager of the exchange, to the employes and all who had taken part in the year's work. She praised the efforts and success of the various committees and spoke of the improve ment in the standard of the work con. signed, comparing it -favorably with the best in the larger cities. A letter report was read from Miss Failing, the president, who is in Rome. She said, in referring to the cook book: "Even in foreign lands, I hear words of praise for Its recipes." Mrs. Charles Scadding gave one of the most interesting reports that of the household committee. She spoke of her co-workers as "efficient, faith ful and of good judgment." and told some of the little amusing . incidents that proved the committee had many strenuous tasks to perform and had done tnem well. Mrs. W. O. Van Sehuyver reported on the high class of needle work done by the consignors and of the many women who had been helped by being able to dispose of their handiwork. Letters from consignors were eloquent with encouragement for the members to feel that the exchange is worth while. One woman spoke of the institution as "a godsend"; an other said it had been her sole sup port for years: another, a widow, had been able to send her children through high school with the money earned. As the exchange has a department in the "Made-in-Oregon" exhibit at Meier & Frank Company's store, com mittees were appointed to have charge of the sales of the cook book for the benefit of the exchange during the week. Those appointed are: For this morning, Mrs. Leon Hirsch; this after noon, Mrs. Slgmund Frank; for Wed nesday morning, Mrs. Adrian McCal man, afternoon, Mrs. - Henry Hauss man; Thursday. Mrs. W, J. Burns and Mrs. Martin Winch; Friday. Mrs. A. r . Biles and Mrs. A. B. Steinbach; Sat urday, Mrs. Charles Scadding and Mrs. H. C. Cabell.

I'm talking to you in this way . because you're different from the usual run of women who come looking for work. It's too late to talk like this to most of them. It wouldn't do any good. My honest advice to you is to get over the notion of going on with theatrical work before it s too late. "I appreciate your interest in me," said Marian, "but I ve made up my mind. I have to do something. Can you put me on?" "If you could make any sort of a stab at singing,'.' answered the agent, "I think I could use you in the chorus.

But I've got a little of mine left, thank heaven. Some day you 11 re member what I've told you, and you'll feel grateful to me. Marian saw that it was hopeless to plead her cause further. She thanked the other for the interview and leit. It was on the afternoor of her arrival in New York. Disheartened at i-er first rebuff, and mindful of the little money she had left, she hurried back to her hotel. Of one thing she was certain.
