listlessly; it was a message to the,

ident of the company, and under
Mr. Hirsch in New York its ex
ecutive head, desired to see her
at once.
" "WJiat's the excitement, Jim

down the. long, hall-which led . to
the other wing pf the building.
"Search me," the boy grinned.
"Mr. Sollberg must 'a' forgot to

girl could possibly resist the com

security he had to offer her, had
gone back by no means discour

Sydney Harmon a keen admirer
of Sylvia's charms only served to
whet his own eagerness, to stim
ulate his own admiration. Com
petition acted as a spur. Sylvia
could not have arranged matters
better har she tried. His last
words were characteristic of "him:

Should she suggest an Increase in

going to be let ou? The . latter
seemed unlikely, so long as Paul
Lamar -liked her work. And dur
ing the tests of the "Miricle" pic
ture he had gone out of his way
to compliment her.
It was not until she stood at
tihe threshold ,of Mr. Sollberg's
office that she realized that
something more important than
the renewal of a contract de
manded her presence. Mr. Soll
berg, tipped back in his chair, the
invariable unlighte'd cigar be
tween his teeth, was regarding
her quizzically. And with him
were not only Paul Lamar him
self, but Allen Somerville, the In
ternational's chief publicity di
rector, and the studio manager,
Mr. Kling. They all stared at
her in.sO curious a way that Syl

Sylvia gasped out something.
she never knew what. A great
lump seemed suddenly, to gather
in her throat and unaccountable
tears gathered in her eyes, slipped
down her cheeks" like lost pearlsr
Paul Lamar snapped off his eje-
classes and came over t6 her
smiling.
"I'm! not a bit ' surprised,-Sylvia,"

greatness wih her: to suggest
that she, with all her inexperi
ence, could work not only under
him bu with him. Coming from
one of the really big men of the
screen it was infinitely flattering.
She grasped his hand, her cheeks
like June roses.

whispered, "I fell I could do
