She was In his arms, strained to

to call out, to ask him to come back.
It simply wasn't right to have Clyde
walking out of her life forever, like
this.. Why, she. had not even asked
him about Rosemead, or anything.
And she wanted to exnlain t

'S A CHARM
by HARRIET HINSDALE
of respectable age, which was the
only horse Rosemead had boasted
during her childhood. " Now she was
on : the back of a - restive, hisrh-
spirited steed as nervously excited
as she was. - t-''
Again they came gaflonin into
the swirling sand and at the tre-
viousiy designated spot she fell and
the horse ran on. She could hear his
hoofs thudding,' feel the vibration.
But her eyes . were closed, so she
could see nothing. Preston had told
her to remain as she fell for a cer
tain length of time. When she had
mentally counted slowly up to fifty
she was gradually to revive and the
action was to proceed as rehearsed
She began to count ; ' :'.
Then she heard the dull thuddinc
of a hone's hoofs again, apparently
growing nearer instead of more dis
tant. There came a shout but the
words were indistinguishable above
the roar of the wind machines." The
sound - of - galloping hoofs grew
louderl - - - '
" Terror gripped her but she dared
not open her eyes. To do so would
ruin the scene. She tried to continue
with the counting but lost the thread
and was completely confused. Again
there came si loud shout and this
time she recognized her own name
above the storm. They were yelling
ather ...-A : ... .
She , raised quivering eyelids
slowly, as the scene had been re
hearsed but' in ' that instant fear
paralyzed her muscles and she was
snable to move. A cry froze in her
throat. Through tha cloud of sand
whipping about her prone body she
saw tha advancing legs of a horse,
with cruel iron shod feet which in
another moment must without fail
descend upon; her unprotected face 1
But suddenly a dark shadow pro
jected Itself . between her and. the
advancing horse. -'Strong hands
grasped her and sb, was thrust vio
lently, aside, rolling . several 'feet
away from where aha . had lain.
There was wild: confusion, many
shouting Voices and again the sound
of retreating hoofbeats as the horse
dashed by, swerving to one side as
he passed. ; ''""x v- ; V
I She' sat up. dazedly. The wind
machines stopped" -and the sand
storm gradually subsided. Tha en
tire group of players, cameramen
and, technicians crowded about her
and the still figure of Neville Pres
ton lying at her side. u
: "Good God, is be deadf a woman
sereamed. It was Pearl, her face
White .beneath the" saffron grease
paint. .v; "-.t:-;it:-.-
1 The assistant director was bend
ing orer the body; of his chief, touch
ing the back of the head gingerly
and bringing away fingertips dyed
red..- -.;-w'- - fe '-.-:
i "Got hit back of the' ear," he said.
"Knocked him out.' And it looks aa
though there night be a. broken arm
by the wav it lies twisted.' Here, you
men, help me carry him to his tent.
Easy now.' Did somebody catch that
damned horse 7, What in God's name
made it turn and run bade?"- tf
As they carried tha limn body of
tha director away several of the
women helped Lucy Lie to her feet,
asked if she were hurt? Now that it
was over she cried a little, the in
evitable feminine reaction to danger
pissed. No, she was not hurt a bit
But what about Mr. Preston? "
One of the cameramen was a first
aid expert and he brought the camp
medicine kit into use.' The injured
director was given a stiff dose of
whiskey, the scalp "wound" dressed
and his sprained left arm compe
tently bandaged. He emerged from
the tent pale and. shaky but deter
mined to finish the scene. The pic
ture's time schedule called this the
last day on location and he meant to
carry it throughr '"

and Don Ames made the most of it

Starting that evening the caravan
of passenger ears, sound wagons and
motor trucks carrying, supplies '
drove all night and reached Holly

ty. Thus demonstrating again the
editorial reliance on the pulling
power of those two magnetic words :
"beauty" and "director." Either
one was worthy of a story. To
gether, they rated banner bead
lines. ' ;
Several of the company stopped
at Sardi's for coffee and Ames made
his entrance into ' the restaurant
with a sheaf of newspapers under
one arm and waving another jubi
lantly in the air. . ?
"Talk about your swell stories,"
he exulted. "Look at this, Preston.
Just cast your glimmers over that
Lucy Lee." He- pointed to the
screaming headlines! "Isn't that
a break? About a million dollars
worth of publicity for you two, and
before breakfast too.: What I mean
is that's a break 1"
Lucy Lee looked not at the head-,
lines but toward Neville Preston,';
more interesting than ever because
of his pallor and with an arm in a
black silk sling. He was every inch
the romantic . hero of - any girl's
dreams even to the white, loose
collared shirt open at the throat
Small wonder her. face: was deli
cately flushed, hereyes starry with
worship. -: - j-.
"I X haven't been able to tell you
how wonderful I think it. was,? she
said softly. "I would probably have
been kiUeLif. it .hadn't, been for.
you." .She laid .her hand ever so
gently on his bandaged arm. . "But
I am so sorry about this. I do hope
it doesn't hurt very "much-
. "Even if it did, I shouldn't mind
when you look at ma like that," re
plied Preston with a gallant smile.
Pearl was reading one of tha Sto
ries and apparently paying no atten
tion to tha others at tha table. But.
Ames saw her lips twitch and tha..
white teeth clamp viciously down.
There was a sudden frown which
passed rapidly as a ligbtning flash
before she spoke.- ' 'i
see this paper bints. that you,
two ara 'that way about each
other," aha rentat-M, then turned
tha blue steel of her eyes on thepressr
agent "Another one of your hot
publicity gags, I suppose Don. Lucy
Lee, take your hand off of Neville's.
Don't you: know better than that tn

watching? : Do you want to start a

Preston laughed but there was a
resentful quality ia : tha glance he
sent back to Pearl. If Nice of you t

Pearl, ha retorted, "but I believe
you're, - worrying . unnecessarily.
Nothing scandalous in holding

smilingly patted the one he held. -
' For an instant it appeared likely
that Pearl was about to fly into one
of her rages and Lucy Lee stared in
amazement Of late her stepmother's
amiability had been so consistent
except for her annoyance over the
appearance of Clyde Dixon. Yet
now she was angry over a thing of
no real importance at all.
, v But the threatened storm passed
aa quickly as it had come. Pearl-'

Lucy Lee. . "Maybe it was silly of
