Chapter 18 ABOUT JANICE YflSS JANICE KENT, despite her unquestionable beauty, her ser rants, her two fan-writers and that much photographed black-and-gold motor, was somewhat a creature of circumstance. Her public, had It been told of this fact, would have agreed that It was most pleasant cir cumstance Indeed. However, Miss Janice mlirht have, but didn't, In form It differently. When stills were published show ing her In breakfast-nook aprons, holding a dish-rag gingerly but with good humored bravado, one was apt to say, with Indulgent superiority "With those hands Pshawl She "Mr. Qrahame Is never had her hands In dishwater In her life!" The statement would have been correct only to a degree. The de gree was that of time. Not only had Janice been familiar with the fool of dishwater, but the thought of It evoked an emotion akin to the hor ror that an emancipated galloy-slave night have felt for a twenty-foot rowing oar, TT was not to be wondered, then, that Janice, having learned her profession letter perfect, made the best of the fact that she was an ac tress and a famous one. Her drawing room manners, her 'cello voice and xpresslve bands were tbe technical materials of the trade that had made her the greatest artist that worked In romantlo leads In Hollywood. It Is a little traglo, of course, that during the apprenticeship of an art ist something of the human being la deadened. A man may not be a hero to his valet, but an actress had bet ter be a heroine to her personal maid It she wishes to retain her professional standing. Miss Kent was an actress both In public and In private. She was gay. he was charming, she waa wistful, arrogant or mischievous, but never did sbe allow the venear of her tech nique to crack the smallest bit for fear that one Individual of her pub llo might spy and report that be neath tbat delectable exterior was a little girl who cried often to her elf and who usually was quite be wilderedand very often fright ened. So, while It may be said that Miss Kent waa creature of clrcum tance. It doubtless might have been more accurate and kinder to have said victim of circumstance: sh waa a representative product ot an age that psya women salaries and good ones too for value re ceived, but also rubber stamps their characters with a certain emotional artificiality. Sbe lay on ber boudoir chaise tongue staring at the blackened panes of the windows facing her garden. A street lamp's light gave a fictitious hue to a patch of lawn.

The woman began sotting articles In place upon the dresser. Janice asked languidly, "Mr. Gra hams li to arrive at nine?" "Yes, Miss Kent." Janice wondered why she had asked that question. She knew per fectly that Frank Qrahamo was to arrive at tbat time. But the bored tone of her Inquiry seemed to give her a certain reassurance. She wanted to hear the sound of his name enunciated with languid indif ference to make It sound neutral, as If by tbat device she could rob it of the power to dlBturb her. But It seemed a poor artifice; when the thought 'f Frank Grv name as a nameno matter how in differently it evoked his resonant voice, his crisp hair, that fascinat ing steel-blue glint In his eyes or that vital line of his Jaw from ear to chin, HE was arriving at nine; he was going to propose marriage to her. Sbe was both frightened and fascinated frlghtoned for fear that she would not be capable of averting the proposal, fascinated because she was unsure If she wanted to avert It. to arrive at nine?" At Myberg'a office tbat afternoon they had gathered In a group Qra hame, Wlnslow, Greene and herself. Myberg waa conducting a aort ol guarded Inquiry aa to the cause of her abduction the night before. She had studiously avoided Frank Orahame'a obvious desire to talk to h jr alone while tbe others discussed some point. She had succeeded un til the meeting broke up.' Then Frank had told her as they were leaving tbat he would call at nine that evening. Raoul Ortega had Indeed gone from Hollywood. But he left a po lite little note for lyberg telling that buslnoss In hta country bad called him away. He did not know it he would return. At any rata their plan for a picture based upon the archaeological background of the well-preserved .ulns In the Jun gle would have to be delayed indefi nitely. Myberg waa furious about this. He bad sputtered: "It la the dlckensl It Is the dooce! Already 1 ball spent thou sands In preliminary for prodooo tlon. We will go on without him. We haff Grahams now. He knows that coontry. Tsk. Tsk. Too bad. That feller Ortega fell In luff with Janice and tried to get away with soomthlng." Bjt Janice had said no. "He was not In love with me, Mr. Myberg. True, he made love to me But he did not mean It. Not that ha waa Insincere, but the latin tempera ment . . . you know, they believe a little love-making real or otherwise flatters a woman. Also, 1 don't think be waa In volved In that outrage! Oh, I know" Sbe raised ber hand to prevent Frank'a intended Interrup tion. "You say he waa In the car that followed me the nlgbt of the accident which yon think was planned. You think he made the arrangements at Central Airport for the plane that took us to Callenti. But he waen't with the men who took me from the room. He wasn't in the plane or In the car that was driving south. I'm not defending him for any reason I haven't told you. (CtT"tt.
