L ' Us PcU ihinfct. the new York venture of the Henry Palls is just not worJcino out. Tor Henry it, . she cart, neglecting his oood real estate iob in an attempt to gtt into radio, and she is turt he it fwolectino her for Maria Maon. tn radio singer from their noma town who hat taken such an in terest in Henry's career. But Lu ella doee not know what she can do, and does nothtny. Chapter IS Hp From The Boh MARIE MASON bad been right when aha aaid aha felt that there were some to be aome dell' nite development before long re tarding the radio program. May- oe it was woman a intuition, and maybe it waa just "plain old garden-variety hunch," as Henry nad expressed it; but whatever It was, Rector got in touch with Marie ine next week. "We're going to have a very im portant conference," Rector aaid. "We're planning to get things in a sort of dress re shape fa hearsaL" "Oh, thafa marvelous!" Marie exclaimed. "I'm delighted Mai' eolm." "well want to use some of Pell's songs, a comedy sketch of Aima uunam s, ana perhaps some other material," Rector continued. "Anyway, I'd like for you to get in touch with Pell, and tell him we're to gather at my office tomorrow evening. "Of course!" said Marie. "I'll telephone him at once. But when la the rehearsal? ' "We'll discuss that at the con ference." "And how about an audience, Malcolm? After all, we ought to get the reaction of someone be sides ourselves." "Yes. I know." Riwtnr uM "We'll handle all that later. Don't worry. And Marie hadn't worried. Nor had she lost any time in getting in luutu wnn nenry, ane goi him at his office, while he waa having visit from the manager of tie reauy concern. "And I think, Henry dear," she aaid, when she had explained about the conference and the rehearsal, "that we should do some rehears ing ourselves. I mean, the songs. We want to be perfect if we have to do them before an audience." "Tine!" Henry said. ."Thanks a lot for calling me about it all, Marie. , . ." "Why not come up to my place this evening? Marie suggested. "The sooner we get started, the better." "Right. Til be there Eight-thirty 11 right with you?" "Splendid. fU be looking for Henry hung up the receiver, and turned to see the manager's gaze upon him. It was a gaze that mane mm leei uncomfortable. "Sorry we were interrupted, Mr. Smithers." he said. "But it was about a little side-line I'm Inter ested in." "Yes, I know," said Mr. Smith era. "I understand that you're be coming er more or less involved with " "I bear votir oardon " Hanrv mt j- it: , . ' i. on ine aeiensive. "with radio song, or some thing of the sort" Mr. Smithers nnisnea. "Yes, sir. that's rle-ht." Henrv aaid, smiling. "I wrote some verses oown nome, and they may be sung over the air." "I See." Mr. Smithers turned n go. "We like our employees to nave noooies. r-eii, ne said as he reached the office door and turned, but we prefer them to work at tnem after hours. You can under stand that. I'm sure." "Yes. sir." said Henrr. feeling like a small boy. and hating him self for feeling that way. "But my songs hardly come iinder the heading of hobbles. I hope to make some money out of them, and " "Verv eommendahle. I'm sure." Mr. Smithers said coldly. "But the money we are caving "vou is for vour time while in vour office Please keep that in mind. And don't forget about that property in Chi eago. We mav have to send out sonone to handle It 'or us." "Very well." aid "mry, this Ir leaving off the "Sir." He frowned Mt lh Hasi .kl.k eWd behind Mr. S"Hhera "tiff ant dimtHed hack.

Disappointment II E WENT up to Marie's apart 1 ment, as she had suggested. It was but a sort of prologue to many other trip there for Marie in aisted they must rehearse alone until they were letter perfect. They did, and they were! And now everything ai all set Once more Henry Fell was on his way home from the realty of fice, and he was trving not to feel too elated. He had" some news to break to Luella, and he wanted to do it calmly. IU didn't want a scene. There had been (, i.w many of them of late; and theylTommy had said, "f thouo'it at nrit if ira brrause you irere ,m derttdnriing, aid bfcaue it wat fomfortino to hnre someone to talk fo about Marie. But now no lonprr want fo talk ohmil vane, f trant to talk about m kitchenette, remembering with 1 little ache in her heart how Henry used to barge in, calling out, "Hi, there, Where's my Woman?" Evi dently she wasn't his woman any longer. Maybe he thought her a millstone about his neck, or some thing like that. "I'm mixing your favorite salad, darling," she added. "Thanks," Henry said. "But I've got to eat In a hurry. I haven't much time." "Are you going to work again tonight?1' Luella asked. She came into the living-room, wearing an apron, and stirring the contents of a salad bowl with a large wooden spoon. "I was hoping we could do something together tonight. It's oeen days since we "I've got to aet into mv evenlne things," Henry interrupted. "We are going" rour evening things!" "Yes. And for neaven'a sake T.n. ella, don't look so horrified! I'm not going out Dhilanderine. if that's what you're thinking about." "Well, what are vou eolns to dor- Were hav ne a rehearsal of tha radio program tonight," Hen ry aaid. "It's beina given before an invited audience in one of the radio broadcasting studios, just a though it was actually on the air. only" "Isn't it terribly sudden the idea of a rehearsal?" "In a way, yes," said Henry. Although we've been nlanninff for it for several days. That's why I've had to work so hard on tha songs, I mean. But today Rector telephoned and aaid there were some big shots here from Holly woodmen who know radio val ues, so far as the entertainment angle is concerned, and so he wants to put on a show for them tonight." "But why the formal attire?" "We want to be imnreive" Henry grinned "elegant, you know, and all that." "I see. Then that means I'll have to wear my most formal gown." no, Luella. I I that is. vou'ra not going." "I'm sorry, but" "I thoueht vol! SBlH ther nra fn be an invited audience." "I did." Henry took a deep breath. "The rehearsal ia heinn Cut on before about fifty people, ut only those interested in enter tainment values. Some Broadway producers, the men from Holly, wood, and some men who are in. terested in a business way. We want to get the reaction of people like that. Understand?" Luella nodded "Ves" h nM Just that and nothing more. nenry saw her stricken look and felt a pang of sympathy min gled with one of annovance. 'Don't stand there looking like hurt child, honev" he aM Wait until the ornffram artuallv goes on the air, and then I'll take you to a broadcast" Luella Has A Plan "THAT'LL be terribly sweet ol you, I'm sure," said Luella. Ana aon t forget to buy me lollipop." What do you mean by that?" "Treat a child as a child that's wnai i mean," said Luella. "I have ceased to be a woman In your opinion." She turned and went DacK to the kitchenette. But she had lost interest in pre paring Henry's favorite salad. In fact she had lost interest In just about everything. She was low. She was resentful. She was angry. Henry was going to a re- nearsai, ana ne was getting into his formal clothes. That probably meant that Marie would be all aoned up like Mrs. Astor's horse. It probably meant that there was going to be a gay evening for Henry If not for hif wife. It was right at that moment thai a voice spoke to Luella: a voice that might have come from an. other Luella. It said: "Listen, vou. whv don't you give that husband something to think about?" "What?" asked Luella. "What, for instance?" 'Tommv Melntvre anil h Planetarium," said the voice, with emphasis. "Oh. but I couldn't do lha I" . Nonsense! . . . Mavh If tfcni husband of yours knew that Tom. my Mclntyre had poured out his love for you while the two of vou stood beneath a lot of make-believe stars and planets and things, he would stop thinking about hlmelf all the time." "Mavbe so, hut I I" "Listen. Luella B-own Pell, are vou in love w ith Tommy or on the verge of falling?" "Of course not! ... The very Idea!" "Then stop stalling. If your con science is clear, that's all that matters. You should march right in there and tell that husband of yours all about it tell him any thing. It'll do him good the self, centered, radio - songwrlting Son of a Gun!" Leulla flared at the salad bowl.
