PAGE EIGHT MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, MONDAY, JUNE 8, 1942. Chapter 23 Jiut Tbank Yoa irtTmrrv mde herself rela. Sha made herself mile. But she began to experience hard-to-explaiq aense of uneasiness even fear. She didn't want to have Paul kisi her again, nor did he want to kiss him. All she wanted, now was chance to prove to Joe and Uncle Frank that she had real ability. Yet the had tenia enough to know that the was more or less committed to Paul; that the would have to accept his romantic attentions from now on, anyway until the had rehearsed and played the part she had been wanting so long. "Say something, loveliness," Paul said. "What shall I say, Paul? Unless It's Just the two words 'thank you. Paul leaned forward and ca ressed her cheek. "How wonder ful life would be," he said, "if we could just go on like this drift ing In the moonlight." Again words failed Kathleen. The only thing she could possibly say was that she thought drifting in the moonlight forever would be decidedly dull. But saying auch a thing would never do. Not when Paul Fennell was in such a romantic mood and was, so to peak, holding her future in the very palm of his hand. Play Reading THE next day Lizzie served what Paul chose to call "bruncheon." "Whufs that?" Lizzie asked. eyeing nim auspiciously. ' "A combination breakfast and luncheon, my dear Ethiopian maiaen, smuea r-aui. "tuen you-au had got up earlier," Lizzie said, not caring whether she offend-d the man or not, "we'd have had lunch sepa rate. That will do, Lizzie, laid Kathleen. - Lizzie went out, slowing up as ine passed joe. ana giving nim a look that was full of pleading. Coffee eggs country sausages hot biscuits homemade pre serves. "And me thinking I'd never want another bite to eat," said Daisy, accepting a second helping of sausages. "It's the country air, my child," aid Uncla Frank. "Don't you eat too much, Kath leen," Paul said. "Now tnat you're to join our company, you mustn't lose your slimness." "Is it all settled?" asked Joe. "AH settled." stiid Paul. "Of course," said Ruby. "Hun fat the tcript of your play, Joe. d better start reading before Daisy and Paul come to blows." Then when Joe had gone into the house, ehe spoke to Kathleen. "Don't forget you're to read aloud the part Paul's going to give you." "I haven't forgotten," said Kathleen, "only well, Paul said he'd rather I wouldn't." "Why not, for Pete'i sake?" laid Daisy. "I'll answer that," tald Paul. "Kathleen's a find of mine, and X don't want her reading the part until I've heard her do it, and " "You mean you've promised her the part without first hearing her read it?" said Uncle Frank. "Yes," said Paul "I'm trusting my instinct. I've been with Kath leen enough to realize she's just the type the play requires for that part' 'Then why not let us share .your discovery?" said Ruby. "You can share it when re hearsal ttarts," said Paul. "I want to direct her in it, and then " "I thought I was the director," Tred cut in. "Very well, I mean I want to coach her in it." said Paul. Joe returned with the manu script of his own play, and hand ed it to Ruby.

Inspector Earl Cuihing (right), aorred the warrant ft beautifully typed, Joe Ruby. "If it's half as good ad as its typing, it's a masterpiece." She looked around at the others. "All right, you folks, get settled. I don't want any interruptions." "Yes, teacher," said Daisy. "Maybe you missed your calling. Ruby." "Maybe I did." said Ruby. "Anyway, it would be nice to be a school teacher for awhile just long enough to chastise some of my particularly offensive pupils." "Meaning me?" said Daisy. "If the cap fits wear it," Ruby retorted. "Go on with the reading," said Fred. "Before you and Daisy come to blows!" Ruby opened the manuscript, and, began to read. It was a light Play almost too light. Uncle Frank began to think and it concerned people like those in Linville, the leading character being a lovely girl who "gets religion" at a tabernacle re vival In the play, Joe had tried to show how the girl had been moved by emotionalism rather than real sincerity, and how, as a result, she found herself badly confused. She kept trying to im prove on the lives of others. while not understanding just what was wrong with her own. Yet, out of the chaos, she emerged a much belter person, with a clearer understanding of people as a whole. Ruby turned the last page. "Curtain!" the said, finally. I Paul't Letter FOR a moment no one spoke. They Just sat In complete si- lence. Kathleen thought it was like when the curtain falls on a play that has been so moving that the audience, spellbound, forgets to applaud. "Well." said Fred DeMille, "do you think you could do it. Ruby?" "Yes," said Ruby. "I think I could." "Lota of rewriting needed, though," taid Paul. "Naturally," taid Ruby. She looked at Joe, and smiled. "But Kaufman and Ferber have to do that. . . ." Joe ttudied her face. "Thanks a lot for reading It. Ruby," he said simply. "It's pretty bad in places, I know a lot of cliches and dull stretches where I tried to bridge over between more important scene!." "Don't let that bother you, Joe." Ruby said. "No," said Uncle Frank "I heard somewhere that plays are not written, but rewritten. Ruby patted the manuscript "I'm going to hold on to it for a while.- Joe," she said "It needs a lot of thought. Later we'll discuss it In private." "1 thought It sounded pretty food in spots," said Daisy "Only think the character 'Dolly' ought to be built up. There's too much of the lead, and not enough of 'Dolly'." "Meaning, of course," said Paul, "that you want to play 'Dolly'." "I visualized myself in the role, yes," said Daisy. She moved even closer to Joe. And I've got some ideas about the part I'm going to talk them over with Joe in private." Fred shrugged. "Well," he taid, "with Ruby working on her part and you working on the part you want and both of you working on Joe, something ought to ma terialize." "I thought it was adorable!" said Mrs. Buxton. "It would be wonderful, Ruby, if you got the play produced on Broadway." "Yes." said Paul. "All you Lin ville people could chater a train and come up for the opening like when Marion Tallcy made her debut at the Met." "Let's talk about something else," said Joe. Paul looked at . his watch. "You'll have to excuse me now." he said. "I must run into town," To be continued held today for the Rev. Jacob Odell, 76, retired Methodist min ister. He held pastorates at Salem and The Dalles, Oregon. "J 7! fatii.- x '4 z., . xh?s I ' 4 ' . I "If On the Radio Chains TATIOXl Cbala affiliation ana when toe? are on ibo dial!
