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.

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,"
