, SYNOPSIS Lent Luneska, beautiful motion | picture star, is embarrassed at the premiere of her latest picture when her husband, Karl Kruger, whom she thought in prison, arrives and threatens to reveal his identity unless she talks with him. Lucky Cavanaugh, a gambler, prevents Kruger from making a scene and has him placed in a private office to await Leni after the show. In the next office, thieves are burglarizing the safe. Leni goes to Kruger. He demands recognition as her husband. She refuses but he says he will wait for her to reconsider. Cavanaugh, fascinated by Leni’s beauty, follows her into the box. Finding her in tears he tries to comfort her and Leni is strangelystrengthened by his hand-clasp. He takes her out for some air. Forced to confide in someone, she relates her past life: slaving in a Vienna factory . . . marriage to Kruger when only fourteen . . . beatings . . , Kruger's arrest . . . America . • . and her romantic rise to stardom. Unable to resist, Cavanaugh takes Leni in his arms and, in an unguarded moment, she allows him to kiss her. Suddenly regaining her composure, she asks him to take her back and forget about it. Cavanaugh goes to Kruger and insists that he leave, but the | latter is defiant. A fight ensues and Kruger draws a revolver. Meanwhile, the burglars are waiting for the gunfire of the battle scene on the screen inside to drown the noise of dynamiting the safe. They are much concerned over Kruger’s proximity. ... CHAPTER NINE All of them became silent again while the nervous clicking of the i watch bespoke the seconds bringing the screen play to its deafening holocaust of roaring battle. Fdjur thousand persons—most of them in evening clothes—sat in plush seats and experienced the carbon - copy emotions of real warfare. Behind the ramparts of muddy trenches a division of French infantry watched the dawn in Flan- ! ders. A heavy mist billowed before the eye, filling folds and hollows of mysterious landscape. Vaguely the twin spires of the cathedral in the distance began to take form. The men in battle-stained uniforms clutched their rifles and peered into the gray fog as they awaited the zero hour of death. Behind their backs handsome officers in natty uniforms walked up and ■ down and glanced nervously at strap watches. It was the hush before the storm. The figure of a poilu crept out of a dug-out—a strangely fragile 2nd delicate form to be engaged in ! the grim business of war. For a moment the audience thinks it is a I boy of ten or twelve, but the audiI ence is wrong. The camera angle is | shifted and it is seen that Leni Luneska has reached the front. She has deceived the entire Allied army into believing that she is a soldier of France. It is remarkable, even incredible yet it unfolds before the eye and is gladly believed. Leni has come to die with her sweetheart. He is the soldier of the handsome profile and his uniform is the best fit in the regiment. A minor miracle happens. It develops that the commander is the scoundrel who made her life very miserable in the peaceful days before the war. Her gorgeous beauty does not deceive him into believing she is a poilu. His eyes light upon ! her and immediately he knows that I she is not one of his men. He recognizes her. The zero hour is forgotten as his Gallic blood becomes molten with passion. War is war and brooks no time for petty formalities between man and woman. Before she can scream to her sweetheart she is in the officer’s grasp j i

and on the way to a convenient dug-out. 1 Leni is rescued at the crucial • moment by General Von Hinden- - burg who liberates upon the French ; army the concentrated fury of ten r thousand tons of shrapnel and 1 dynamite. 5 Vast geysers of dust spring up r and settle slowly to earth. It is an inferno of mighty concussion flingr ing debris through the smoke-laden ■ universe. Roar after roar shakes • the heavens, shot through with the ! shrill scream of flying shells. The 1 walls of the theater tremble. Con- ' versation is impossible. It is worse 1 than a boiler factory. It lasts for three entire minutes. It is epic. The • picture proceeded. I In her box, Leni watched and ’ listened. The battle roar was dying down and the audience, carried : away by emotion was contributing a machine-gun rattle of applause. This was success. They liked it. Motion pictures are valuable because they carry people out of themselves—high above the actualities of life. In some way, not quite clear to her, she knew that tonight she had helped four thousand people to escape the crass realities of their own tiresome existence. The beginning of success and its 1 end. In the midst of it she suddenly felt cold and drew her cloak tightly around her shoulders. Tonight would never come again. Her lips were dry as dust. Tomorrow her name would be soiled with scandal and next week the newspapers would be printing laudatory photographs of some 1 other new star. This was Hollywood and Leni Luneska was through with it. • But none of this affected the bur- ' glary upstairs where a steady hand ' lit a fuse that ran to a business- : like charge of nitro-glycerine. The ' three men dressed as ushers flat- 1 tened themselves out of danger 1 against a wall and waited for the 1 explosion. When it came it was like 1 a muffled cough of a giant, lost in ; the cyclone of noise that rocked the theater. The whole front of 1 the safe fell forward and struck the floor. Immediately the men were frantically busy prying open the tin I, I cash boxes.

So completely had the bombard ment on the screen disguised th« explosion of the safe that even Karl Kruger and Lucky Cavanaugh, separated from the burglary by a single wall, had not heard the safe blowing. This failure on their part, however, might have been attri- ■ buted to the fact that they were suspended together in that pregnant instant where human life trembles in the cosmic balance. Karl Kruger had a philosophy | but, neurotically, was unable tt j sustain it against the white fire o his blinding emotions. He raise, the revolver in his clutching ham to the level of Lucky Cavanaugh’: breast. Neither man breathed. The difference between them lay in the fact that Lucky Cavanaugl was able to think clearly. Without undue haste, he put a hand behinc him. His fingers touched the light switch on the wall and the next instant the room was in darkness. Ir the same moment of silent sus pense, he stepped soft-footedly U one side. “Where are you?” cried Krugei ' in a voice so loud and angry that it filled the room with hatred. The weapon in his hand belchec fire and noise. W hen it had roarec six times, Lucky Cavanaugh touched the switch and the room was light again. Kruger’s face had the look of green mud. The revolver dropped ! from his hand as a hoarse cry ! sprang from his throat. Everything | before him was a blurred haze. “Let me out of here!” he screamed. Before Cavanaugh could lav hands on him, the man made it dart, whirled and snatched open the door leading into the room where three men dressed as ushers were stuffing currency into canvas bags. One of them made a swift movement with his right hand— a hand that knew how to handle an automatic. A vicious red tongue leaped from the barrel of the weapon and pointed straight at the breast of Karl Kruger. With a slow, painful movement, Kruger rose to his toes twisted, and fell backward dead. ’ (To Be Continued)
