CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT < “When I came into this bust- i Hess,” he said, still holding her < hand, "I had a heart. I threw it out the window. For twenty years i I’ve had a main spring inside me ; that kept ticking right on the dot. I’m going to tell you something, i You are the only human being—the i only woman—that has done any- i thing to me. Internally, I mean. 1 Why do you think your path was made so smooth in the studio?” i Leni released her hand. “Please,” she whispered. “Isn’t everything l difficult enough as it is?” “It is only fair that you know.” 1 Gerstenfield continued relentlessly. “When a man feels as deeply about ; a woman as I do about you—that i man has rights that cannot be de- i nied. When 1 talk like this to you, I’m breaking down everything that I’ve built up around myself. I’m 1 like a soldier throwing away his i weapons.” He paused and Leni attempted i to speak but found her throat tight, i She stood gazing at him for I nearly a minute. Above her misty ; eyes the finely pencilled arch of her eyebrows drew together. She ' was scarcely breathing and her lips trembled a little. At the second effort she found words. “Are you trying to tell ine ... that you love me . . She looked at him in amazement and saw a man that was almost i ugly. For the first time she took stock of him in the matter of appearance. ■ He looked thin, almost ill. Under ' his exceptional eyes the skin was white and bluish. There were I’nes i in his face as though etched by < acid. Yet he was not old. Forty at I the outside, perhaps thirty-five. ; “I don't know anything about i love,” he said, harshly abrupt. ■, “I’m ungodly tired. I’ve been tired i for twenty years. There's some- i thing about you that rests me. I i don’t even feel desperate about you. t Last night when 1 saw you up there on that screen it was the big- j gest kick I ever had in my life, i Figure it out for yourself.” Slowly Leni began to forget her- i self—began to forget Lucky Cava- j naugh—as unconscious pity forth- < man showed in her face. I There was something shameful ’ and embarrassing in his plight. She had known many men and 1 seen them suffer but she had never t seen a strong man reveal his weak- i ness before. It was a sorrowful < thing to see h i s self-power melt that way. No woman ever before, ’ Leni was certain, had wrenched < such a confession from him. His | own sufficience, his overcoming of al) soft sentiment, had been his ■ proud flag flying at the masthead, i The thing for her to do. of ; course, was to push him away , rudely. That was what a true - hearted woman would be supposed to do. But even in Hollywood, women are still a prey to a weakness dating back to the beginning of the race. It began to stir in Leni’s hreast, gently and kindly and infinitely tender . . . the mysterious, overwhelming quality known as the maternal instinct. Gerstenfield stood motionlessly before her, emptied of all that he could say in words. From force of habit, he snapped up his wrist and looked at the watch upon it. Hu 'vr.il

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT FRIDAY, AUGUST 18, 1933.
mel Mountains? EXPLAINS PIG CONTROL PLAN (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) plan would lead to further trouble for the farmer unless a long-time program was developed for both corn and hog production control. The secretary said farmers, packers and commission men had agreed to stand behind the following Immediate program: The department of agriculture will buy from farmers enough light hogs and sows due to farrow to remove from 600,900,990 to 700,000,000 pounds of live pork from the fall and winter market. The total reduction may amount to 1,800,000.000 (Bl .pounds of live hogs, or 16 per cent of normal production. Wallace said such a reduction should increase hog prices 25 to 30
due back on the lot. This was the Hollywood of Herman Gerstenfield. Love ground under the heel of career. The man had actually bared his sou) and was in haste to get back to the studio. Leni looked at him with misted eyes. He was harried, driven, consumed by the relentless dominance of the studio. Twelve, sixteen, eighteen hours his working day. No wonder he was cold and harsh and arid! Every normal thing of life, she thought, has passed him by. He knew nothing of living —of love, laughter, companionship. Among all the great and good gifts of God to the world, Gerstenfield stood empty - handed and alone. . . , “You poor man!’ she said softly. He was looking around for his hat. When he spoke his words were dry, crisp and nervous. “Well, that’s settled! We’ll talk it over again sometime. Glad you’ve come to your senses. Get that fellow off your mind, and be at the studio by three o’clock sharp!” The amazing transformation left Leni stunned. The maternal instinct began to whither even as it started to bloom. Gerstenfield again was his old self, giving orders and dictating lives. When in this mood his words had the rattle of hail. Leni had the feeling that she was caught in the vortex of a whirlwind. “But I’m not going out to the studio,” she said, her head spinning. “Why should I?” “We start shooting the new picture next Monday,” Gerstenfield shot at her. “Publicity department is making new stills of you this afternoon. We’re going to have a reading of the story at five o’clock, and you’ll have to be at the wardrobe department for fittings before that. The story ain’t right yet and we’re going to’ battle it out if it takes all night.” "But I thought the story was perfect," Leni said. “Wingate told me " “We threw the whole thing in the ash can this morning. I got four brand new writers in at eleven o’clock this morning and by noon they had already run into trouble. That’s what we’re battling about. You’re a French girl on this American gunboat running up the Yangtsn river in China. It’s in a blasted mess now but we’ll get it straightened out." She heard the last of this as he war disappearing toward the curb where his chauffeur waited with the big black car. In any other walk of life the man would have been mildly insane but in this maniacal business he was rated a genius. No one thought him even eccentric, and he was reverentially imitated by a hundred lesser men. Most of these wore their hair rumpled, cultivated a burning stare and radiated weariness as though from over-work. None, however, succeeded in duplicating his brain power. When he had gone, Leni pressed her hands to her temples, hoping her head would clear. It she stayed in the pictures she would become herself, in time, as zig-zag as Gerstenfield. Life would be angular and jerky, shot through with all manner of eccentricitic: ' like those modem aaintings in the
per cent. The animals will be processed, but edible portions will be kept off lhe market. Most of the meat will be used by unemployment relief agencies. Some may be exported. A processing tax of "considerably less than a cent a pound' will bc| levied on pork to bring in about j $55,009,000 to finance the program. | About 1,990,000 sows due to furrow will be brought, and about 1. 900.000 light hogs. A bonus of $4 l>er head above the market price will be paid on the sows. Prices from six to nine and one-half cents per pound will be paid for the light Pigs. Specified processors will make the purchases for the account of the agriculture department. Processor/ will .slaughter the hogs and hold the meat for the order of the department, which will pay the processors the actual cost of turning the porkers into pork chops.
smart art shops. The far-off public, knowing nothing of the real Hollywood, could not possibly imagine the in- , credible confusion out of wh i c h | the talking pictures emerged so splendidly. The life of the studio goes on with irresistible gusto and frantic activity. Except for the janitors, everyone was a creature of temperament. It is a swarming hive in which none of the bees think in a straight ' line—and whosoever gets within j the hive falls into the bewilder- , ing rhythm as if bewitched. Eventually, and this truly is a miracle, the jig-saw puzzle takes form and becomes a thing of living beauty. None of the bees can escape and none of them wants to escape. It was the swarm-instinct that now made Leni remember the profoundly satisfying hum of activity, the beating of wings in which she had her part. Gerstenfield had reminded her that she was a part of all this. , Lucky Cavanaugh — love — had drawn her outside her orbit, but the counter-pull was terrific. It was [ stronger than she realized. But it was not stronger than love. . . . Leni pulled her mind off Gersten- I field and the studio. Her knees felt rubbery, but this was forgotten as she picked up the newspaper and, forcing herself to I calmness, finished reading the story i about Cavanaugh’s arrest. The details were scant and un- : satisfactory. A womarf, Annette Santos, had , been shot to death in his apart- | menL The police said she was ■ former sweetheart of Cavanaugh. The shooting occurred about i half past three o’clock in the morn- I ing. The woman had entered the building an hour earlier saying she had a date with Cavanaugh. The arrested man’s Filipino ser- | vant confirmed the night clerk’s story. Several witnesses had been found who said they heard Cavanaugh and the woman quarreling shortly before the shot What, if anything, Cavanaugh had told the police was not revealed in the newspaper. “So he went directly from me last night to another woman,” thought I<eni. “I cannot believe he did it deliberately. It is strange but I do not feel the slightest pang of jealousy. It is ridiculous to expect that Lucky Cavanaugh would shoot a woman. The police are idiots to arrest him.” She went into another room and got police headquarters on the telephone. Her voice was cool and practical. “Let me speak to Detective Mulrooney, please.” “Mulrooney’s not here now,” said the man at headquarters. “Who’s calling?” “Never mind,” said Leni. “I’M I call again.” She hung up the receiver. Someone was ringing the bell at the front door. The maid did not appear immediately and Leni herself walked to the front of the house. Standing on the porch., holding his hat in one hand and mopping his forehead with a handkerchief, was Mulrooney himself (To Be Continued) C<M»y r fght 1932, oy Robert lerry Shannon L-.i<r i>uted bv Kins Features Syndicate.
