That's the question which has stirred a nation-wide controversy. Although Miss West vigorously denies it and asserts that she was a mere schoolgirl in 1911. tho<e who believe “she took a chance” point to a marriage license issued in 1911 in Milwaukee to Frank Wallace and Mae West and produced a picture of Miss West in 1911. indicating that she was at least a post-graduate student.

SYNOPSIS Leaving Hawaii shortly after her father's death, young and beautiful Fanchon Meredith goes to San Francisco, where she meets and loves a handsome man named Tony. Fanchon is shocked to learn that Tony is a racketeer, implicated in a recent murder. She, too, is now wanted. Fanchon escapes in an airplane under the name of “Smith." Evelyn Howard, whom she had met on the boat coming from Hawaii, is aboard. Evelyn is enroute to New York to live with her aunt, the wealthy Mrs. Carstairs, whom she has never met. After Fanchon confides in Evelyn, the latter treats her coolly. The plane crashes and Fanchon is the only survivor. She decides to escape Tony and the past and start life anew by masquerading as Evelyn. She requests a doctor to wire Mrs. Carstairs that “Evelyn" is safe. A wire comes from Mrs. j Carstairs saying that Collin cannot meet Fanchon. Fanchon learns Collin is Mrs. Carstairs’ only son. CHAPTER IX The train pulled in at the station. Stood, panting and throbbing. Fanchon gathered her few borrowed — and she thought, wearily, stolen, belongings together and moved with the pasengers toward the platform. Some of them looked at her curiously. All looked at her, whether curiously or kindly. One woman spoke to her, saying something breathless and hurried about . . . dreadful accident—fortunate escape . . . great interest. . . . People drew aside to let her pass, whispered among themselves. Everyone knew, then. There might be more reporters waiting The old sense of being hunted, the cold panic seized her again. She was conscious of a hysterical desire to laugh . . . long—shrilly. . . If the reporters, eager, intent and courteous, back there at that big station, sitting there in the drawing room, had known, as they questioned her. that it was not alone the "sole survivor” who answered them, who replied wearily and reluctantly but with a like courtesy, that it was not Evelyn Howard at al! but the Mystery Woman, the Gangster's Girl, who had occupied the press for some days past, what would they have said? How looked? What done? For the press had been as unhappy as the police at not finding Tony’s "broad." They had not even learned her name. For Tony, although Fanchon had not realised it' at the time, had been rather careful where he was seen with her. He had not been "seen" with her at all . . . until that one last fatal nigh). And then it had been Rosie who had upset the apple-cart. But Rosie had not known Fanchon’s name, either. Yes, the press would have been very happy to have found her. as happy, almost, as the police, for the press would have made a front page human interest story out of it which would have echoed from coast to coast. But they had questioned her as the “sole survivor" and as Mrs.’Carstairs’ niece, and had gone away, ignorant and perfectly satisfied m their ignorance. Fanchon left the train. Now she was walking up the stairs. Now she was approaching the barriers. She bit bark the desire for reckless hysterical laughter. I Tears were in her eyes. Tears of fatigue; tears of terror; es ch»»:r.g nervousness. A woman stepped forward from the crowd at the barrier and took her into her arms. "Evelyn — my de-r’" — said the woman. Her voice was vety deep—verylow. She was, Fanchon realized instantly. in a mopient of stunned amazement, the most baautifx! woman she had ever seen. Uhe ried moic than sixty years iAr a

banner. She was tall and slender, j She had great blue eyes and a clear pallor and a sweet curved mouth. Under her small hat her hair was silver white She had lovely hands. And there were tears on her cheeks to match Fanrhon’s own tears. For a brief moment Mrs. Carstairs held Fanchon away at arms length Then she exclaimed, puzzled, incredulous . . . "But you’re not Evelyn, are you . . .? not really Evelyn Howard. Y< u can’t be!” Fanchon’s heart turned over in her breast. The flush of excitement faded, and her golden skin was gray with shock. To have travelled so far upon her difficult road of deception, to have braced herself to have dared sc much and then with the first word of greeting to tare defeat! “You’re not really Evelyn Howard ~ . you can’t be .. .” this tall, bcautif::l woman had said. Thus, with the first speech between them L’anchon encountered, so the fancied, bewildered, frightened .and ashamed, shame, disgrace —perhaps worse. A mental'vision of courts, newspaper headlines, perhaps even bars wavered on the shuddering screen of her mind. She swayed back from Mrs. Carstairs . . stammering something ... a •.-tin, a mad protest. Jennie Carstairs' arm went arc-.tnd he- again, holding her in a close red comforting clasp. She said, i quick, contritely, "Dear. I’m so sorryl I didn't I mean to startie. to upset you. And after al! you’ve been through! What an old idiot J am. Come, we'H go to the cor. Let the porter take your little bag . . . Your trunk won't eerie ,'or several days, but we’ll attend to all that." i>iking, she half led Fanchon out through the station and the crowds 'o tl.v big parked car. The chauf-

Ifeur jumped down from his seat, touched his cap, took the pitiful little borrowed suitcase and opened the door. Mechanv.ally. Fanchon climbed in. It was early evening Fifth Avenue was at its best and loveliest under the slanting golden light. The car moved ahead 'moothly, powerfully. A luxurious car, beautifully fitted. Mrs. Carstairs still kept Fanchon's hand in hers. Fanchon, understanding nothing, still not comprehending the older woman's eupous greeting, felt the blood come back to her cheeks and her coid bands, in a great wave of relief. The tears, which had been so foreign to her nature until the last desperate days on the Coast, rose easily in reaction to her magnificent, strange eyes. She tried to strile at Mrs. Carstairs, realizing that, niter all. no real danger threatened her as yet, but her soft red mouth shook Mrs. Carstairs pressed the hand she held “How silly I was," she said again, apologetically. "But I couldn't believe that anything as beautiful as you could belong in nur family!" So that was it! Fanchon flushed deeply, rose over gold. Mrs. Carstairs said, softly, "What lovely coldring . . you didn't tell me . . your little letters were so stiff and funny. Dark hair, blue eyes, you said. I had only the little snapshot to go on." she looked in her flat handbag and drew out a worn little photograph . . . “see?” Fanchon looked and felt her heart constrict There they were, she and—Evelyn Howard. Fanchon herself stood at the boat rail, bareheaded, the breeze in her dark curls. She was laughing Evelyn, rather prim in a sweater suit, stood behind her.
