CHAPTER XXXII Lucien was embarrassed at the unusual confidence. He cleared his throat and-wir. up to whack Stuart •>n the shoulder and say heartily: •‘l’m sure glad 'o hear it. At that, I don’t imagine you’ll run into her. Her husband is scouting around trying to rent studio space and get an organisation started to make movies. Funny thing, I told him that's where he ought to put all that excess energy of his when I met them down in New Orleans on the riverboat picture. I didn’t expect him to take me seriously, but here he is with ail bells on, making ■ noise like a motion picture executive . . . even to the extent of looking after the relatives. He’s got his brother out here to be business manager. 1 hear they’re all living in the Standring house out in Beverly.” "Is that so?” Stuart said absently. "Excuse me. I think that water’s hot now. Mind if I proceed with the ablutions, old man?” “Go ahead. You sure need it! Hl while away the time with this ancient batteret copy of 'Life.’ Julie must have left it.” “No, I’ve got an illustration in it,” Stuart said as he departed. When Stuart earn, back later, partly dressed, he carried a drawer from his bureau. lie sat down and began perplexed!j- pawing over the things in it. “I don’t believe I’ve got a whole pair of socks that match in the whole mess,” he observed. “What'd I tell you? You need a woman! La Julie used to keep you mended, didn’t she?” “After a fashion—off and on,” Stuart smiled and cocked a satirical eye at his friend. "The rising star would blaze indeed if she heard me refer to those days. I suppose.” "Rawther! We are heavily aristocratic at present. You’d get a kick out of her. Stuart. She sure knows how to pull the tom-peramen-tal stuff. Her last big flare-up it seems was caused by you—” •7? What did I do?” I “She came on the set one day—in February I think it was—and she had an awful hangover. She cried ■nd spoiled hermake-un. I sent her to her dressing room to make up all over again and then followed her to try to straighten her out. I gathered she’d been on a whale of a party to drown her sorrow ever you. And she was vitriolic about Sharlene. Swore a blue streak and hinted dark things she was going to do to her.” “What could have caused that?” Stuart wondered. "I haven’t seen her for ages. February, did you say?” “Yes. There was «omething about you and a scarf—” “Oh, I remember! I v.-ould'nt sell it to her. So she got mad at that.” “Yeah. But I judged it v.as more than that with her. Did Sharlene own the scarf one time?” “Yes.” “Then that was it. Poor Julie! How she did want to marry you, Stuart!” “She’s a lot better off as she is.” Stuart put on the pair of socks he had found that would do. Lucien wandered after him into the bedroom while he finished dressing, and stood for some time regarding the three portraits framed together of Stuart’s little sisters. The” were almost miniatures, dainty and sweet, the work of the young painter when he had first taken over the responsibility of the family. Lucien whistled tunelessly as ho looked at them and then remarked : “You ought to have kids of your own.” Stuart, fixing his tie. glanced at Lucien in astonishment. "What in heaven’s name would I do with children under foot while I was trying to work?” “They're a nuisance but - well, my kids mean more to me than anything else in my life.” “Go on,” scoffed Stuart. “Fact I don’t see ’em often I’m away a lot and they're in school. But they're my anchor, see? If it wasn’t for them I’d be a rover, a t ramp. I like my job, you know that, but the kids are the reason for my fighting and making money. It’s a great kick to plan your son's college course “And your daughter’s marriage. Yes. I’ve been through all that.” “You’d make a swell father, Stunrt, no fooling. The way you brought up these three kids—” “That was fun, all right. But I

wasn’t their father. And I really am father to these pictures I create now. . . . Paternity. . There are different ways of being a father, eh, Lucien? A man needn't just be the father of a being sprung from his seed—M'ait! That gives me »n idea!” Stuart, dressed now, faced Lucien with a new light in his eyes. "Did you ever hear of a king in India—Raj Singh—about three centuries ago, who built a marble dam in Rajputana? We saw that dam— Raj Samand. When he started it. his people were starving. He put 'em to work building the dam, so that there should never be any more famine in his kingdom. Look! I’ll paint him setting aside the Queen who has the Royal Infant in her arms—ladies of the purdah looking pleased at her discomfiture —but Raj Singh, tho father, looking out at the thousands of black men toiling with white marble blocks. Paternity—building for the future of the race—taking care of the helpless people of the present. What do you think?” “Sounds swell. Big canvas, eh; Contrasts. Black and white. Beautiful sheltered women—starving thousands. I like it!” “I’ll call it ‘Paternity,’ ” mused Stuart, “and let Abe Foreman have it.” “Oh," Lucien glanced at him quizzically as they started out. "No memories mixed up with Raj Samand, ch?” “Not in the same way,” Stuart said quietly. ♦ ♦ ♦ The erstwhile decorous hush of the Standring drawing room had now given way to strange, raucous voices issuing from behind a silver screen which was pulled down In front of the Italian marble fireplace. Kent Damerell had had a projector put in, and had hired a boy to be on hand at all times to run it. He had motion pictures, old and new, sent out from the exchanges, and he and his brother. Leigh, and the “yes-men” he had already put on salary looked at them ail day and often at night. Watching the trend of the stories, checking on the ones the public liked, selecting and tabulating impressions of actors, listening to well-trained writers and directors and technicians—dissatisfied or unemployed. It was a colossal job Kent had undertaken. But to him it was not a job, it was the most exciting game he had ever played. The harder the odds against him, the keener the zest. He took a robust delight in counteracting hostile moves of the long-entrenched magnates who did not welcome a newcomer to the feast. However, Kent’s money opened doors everywhere. Hz was entering the game at the psychological time, the time of fear and depression and low prices. The mimic world was eager to serve the man with the moneybags and no overhead. Sharlene was often dragged in to sec some picture or listen to a new scheme, but more often by Leigh than bv Kent. Kent forgot everything but the game, while Leigh was forever remembering that someone’s feelings might be hurt by neglect. Not that Sharlene would have felt neglected. The new game which so entranced her husband smelled to her of politics and intrigue. rather than clean sport, and she said as much to Kent. "I have to use their tactics to get in," he retorted, “but after I’m in and have my releases set, I can have all the fun making pictures that Lucien Morrow talks about. Only, I'm going to be a director myself as well as producer before I'm through with it. That’s where the fun really is.” “But Kent, directing takes a particular talent and training. How do you know you’re fitted for it? You've never followed the theater—” “Tiki bad.” laughed who had come up while she was speaking. “He knows every stage door in New York!” “Oh, you can't make me believe Kent ever cared about chorus girls,” said Sharlene serenely. “Didn’t he?" grinned Leigh. "The one little affair of ‘Beautiful Anne’ cost—,” “Cut it out!” interrupted Kent sharply, glancing at Sharlene. “Sure!” Leigh agreed hastily. “I was just kidding to see if I could make Sharlene Jsakms.”

Life for her’s i ali brer and skittles.” Well.” said Sharlene musingly, i' "she makes good beer—if you like i i beer.” ‘ | “What’s the idea of saying • '.thing like that?” demanded Kent ■ j irritably. ;. “But it’s true!” She looked up at him with a fond teasing light in her ’ gold-flecked eyes. ’ “I suppose you're trying to say ' she isn’t Browning and old port—nor yet champagne and the Rita—- , that’s she’s common—” ; “No, you’re saying that!” remonstrated Sharlene quickly. “I i didn't mean to be catty, really. I • had my mind on—l guess I was j trying to be humorous—out of turn. • 1 Sorry.” “We!!, anyway,” Kent said be! ligorently to his brother, "this giri'3 acquired enough polish to suit millions of fans! Now, look. The Company has taken up the last option on her contract. When the year’s up, nhe can say what she wants to do. They’ll want her again, but if we get in with a bettor offer ahead, and help her to make up her mind to join us—” He paused and smiled brilliantly at them. “It’ll take a lot of dough,” remarked Leigh pessimistically. “If the bidding for her starts—there’s no end.” “It does seem risky,” Sharlene . put in hesitantly, “to splurge like that—on one artist. Times like these—it scares me when I know I'm losing money every day. Even though I believe the depression will . pass—” “Don't croak,” advised Kent. “i ou haven’t lost so much. Besides, it’s my money I’m investing in this, so well begin the campaign to get De Yore nght away, she'll fall for the social thing long before I even hint at a contract I want you to nave her here to a bij?. bang-up, important dinner, Sharlene—” “Oh, Kent!” she protested, taken abaek. “I couldn’t—” “Don't be so snooty.” "D Isn’t that, but—but-” She caught his eye and gave in weakly as she always did to him. “WeM , wywsy, let's wait till Mother arrives to help us put it over.” i Kent himself made out the list of dinner guests, selecting the so “la ly elect, purposely leaving out, . any other motion picture people except Lucien Morrow, whom Sharlenc wanted. He planned to impress, Julie, to catch her fam-v, to gain her confidence. He guessed that she would be ambitious for a brilliant social future with no less than a prince for a husband, and was probably grooming herself for I it already. (To Be Coitin uc d)
