one side, eyes rolling wide and white teeth shining in an all-embracing grin. By this time not only was Ames’ private cameraman in action, but there came the clicking of a dozen other cameras as the ship reporters gathered around. Here was a frontpage story for the late afternoon editions, mercifully breaking on a dull and profitless day. They meant to make the most of it. Lucy Lee Carter, the girl from L.xle, and her little black page boy were news! Don Ames grinned cheerfully at the newspapermen and they grinned at him. Old Don was pulling another one of his publicity stunts, but Vhat the hell— It was good stuff and the little Dixie girl was certainly easy to look at. One flash of her picture and thousands of women of all ages and colors would rush out to buy bloom-of-youth cosmetics. You had to hand it to Ames. He sure knew how to put things across. Waiting in the street outside the pier shed was an open automobile of the type usually provided for visiting royalty and other distinguished guests of the city. Scarlet banners lettered in gold: bloom-of-youth cosmetics. A radio sending forth blaring strains of the latest swing hit. A tall black chauffeur in uniform of golden brown broadcloth with scarlet facings, waiting to open the door of the lordly equipage! A huge crowd stood gaping at this astounding ensemble as Don Ames escorted his party toward the waiting car. Once more the battery of cameras got ready to go into action. The giant chauffeur threw open the door with a flourish and Lu«y Lee stepped inside. The little page boy climbed into the seat next to the driver, sitting very straight, with arms folded across his swelling chest. Mr. and Mrs. Carter and Juddy took seats in the taxi which stood next to the car into which Don Ames now followed Lucy Lee. “Stand up. Take a bow,” whispered Ames. “Wave your hand at the customers on the sidewalk. Attagirl. Fine. Throw ’em a rose and see them scramble for it. Didn’t I tell you? Old stuff—but it always gets across. Hear them shouting?” The cars proceeded slowly up the crowded streets of downtown New York, stared at, followed, even cheered. Urged on by the whispers of the publicity man, Lucy Lee bowed and smiled and waved her hand in response to the crowds. Her first nervous shrinking soon passed and before long she was smiling naturally, with lips which had ceased to feel stiff and cold. "How do they know who I am?” she asked naHely. after tossing a rosebud toward a knot of people waiting at a corner for the traffic signal, and receiving smiles and a few mild cheers. “They don’t,” Ames answered. “You’re just something new for ’em to stare at. These New York dopes will fall for anything that gives ’em some exercise, stretching their necks.” He glanced backward at the following taxi. “Migosh, get a load of Mrs. Carter, will you? She’s taking a bow too—and is she terrific!” Thus Lucy Lee. with her American Beauty roses, her turbaned page boy and uniformed chauffeur, passed through the New York streeta on the way to the train which

i should take her to Atlantic City. ; And the journey marked a definite step in her development. ’ “Wait tiU we get to Atlantic City. . : Lucy Lee,” Ames told her. “Gotta i big reception worked up for you i there. Gonna knock their eye out! • Look. Here’s some clippings you i might like to see. Swell story, isn’t i it? This will give you a rough idea '■ of what’s coming.” For the first time, Lucy Lee saw i her picture in the public prints. It ' gave her a queer feeling and it seemed very strange to be reading ; these things about herself. But be--1 fore she had finished, a small • pleased smile was lifting the corners ; ot her mouth. “May I keep these?” she asked. > It was these clippings which : Clyde Dixon received several days 1 later on a hot June afternoon in I Carterton. Enclosed was a short note from > Lucy Lee. “These are the pictures r I wrote you about from the boat Will send you some more soon, of > our arrival in New York. Love. ! Lucy Lee.” He was looking at the picture# I Lucy Lee and feeling that she had s gone from him into an alien world, t as surely as though she were on an- ! other planet. This girl self-con- » sciously smiling at him from the ’ deck of a ship was not the same as i the girl who in a moon-drenched i garden had promised that nothing should change her. There was something new in the expression of her lovely face. He couldn’t analyze nor explain it but he felt that in some ■ subtle way Lucy Lee was different ’ When in Atlantic City Don Ames , always stayed at the Grand Plaza , Hotel and usually breakfasted in , the men’s grill. This morning the first person he noticed as he entered was Neville Preston, seated in a side j booth, his face partially obscured by ( the newspaper he was reading. It ' was at least three years since he had last seen old Neville, but there could be no mistaking that higharched, aristocratic nose, that romantic sweep of dark hair above a broad, well-shaped brow. Preston had always been God's perfect gift to women! The publicity man slid into the opposite seat and Preston glanced up over the edge of his paper with annoyance. , “Well, I'm damned. If it isn’t Donald P. Ames, in person. I might have known nobody else on God's green footstool would have the nerve!” “Boy, howdy,” Ames grinned. “Yeah, it’s me. How’s tricks?” Neville Preston’s frown changed to a smile. “You publicity hounds. The world's greatest pests since yellow fever and smallpox were conquered! What are you doing here? Atlantic City looked fairly good to me—up to now," he finished with a well-simulated groan of despair. “You actors,” Ames retorted. “I’d like to know how for any of you hams would get without us. We | force you down the public's throat and make ’em like it. And all the thanks we get is a lot of kicks and curses.” He thrust a hand across the narrow table. “Put ’er there, old pain-in-the-neck.” They exchanged the solid grip of two men who like each other.
