Copyrlrht 1917, Warner Brea, ricturee, loe. J “THE JAZZ SINGER,' atarrlng Ai Jolson. Is a Warner Sref. plcturtfp tlon of thla novel. It le hdied upon the play by Samton Repbaeleon.
SYNOPSIS Cantor Pabinotrlta has trained his ion, Jakie, to sing the Hebrew songs of the Synagogue. On the Eve of the Day of Atonement he finds Jakie singing ragtime in a “beer garden,’’ He whips the child and Jakie runs away. Ten years elapse. Jakie, now Jack Nobin, a jazz singer, down on his lurk, meets Mary Dale, a dancer, who obtains a part for him <n hrr vaudeville act. Pack «n the Xew York Ohelto his father still denounce* him, lut Jack corresponds with his mother who rightly fudges that her sun Is in Jove. Thru one day Mary hands Jack a telegram to read.
CHAPTER Vlll—Continued *' ‘New York—Miss Mary Dale— State Lake Theatre, Chicago, 111.,"’ he read. “ 'Would you consider leading role new musical show fall opening stop rehearsals begin two weeks atop wire answer. Harry Lee.'" He turned to face a happily smiling girl who could scarcely keep her feet still. “Gee, that’s a great chance for you. Mary,” he exclaimed, returuing the wire. “But I always knew you'd get it.” "I know. Isn’t It marvelous!" Mary was nervously searching for pocket book and gloves and not quite conscious of whether she was looking for anything at all or not. “Just think! That’s the opp irtunity I’ve been waiting fur ever since I began to dance. And now it's here. O, Jack. I can hardly believe it.” "How did it happen? Do you know?” Jack asked, still enthusiastic. “Well, you see, I was sent to Leo several times from a casting agen-
two-a-day singer out
"Ore, that's the chance we're all tooking for,” Jack exclaimed. cy," Mary explained, "but somehow my work never seemed to fit eny of Ms shows. Then one time he caught our act when we were playing Brooklyn, and he came back to see me, and he said then that he liked my work, and as soon as he got a show that would suit me he wanted to take a chance and put me on. He's really a frightfully nice sort of person. But I’m
so thrilled!"
‘T know, Mary. I don’t blame you. Gee, that’s the chance we're ail looking for. Have you answered
the wire yet?”
’’No, I haven't had time. It Just came in today. It was here waiting for me when I got to the theatre this afternoon, and I was so nervous I didn't know whether I was going to get through the act or not. I didn’t say anything about It then, because 1 thought that If I ever began talking about it, I'd never be able to go on.” “Have you told Berg?” “No, 1 haven't told a soul but ybu. You're the only person who knows about It. But I'll have to see Berg and see how soon I can leave and straighten all that out later. I'm going out now to answer this, because I don’t want to lose any time. I'll probably have to continue this week and then go on to New York. I want to get settled a little there before I start rehearsals. It won't give me much time If I have to start in two weeks. And I want to go up to Murl’s and pick up a few new
steps, and—”
Mary was talking on and on, but
still be a the road.
Jack caught the back of the chair, against which he had been leaning, with an unsteady hand. He had known for some time that sooner or later this break would have to come. But It never seemed so near, so palpably real. And now that It had come, he was stunned for the moment. What should he sayf What could he say? He wanted to seize Mary in his arms and carry her far, far away from stage and theatre and managers and agents, and find some nice desert island where there would be no careers to think of. But that sort of thing wasn’t done—except in story books, and this was no story—it was stern reality. He sighed longingly, and made an effort to speak. “I'll be sorry, Mary," he began, “In one way. I hate to see you go. But—but I understand what this means to you. I—We—we'll miss you a lot." Beneath the brim of her hat Mary smiled. It was a tender little smile, and one that carried a great deal of meaning if .Tack could have seen and read It aright. But Mary didn't want him to read that smile Just yet. At the proper time—then, tt would have Us use. Quickly she reached out her hand and patted Jack's arm. “I know, Jack. And I’ll miss you —you all, too,” Mary said. And there was a slight catch In her voice, but she turned quickly, and la ighed. "And after all, you'll probably be playing the East pretty
soon—”
“I hope so, Mary. And I'll certainly be waiting to see your show. I hope it goes over,” Jack tried to rise to the occasion and forget his own hurt in the happiness so newly come to the girl. “Well, that's something one can never forecast," Mary answered philosophically. "I once heard a famous actor say that If anyone could read tho public’s mind so Ur as shows were concerned all he'd have to do would be to sit down at a desk and say: 'Gentlemen, the line forms to the right.’ ” “And that's the truth,” Jack smiled. ’’But no matter what happens, Mary, you'll always know that I'll be wishing the best of luck and everything for you.” Impulsively, Jack caught Mary’s hand In his, and the two stood gazing into each other's eyes, lost to the world about them. “Mary,” Jack pressed the girl’s hands tenderly between his, "I—I want to tell you—I'll never forget that everything I am I owe to you. Everything I am—or ever
will be.”
“Thank you. Jack, for saying that,” Mary drew fier hands away slowly. “But I want you to remember this; I, nor anyone else, could ever make you what you are or will be. You have that within yourself. And you're going to come out on top, Jack. I know it. You have the ability, and you have the voice. You must carry on. tf I can do anything to help you, I’ll do It—you know that.” "You've already done so much for me. Mary,” Jack answered, hie voice trembling. "More than I can ever hope to thank you for. If It hadn't been for you—" “I only gave you a chance, and you made good.” Mary looked up at the singer with frank admiration in her eyes. "If you hadn't had It In you, you'd have flopped. Irstead, you got over. So, after all, you're the one who’s done the real work. Listen, Jack, It’s so easy to cfeate opportunities, but there are so few people who can da anything with them after they have them. And you've proved that you can. And that's more than enough thanks. So forget all about it. I've got to hurry now.” She looked at her wrist watch. “It's four o’clock, and I want to get this wire right off. See you tonight.” She founi her bag and gloves and the twE stepped out into the hallway. “All right. I have to collect Hue- | ter,” Jack walked as far as the key rack where Mary hung up her key to her dressing room. "Coming lit
early?”
"O, about seven thirty. Bye-bye,^ Mary hurried out the stage door. Jack wandered back to his dressing room and Buster with happiness and sorrow each fighting supremacy la his heart.

nor even her faith, that appealed to us most, though she possessed all these qualities. But it was her great helpfulness in emphasizing the spiritual side of life. That this is a pleasure loving, materialistic age, is adpnitted by everyone, and deplored by many’, but few there be who help us to stem the tide against it. B. Purkes Cadman said recently: ‘The most tremendous never ending struggle, which we wage from youth to age, is the one we wage against our lower self. All our struggles show that life here is a discipline which would have no meaning, did it not fit us for another higher stage of life hereafter.’ Mrs. John, both in the Bible Class and in this club, by precept and example, kept us constantly reminded of
their own early struggles. These are not new facts. Ev-Ty school boy should know them E\cty ;2S young man beginning a bus'll, car- ~ ter should be reminded of th' -se sphn SEE did examples of obstacles ov mmic. ■ —
