LETTER FROM JOHN ALDEN PftEMOTT TO SYDNEY CARTON My God, Syd, it’s true! I went to see that picture of Perier’s last week and she had spread the whole story there. There is no use of my crying "Peccavi.” for every one in Albany today knows that I have sinned, a* least every' one but Leslie. Naturally I don’t wish Leslie any bad luck,-but I was rather relieved last week when she was too ill to see the picture, but someone is sure to tell her about it if they haven’t yet. Then it will be all off with your3 truly. Every one of the boys have come around and behind their hands told me about the picture, until I plucked up courage and went to see It myself. The whole story is told, Syd, and the last fadeout shows the mother and father of the adopted child leaning over the sleeping babe while a weeping woman kneels beside an empty crib. It certainly is a mess. She is piling It on, Syd. In the picture, if you have not seen it I must tell you, the girl hands back all the letters but one and I am willing to bet my life that is just exactly what Perier did. She has not only got a business head but she is hard as nails. Otherwise she never would have told this story on the screen. However, she has done one thing. Syd. which she may regret. Now that I know that child is mine I’ll keep it until hell freezes over. You have said you think she wants it back. She will never get it as long as he lives, if I can help it, and I don’t think Leslie would give It up either, even if she knew. I wish. Syd. that you would wmite to Perier and ask her if the picture is her story. You can do this and she probably will tell you. Sometime* I think that she has allowed this author to write this story so that Leslie, seeing it, will give up the baby. But I car. tell her one thing. She doesn’t know as well as I do. Although I am not going to tell my wife until I have to. I am just as sure as I am writing this to you, that Leslie will keep that baby under any circumstances. She might not forgive me. but that won’t make any difference in her feelings toward the child. Leslie has a great sense of justice and she will know that the boy is not to blame. Funny old world, isn’t it, Syd? Who would have thought that Paula Perier would become a great moving picture actress? And yet I guess she always had it in her. God knows she had temperament enough as well as temper. and she was clever always and. very beautiful. I Was very fond of her. Syd, and had I never met Lfeslie, possibly I might have —oh, what’s the use of wondering what you would do if Circumstances had not turned out as they did. I haven’t been able to eat anything for a week. Every time I think of that damned picture I get so ashamed that I am almost nauseated. The times are changing, Syd, although most men have not found it out yet. We are going to suffer for our mis-

deed#" in the future, instead of the women. My case proves it to me for all time. Ware! Low bridge, old fellow, if you do not want to get your head smashed. All of Albany is talking about me. I walk along the street and see people whispering to each other and I hear my name. I want to hide my head but I cannot. And out there in Hollywood, Paula Perier is hailed as the coming great actress of the screen. I saw a paragraph the other day where she was said to be drawing down five thousand dollars a week with the sure prophecy that it will be more before the year is out.
