Work in City Recalled bv w Mrs. Talbot Musical Teacher Now in New York Remembers May Festival. New York. April 14. 1935. j Dear Beatrice Burgan: I called on Mrs. Ona B. Talbot last week. She is living at the Wellington Hotel, W. 55th-st ana Broadway. ‘T loved Indianapolis,” she said, when I introduced myself. “The first work I ever did was in that ! town, for the May Music Festivals Theodore Thomas was with me.” I followed her into the bright, neat little apartment, which she had made hers by hanging up one of the first oil portraits her daughter, Myra Reynolds Richards, painted. putting a couple of bronze candlesticks on the bureau and tacking some strip of embroidery on the wall. ‘ I don t know what I'm going to do. or how long I'm going to be here," she said, as we sat down. “My grandson, Wallace Richards, is in Washington. If you can ever tell me what governmental department he works in. you have a hotter knowledge of the alphabet than I do. All I know is that he isn't in the NRA ” Mrs. Talbot's daughter died recently. In addition to Mrs. Richards’ work as a painter, she achieved much distinction as a sculptor. “We lived in Paris for five years!” Mrs. Talbot said. “Myra was sick when we returned to America last year!” The studio they had in Paris was just off the Rue Vaugirard. "Overlooking a tabnc shop 500 year old!” said Mrs. Talbot. “France is fascinating! My friends want me to come' back. But I think there is such a thing as staying away too long from home! This country is mv home!” She leaned forward, her thin form at an eager angle. “Out in the West, we still have a semblance of Americanism. That is where we have to look for talent. We need a leader from the United States in music. Well find him in the West!” Among the famous European musicians Mrs. Talbot has handled In this country are Schumann-Heink, lalllan Nortiica, and Paderewski. “I look him on tour to Indianapolis, Dayton, Toledo, Springfield, Louisville and Nashville,” she said. “When Charles Ellis. Paderewski's manager, —we called him The Prince’—wired me from Boston, if I would go on to Nashville with Paderewski. I telegraphed bark Yes, to Africa.' ” Rachmaninoff. Walter Damroseh, dr Pachman. Sembrich. Caruso and "Melba also appeared at the Ona B. Talbot concerts. “Indianapolis needed a good confcrrt hall,” she said. “Cincinnati had the one Mr. Singer gave. His hall made Cincinnati the great music center of the country!” “Do you think you'll ever go back to Indianapolis?” I asked. “I don't know,” Mrs. Talbot Sighed. “It's a beautiful place. But things have changed. I went there when a picket fence hedged in UniYersitv Park, and the Circle was ©pen ground!” , Just now Mrs. Talbot Is interested ftp producing a Negro opera. “I have ©ne in mind,” she said, "written by Cameron White. If Otto Kahn liadn’t pased away, he would have fiad 'Ouanga' put on!" There are Congo dances and Haitian folk-lore songs in the story. “Roaul Laparra, the French comJ>oser. thought it a great piece." Mrs. Talbot said. “I first heard it at his studio.” I think Mrs. Talbot njight be glad to hear from some of her Indianapolis friends. I hope they write her. Perhaps they do. Faithfully yours. HELEN WORDEN.

Bart is there, toe, as Irene had expected She evade* ctnversatlon with him. but while Stephen and Peggv get their wraps, Irene and Bart are left alone. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER TEN THE glance which parsed between the doctor and Irene when they were left alone was long and full of questions. So many times in the old hospital days they had been forced to conceal their infatuation, it was comparatively easy now to let their eyes say words they dared not speak. And both had long been adept in reading the other's expression. Irene's was cold and bright and hard. The man's self-consdious, uncomfortable, and conciliatory. He said uneasily. “It’s chilly this evening.” “Yes. isn’t It?” Irene answered. Turning to a pile of small leatherbound books on the table she selected one and began to flip through the pages. “How’s everything at the hospital?” she inquired politely. “Same as usual. I heard you were out there the other day.” “Yes, I ran in for a moment ” “It's funny.” he said, attempting to be faceteious and failing, “that you wouldn't look up your old friends.” “Oh. I did! 1 saw Pete and Mary Price and Charlie Robinson.” Bart's eyes were like magnets, drawing her towards him. Another moment and, forgetting everything she would be in his arms. "I should have liked to see you, too.” he said. Then suddenly Steve and Peggy were back in the room. Wrapped in an elaborately fur trimmed coat much too old for her, Peggy lifted her pouting, heavily made up mouth to the doctor, murmuring, “You haven’t kissed me tonight.” "She hasn't the finesse of a rabbit.” Irene thought bitterly as her former fiance laughed, “I prefer to do my kissing in private.” Nevertheless he stooped to bestow the requested caress. It was the lightest, most casual of kisses but Irene winced. If there was going to be much of that, she'd not be able to stand it, she told herself wildly. Meanwhile, Stephen, happily unconscious of unuei currents, lifted Irene into the front seat of his car. “How about going out to Shorty Roberts?” “Won't it be too crowded?” Bart, ! objected. “Not in the inside room. They’ve opened a clever new place where only the elect are admitted.” Arrived at the night club, Stephen was gretted deferentially and conducted through the main room to another decorated with palms. A fire blazed in the huge fireplace at the far end of the room from the

mantel of which hung red and green ships' lanterns. A graceful girl In a grass skirt was dancing to the music o' a guitar played by a sulky half naked native, a bar ran the length of the room and over a grill in the fireplace a white capped chef was cooking ham and eggs. a a a STEPHEN ordered drinks and asked Irene to dance. He danced easily but without Bart's grace. Steve danced like a football player with a kind of athletic rhythm, but to dance with Bart was like the soaring of twin flames. Irene wondered if Peggy felt that way about dancing with him, too. If so, she gave no sign of it. “What's the matter with you, Peggy.” Steve asked, as the other two sat down. “This place Is the bunk. I want to go some place exciting.” “My little sister doesn't sem to appreciate the hot spots of her home town.” “You should see some of the night clubs in New York,” Peggy said, brightening. “Just how many of them did you see?” her brother inquired, laughing. “Plenty! I was in New- York for almost a week. We went to the Cotten Club, the Ha Ha Club and another perfectly terrible one in Harlem.” Bart was looking at Irene as if he hadn’t even heard. “Dance with me?” he murmured. Although she had her refusal all ready she heard herself saying, “Os course ” and found herself in his arms His embrace was as politely circumspect as if they had been strangers. It was true that they were in plain view of Peggy and Steve who were sitting at the table but even so, thought the girl, he might have done something, whispered something. But there was no subtle tightening of his arm. no clinging to her hand. Nothing. Even when the lights were lowered and the music changed to a naunting melody they used to dance to a year ago Bart made no sign. When it was over, he applauded with the correct degree of enthusiasm and they sat down. So then it was really finished? All that wild, sweet ecstasy which had brought them together! Irene lifted her glass and drank, thinking, “If I could only go home! J I never want to see him again.” i But Stephen was holding out his arms with such unsuspecting eagerness that she felt sorry for him. With a smile on her lips and slow j inward tears dripping in her heart, she rose. The next time Bart asked her n dance, she refused, saying she was tired. “How about you, Peggy?” Sieve inquired. “Oh, we may as well dance it. I might as well be dancing as sitting here,” she answered impatiently. “If ever there was a spoiled brat” Irene thought viciously. But Bart didn’t seem to notice that, either. He rose as the other two left and seated himself closer to Irene. “Why can’t we be friends?” he asked earnestly. | “Aren’t we?” i “You know we aren’t. This sit-

uation Is going to be an impossible one, unless ” "Unless what?” Her heart stood still as beneath the table he seized her hand. “Oh, darling! Darling!” he whispered. All the cruel weeks that had intervened since her graduation seemed to melt away and she was completely under his spell again. Then her eyes fell upon the awkward figure of Peggy Reagan dancing with her brother. “Better let sleeping dogs lie. Bart,” she said coldly, and drew her hand away. a a a BUT no matter how clever her pretense of indifference he had succeeded in shattering her newlywon peace of mind. Self-centered and overly-ombitious he might be, but she loved him. And she belonged at his side helping him. not pulling him down as Peggy would. Was the man blind? Were they all blind not to see the hazards connected with such a marriage? Peggy Reagan was a dissatisfied sensation hunting boarding school product. Overdeveloped physically bur with her mind and emotions left far behind. How far could Bart go, or any other man for that matter, tied to a fretful complaining child? It was criminal. Someone ought to stop it, Irene decided on the way home. When Stephen paused at the hospital to leave the interne it was all she could do not to run after him This was where they both belonged.

Here in their own little world of suffering and bereavement and unbelievable joy and sometimes miraculous cures. She longed to cry, “Oh. Bart, please take me with you,” but said nothing as he kissed Peggy and told the other two goodnight. When he had gone, Peggy curled up on the back seat and went to sleep. When Stephen wakened her at their home on the way to the ferry, she stretched and yawned like a cat. “What's the idea?” she grumbled. "Get out, darling! I’m going to take Miss Gardner home now and were going to have to hurry to make the next boat.” He waited until she was iside and then he tore down the driveway. “Peggy's spoiled all right.” he admitted, when they were on their way across the bay. “That’s one reason I wanted you to meet her. You could do a lot for her.” “I?” the other girl questioned in dismay. “Os course!” Steve answered. His good looking face was serious. “You see, Irene, you happen to have all the qualities poor little Peggy lacks. Qualities she’s going to need to be the wife of a surgeon. “Peggy is as openhearted and generous as a child. She has courage and a good deal of latent will power, but she isn't well balanced. She lacks poise, sportsmanship, and self-discipline.” (To Be Continued)
