FOLLY and FAREWELL

BEGIN HERE TODAY Linda Bourne, JO years old, pretty, is left almost penniless by the sudden death of her father. Peter Gardiner, newspaper reporter, helps her *et a Job writing society news. is in love with Dix Carter, but he goes abroad to study singing. When Teter asks Linda to marry him she agrees, but postpones the wedding. Honey Harmon, film star, comes to Newtown, making a “personal appearance” tour. She buys a scenario written by Linda. Later Linda goes to Hollywood and, by expressing Ideas that r.re really Petgr's, acquires a reputation >or being able to discovery new stars. Soon she is a celebrity. At a party given by Honey Harmon, Linda meets Basil Thorne, director. Attracted by him at first, she later avoids him. Dix Carter comes to Hollywood to get into films as an actor. Linda tries to help him. She hesitates, however, when he asks her to introduce him to Basil Thorne. At last, she agrees. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY. CHAPTER SIXTEEN T INDA hated herself when she had hung up after making an engagement to dine with Basil Thome the next night but one. This time she didn't agree to meet him at his home. They were dining at the Continental. She dreaded it and planned her evening. And she came very near to disliking Dix. She knew that he had deliberately planned to have her telephone Thorne. She excused him because she knew how badly he wanted to get his chance. She agreed that Thorne was the most important director to Dix, and she forgave him entirely when she realized that Dix couldn't know the situation between herself end Thorne. Dix was the kind of boy she had known back in Newtown, a gentleman with a code like her own. A code very different from that of Thorne. Dix couldn’t be expected to guess that when a woman is reluctant to call a man she has good reason. She prepared herself for that night, knew the note that she was going to strike and hold. Nevertheless she found herself nervous, not with anticipation such as she had felt the last time she had an engagement with the director, but with fear that she could not be able to carry it off. BUT she did. She wasn’t flirtatious, but she was charming, flattering, and if her manner didn't say yes, it didn't say no. She took a cue and played up to him. She made him feel that she was not angry with him because of the insult (she thought it so privately), but surprised and hurt that he would consider her in such a light. She managed to put this over without referring to the incident. And when he wanted to apologize for that night, she wouldn’t let him. Tnorne was impressed sincerely with Linda. He felt that he had made a blunder and was grateful that it was not an unforgivable one. He was flattered that she had finally called him. He rearranged his tactics, adjusted his intentions, was suave, courteous, and charming. They dined and danced and talked of pictures in the making. Linda was careful not to mention Dix Carter’s name. Thome took her home, kissed her’ hand gallantly, and asked if he might seen her the next day. Linda refused. When he telephoned the next day and she thanked him for was pratically a blanket of

white violets, she said she would have cocktails with him the following Saturday. tt tt # T INDA was mistress of the situation. She knew it couldn’t go on forever, but she banked on Thorne’s acceptance of the genre of their companionship she had created. Asa matter of fact, he was rather enjoying it. Linda was a girl worth trying to get. He liked her wit and her wits, her manner and her manners. He liked being seen with her. Linda didn’t know that her reserve, her aloof attitude, her lack of attachments, the complete lack of any gossip about her, her achievements and her attractive self had made her more famous in the colony than her more colorful co-workers. Invitations to her parties were sought after. Her intimates were the more conservative members of the colony, and she numbered among her closest friends three unreproachable stars of true greatness. Yes, Linda Bourne, in any way, at any price, was a feather in Basil Thorne’s cap. That was the time that Hollywood was beginning to realign its social strata. Linda brought the same elegance to Hollywood that made her president of the Newtown Junior League. She was invited to Pickfair, met visiting royalty and was not unknown in Pasadena society. tt tt WITH Thorne, she couldn’t recapture the mood that had made for light banter on the occasion of their first meeting. “How are the love-letters piling up?” he asked, going back to it. “I told you I didn't save them,” she said “Does the same thing go for saving old loves?” She looked at him in complete surprise, naively assumed. Where did I hear it?” He drew his brows together in simulated thought. “An idyll about a boy and girl romance? Girl comes to Hollywood, makes good. Boy goes to Europe, doesn’t make good. Follows girl to Hollywood and . ..” Surprised out of her role, Linda said hastily and hotly, “That's ridiculous! It wasn’t a romance. Dix did make good in Europe, and would here if he had a chance.” “So you're playing lady patroness?” “Hardly. He comes around to see me. If I were playing lady patroness. I should have sent him to you first. That ought to prove my point.” She appeared to be elaborately patient. tt a HE was thoughtful. “That's quite true. Would you like me to meet him?” That was exactly what Linda wanted him to say. She didn’t want to ask him for the favor. She never wanted to be indebted to him, but in her fondest hopes she had never expected the idea would come from him. She appeared to be thinking it over. “How did you know he was a singer?” she asked after a while. “I didn’t,” he answered. "Is he?” “Yes. Baritone and sweet —voice, I mean. He’s done some excellent things in England. I think you might be interested to see and hear him.” %s . “Give him a card and he can see ' jL.siV.. ,)„

me at the studio.” Thorne called for his check. That wasn’t what Linda wanted. “Will you dine with me, Sunday, a week? We’ll dine alone and I’ll ask some people in. You can hear him then. I think he will come.” “I’d like it better if we spent the evening alone,” he said. She smiled and that was all. No answer. tt tt u T~\IX was elated. So was she. Doing something for him at last made her happy. She would dispose of Thorne in due time. She had gotten herself in to it and she would get out. The only difficulty at the moment was being entertaining to Thorne and thinking of Dix. She had more to think of in a few hours. Gretchen Morgan was giving a stork shower for Hilda Howe. Every movie-goer in America’ knew “a little stranger” was expected in the vivacious, dark-haired star’s menage and the girls in Hollywood were doing their bit with imported baby clothes, enough toys to stock several orphanages and quite as well by the caterer. The girls were talking about men. Not unusual at a hen party. Gretchen, who had been engaged to practically every unattached male star, sighed wistfully. “Ronald Colman is still my dream man.” “I have anew dream man! Have you seen Gardiner, the playwright? Metro brought him out last week and women are swooning all over the lot. One of those strong, silent men with a pace like a panther and a smile that breaks suddenly and —Whoops!—hearts are broken!” Gilda De Lyse looked toward heaven. n % tt T INDA, hiding her face bacx oi her teacup, remembered that smile. So Pete Gardiner had come to Hollywood! “And, my dears, he already has been annexed,” Cora Jarret contributed. “Glascow asked him what woman he wanted most to meet in Hollywood the day he got off the train, and he said, ‘Honey Harmon.’ That was all she needed. She . . .” “What’s happened to Bas i 1 Thorne? I thought he was her last big moment? Someone answered, and then there was the slightest pause before someone changed the subject. In that pause Linda caught one short, exchanged glance and knew that they had stopped because of her. Already they were linking her name with that of the director. There was Dix, Thome, and now Pete! And Honey had “annexed” him? Well, why not? Linda shrugged her shoulders in their beautiful white tailored coat. Did she expect to tie every man to her apron string? She certainly wasn't that kind of a girl, she hoped. She unpinned the violet corsage on her coat and left it in the dressing room. Violets always reminded her of Pete Gardiner and the first time he had brought them to her.

_ THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

BY MARJORIE BINFORD WOODS Times Fashion Editor HERE are bridal clothes that will give the wadding guests something really exciting to talk about. In that breathless pause just before the music rolls into the wedding march there's a faint rustle of taffeta.

Then come the dainty flower girls in pale blue mousseline de soie strewing rose petals in the path of the bride. There’s a “sugar and spice, n’everything nice” air about these crisp, ruffled frocks so picturesque in their little-girl freshness. The handembroidered pink rosebud touches match the tones of the Sweetheart roses decorating the tiny French baskets. tt tt tt THE bride meets the big moment of her life with a combination of Victorian quaintness and modern simplicity. Her white lace wedding dress is not one that will have to be stored in the attic after the ceremony. Under the long-trained coat with tight-fitting sleeves is a smart white formal of low-cut, fitted lines. The choir boy collar is distinctly new and lends a celestial look that blends well with her prayer book attitude. Those solemn words “I do” can be spoken with great self assurance in a veil as young and flattering as this tulle cap and bow creation. Lilies of the valley are effectively intertwined in the braided tulle turban band. It's a double-ring ceremony so the bride wears a double circular veil of sweeping effect, that is strikingly different. When the wedding is over the papers are certain to proclaim it one of the outstanding weddings of the season, “so fresh, so young, so smart.” Propylaeum’s Hostess List Is Announced Assistant hostesses for the Propylaeum Club May entertainment are to greet members and guests attending the musical Monday.

SQUEEZES FOR BIG SLAM

Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY WM. E. M’KENNEY American Bridge League Secretary T TAX' a you ever sat opposite one -*■ those no trump slam bidders, wondering how big a set you might be forced to take with him as a partner? Os course, occasionally the optimistic bidding of such a player will produce a good score. Today’s hand was played recently in a rubber game at the Mayfair Bridge Club of New York. You hardly can blame North for getting into some kind of slam, as his diamond bid over one club is a slam demand; then when South bid two hearts and later showed a long club suit by his jump to four clubs, North eouici hardly be criticised for his leap to seven no trump. At least, that was a sure way of getting mere. To make the contract, however, a nice squeeze play had to be employed.

At this point declarer had a perfect reading on the hand. East marked with a club and two spades; West with a spade, a heart and a diamond. All declarer had to do was to lay down the king of hearts and discard dummy’s four of diamonds. East was squeezed. His best play was to discard a spade. Declarer now led the seven of spades. When West followed the ace was played front dummy, capturing East’s king and the last trick was won with the queen of spades. (Copyright, 1936, NEA Service, Inc.) Miss Hornaday Becomes Bride of B. C.

MY DAY By Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt

YORK, Friday.—Tliis Standard and Daylight Saving time certainly complicates my life. I wish we could all be on the same time because I never was good at arithmetic. I went to Philadelphia this morning to meet the Demo-

cratic women and found that though I did not have to arrive there until 12 o’clock I had to leave Washington by an 8 o'clock train to accomplish this, as Washington is on Standard Time and Philadelphia is on Daylight Saving Time. I rather wish I had an opportunity to see my small grandson, who lives near Philadelphia, but I fear one’s grandchildren and large groups of ladies do not amalgamate very well, so I shall have to await a visit from him in the near future. From the station we went directly to the home of Mrs. Earle, the wife of the Governor of Pennsylvania, for a delightful luncheon. As we ar-

Mrs. Roosevelt

rived we were greeted by a group of Girl Scouts whom I am always glad to see. After luncheon there w r as a reception and I made a 3 O'clock-Standard Time train to New 7 York, where I hope to have a more or less peaceful week-end. I have in my brief case a great deal of material which has to be read through during these next few days—some in preparation for a speech, one report from the Prison Industrial Board, a report of one of the public housing groups, two government reports, and a manuscript on education from a gentleman who kindly sent it to me some time ago. I am ashamed to have had it so many weeks without giving it any consideration. Trains are valuable to me primarily because they provide me with reading time. I only wish that some of this reading time could be given to the books which I have piled up waiting the day when I shall have the leisure hours to sit and lose myself in somebody else's thoughts. I do assimilate a great deal of many other people's thoughts, but they are all more or less along the same lines. (Copyright, 1936, by United Feature Syndicate, Inc.)
