FANNIE BRICE MYMA? By Arline de Haas

SYyOPRIS

Fanny Grice sens in a costumer's shop and raises her brother, Phil, and her sister, Audrey, makinp every sacrifice that Audrey may le spared any hardship, hut .Imdrey leaves hjome to "live her own life.'' Lazarus, art director jar "Waldo, theatrical producer, hears Fanny siny and lakes her to Waldo. In the middle-of the audition Fanny Pams of Audrey's interest in Waldo. Heartbroken, she fails in the try-out. Then Fanny sees a man. Tom, demonsfrating muscle builders. Months later she discovers him, down and out, raiding her ice tor. She falls in lore with him and, believing be loves her, prrripitales an engagement. Then Audrey

returns^

CHAPTER IX—Continued

‘ “Uh—uh, yeah," Tom nodded, frying to cover his embarrassment by lighting his pipe. His hands trembled. He lowered his eyes, somehow afraid to look at the girl. Audrey gazed about the familiar room. Well, here she was—back again. But not for long, If she

barrassed by Audrey and her giggles, tried to look away. "Pretty!” Audrey ii"ld up a "teddy,” pulling it around her waist as though to see whether it fitted. She was pretending to carry on a conversation, pretending to be admiring the tilings herself, but she was watching Tom and the effects of her actions on him. "Yeh,” Tom nodded uncertainly. Somehow, it seemed finite a different matter to see Audrey playing with these things than it did 10 see Fanny. He couldn’t undersfnnd quite why, but it was ;0, neverthe-

less.

"How long ’ve you been around here?” Audrey questioned, still busy with Die garments in the hops

CTiest.'

"Me? Oh, I been livin’ here since —lemme sec a • Fob’rary, I

guess.”

"Oh, you live here!"

"Yeh, Fanny t< nb d a room. I got a job down to Thorne’s, too.” "Ob, 1 see.” Audrey laughed. Well. Fanny was cert inly a quick worker. Here It was only June, and Fanny’d got herself engaged

.. oli „, and everything. S!n ' 1 never excould help ft. It looked Just as! I'CCted It of I'anny, and -’ir couldn't

shoddy, Just as poor aj) ever. But It would do to help her tide over a few days until more important things happened. Waldo hadn’t expected her to walk out, as she had, and after he’d find her missing, he’d iis hack for her soon enough, she thought. They hud had no quarrel; the theatrical producer had simply grown less and less at-

Audrey moved restlessly about

the house,

tentlve. But once he found that she had meant what she saW when she told him that she’d leave him, he'd regret his indifference. Audrey never dreamed that Fanny knew anything about the man for whom she had left home. She believed her sister to be as Innocent of that subject as a child. She didn’t know that Fanny knew more of the truth than she, herself, did; that Fanny had been told by Waldo’s office boy that the "boss was getttn’ tired of his girl friend.” And Audrey woudn’t have believed the office boy anyhow. She had 'oO much faith In her attractions. She didn't believe that l>e was simply letting her down easy, because she didn’t want to believe it. She had

yet understand it. T nn didn’t seem very much'in love with her sister, that was certain—cither that or he was pretty bashful. Sh>'didn't know which, but she preferred to think the latter, because Audrey’s brain worked only in one circle and that circle comprised only one idea, namely, that no one could possibly fall in love with Fanny and especially after seeing herself. “Say, that does look swell on you!" Tom suddenly managed to gasp as Audrey held up an espe-

cially fluffy negligee.

“Like It?” Audrey looked ovef her shouhhx archly, meeting Tom's eyes with a glance that lured and Invited and then disappeared be-

neath fluttering lashes.

She knew that Tom was Interested. Oh, he was easy enough. But anyhow, he was a man, and for a week or so he might he u-ed to cater to her whims and her wishes. After that, she could drop him and let him go hack to Fanny, if ho liked. For by that time she'd have Waldo again, and 't't,. r B ii, there wasn't much choice between a noted theatrical producer and a truck driver. She Stnilad, and then started towards the dining room at Fanny's summons.

CHAPTER X

For a day or so following Audreyla return to the apartment in the Bronx there was more excitement and commotion than usual, and then life settled hack onra again Into its accustomed routine. The air was hot, now, with the lire of summer. Heavy waves of glittering heat flickered restlessly, pendant In space above the burning concrete and sizzling asphalt. The days were sultry and oppressive; the subways fetid with the odors of slaving humanity. The nights were lightning-shot, the warm rains scarcely cooling the burnt atmosphere. Saturdays and Sundays brought throngs of automobiles moving like swarms of gnats over the highways towards the benches and summer resorts. Fanny « irked harder than ever, sewing all day long in the shop, and then coming home In the evenings to prepare Die dinner; and

threatened so tnanv times to walk, then atterwards to sew again oil out. and In a moment of anger, I her aim ‘t-compi " d trousseau, /when Waldo had refused to see Audrey moved iv rh sly about tho

her, she had gone, leaving no mes-

sage for him.

iu the meantime, while she waited for Waldo to come a-begging, she might as well save her money, what little she had, and stay at home. She had expected to spend a quiet time just resting and sleeping. She needed it. she reflected. Too many late parties, and too much bootleg liquor didn’t do one's looks any good. But now, here was a new interest. Fanny’s beau. He might make things a little more lively. She looked at him speculatively. She didn't really want him for herself, but he was the nearest male and that was enough

for Audrey.

Audrey rose from her chair slowly, still smiling. "How long’ve you an’ Fanny been engaged?” she be^"Oh, I dunno—a couple months, 1 guess,” Tom answered slowly, watching Audrey’s movements as

she strolled about the room

"Seems funny ta think of Fanny bein’ engaged,’’ she meditated. “What's all this?" She moved towards the hope chest and fingered the silk underwear that Fanny had so recently displayed for Toms benefit. . . . "That? Oh, that’s Fanny s—what d’ya call It—hope chest. Some

stuff she’s been sewin’."

"Hope chest!” Audrey giggled. "Imagine Fanny with a hope chest, flee, that’s a scream.” She lifted out the pink silk nightgown that had almost met disaster with Tom s pipe. She held It up to her, fluffing out the ribbons. "Imagine hanny with a hope chest." she repeated, as us though the Idea were too much

for her mind to conjure with

“Yeah, she’s been sewln . Tom, not knowing what to say, and cm-

house complaining of the heat, dressing only towards evening when Tom appeared. She made no effort to look for any kind of a position, simply accepting the arrangements Fanny had made for her. She had her old room again, while Tom had been shifted to Phil’s room, and Phil slept on a temporary cot In the living room. Fanny wondered, at times, about h r sister’s plans, hut she was afraid tij broach the subject lest Audrey should feel that

she were not welcome.

Audrey still waited for some word from Waldo, and ns the days passed and none came she grew more mid more irritable, more and more exacting. Her plan hadn’t worked as well ns sho had expected. She had carefully left her forwarding address and still the expected leu-T never arrived. And then one day she read in the paper that Bronson Waldo, the theatrical producer, was sailing for Europe In search of material for his next revue. Sailing for Europe, and without even so much as sending her a note. Audrey felt as though a steam roller had suddenly run

over her.

So Waldo had gone to Europe and she was, ns “ho put it, ditched. She considered the matter for a while, curled up In a chair, her negligee pushed hack from her full, round throat, her damp, uncombed curls clinging to her warm face. Finally she shrugged her shoulders. Well, that was over. She wasn’t one to worry much about the past. What, was done was done. Nor was she inclined to think of the future. Whatever presented Itself close to hand was enough for tho moment. And that, at this time, 'ould ha spelled with three letters r-O-M.

Charlie (lift, usually the bright and shining light for the visitors, was held at bay by the Cubs’ defense.

gregation while Hall looked best for the losers. Russellville won a hard fought scrap from Fillmore, 36 to 2X ovet on the Russellville floor. As usual Harbison, center, was the bright light for Russellville. Kersey was the most consistent performer for Fillmore. The score at the intermission was Russellville 19; Fillmore 15.

Coach Vernon Cochenour’s Cloverdale net tossers ran aw r ay from Belle Union to the tune of 49 to 15 in a game played on the south Putnam floor. Cloverdale was out in front, 21 to 6 at the end of the first twenty minutes. The outcome was never in doubt soon after the initial tip-off.

Talking about defense—did you notice how the Greencastle boys stopp d the Brazil offense time after time, making them throw the ball to the back guard after being unable P> get in under the basket. —o— Oswalt, the invading back guard, registered two or three long field goals at the first of the battle, and Gross finally decided to go out and meet him. Oswalt managed to make one more basket before the contest ended, hut this wasn’t Art’s fault. —o— Kuqua, in our estimation, is about j (he best athlete in the Brazil lineI up. This boy is a constant offensive threat and he is not so bad when it comes to defense. Hammerstine when one first sees him on the basket ball floor, don't see how he can stand a full game. But ; for all his thinness, Hammerstine is wiry and has endurance, He gets this by TRAINING. Fans seemed pretty well satisfied with the outcome of Ihe tilt. "Revenge is sweet," you know. The standing with Brazil for the season is .500 per cent. Brazil won its gym dedication game and the (’uhs won last night. Brazil won at home and Greencastle won at home which makes fans of each city happy. —o— And we want to congratulate the Junior Cubs also for their victory ovjer the Brazil Juniors. The locals outI played their opponent- from the ( lav county seat and the outcome of the curtain raiser was never in doubt. : The score of the junior game by iquarters was as follows; 1st quarter: Greencastle 10, Brazil 0; 2nd quartet : !Greencastle 13, Brazil 2; 3rd quartjer: Greencastle 24, Brazil 13; 4th quarter: Greencastle 33, Brazil 16. j In the junior game, referee Frank Masten called numerous fouls on the Brazil crowd for “booing" his decis- : ions. When a Brazil player held, Masten called a foul. This brought | a roar from tho Brazil section which was maintained until Masten had calljed 5 fouls on them, which gave Greencastle 6 chances at the hoop from the charity stripe. Butler, who was pitching the fouls, made 3 out of the 6. < » * —o— We witnessed the junior and varsity games from the bleachers last night and enjoyed it.
