-~ one of JACQU ON HE by RICHARD STARR SYNOPSIS: As her latest ad- venture Jacqueline Grey plans a visit to a night club., Mrs. Por- | ter Mason and Mr. Arthur C rew, whom Mrs. Porter intro- duces, join her and they dine | first at Mascagni’s restaurant. From an adjoining table, Teddy Montrese notices Jacqueline and is captivated by her beauty. Jacqueline’s departure depresses him. Such a wealthy girl is not for him. He seeks solace in the company of three strangers who inveigle him into a card game in the apartment of one of them. Teddy cheats the cheaters and a fight brews. Tt is intermupted by the sudden appearance of a girl through the windows from the fire es- cape.

Four men stood astounded, im- movable, looking at the startling picture she made. Teddy was the nearest to her, and a strange and subtle perfume drift- ed from her to him and got into his brain, It was something east- ern; he did not know what. { “Oh!" she gasped at last. “The police! They are raiding the—! night club. I-—-I don't know how I got away. They are all round the place. Somebody turned the lights out and I climbed out of a win- dow. Then I crawled along a ledge and—jumped. Ugh! It was horri- ble! Teddy went cold, that the flat was three flights up. She was trembling pitifully, and her little face was as white as the| frock she wore. | “I—I hope you will forgive mc‘ for breaking into your rooms like| this.

He no- ticed that particularly, but he did not attach any particular meaning to it. He had seen the pearls be- fore. He saw now only the girl, and knew she was above price. He knew also that the fate which guides young men when they havel made monumental idiots of them- selves was being kind to him to-, night if it never was again. But that double row of pearls she wore was, to all appearances, worth a small fortune. The thought ob- truded itself on the minds of three of the men present at once. “Which of you gentlemen will b.(‘ g0 good as to—" Jacqueline asked. oy will,” said Teddy Montrose stepping forward at once. Something flashed in her eyes fike dark lightning. Relief shone in her face.

Quite calm and unruffled Teddy held the door open with a bow, Jacqueline put her hand lightly on his arm, and looked up into his face with just the ghost of a little reckless laugh. She was fine Teddy was proud of her. They if they were walking out of a ball- room. A minute later they were speed- ing from the scene in a taxi. | (Copyright, 1930, Richard Starr) A stronger bond than adven- ture brings Teddy, and Jacqu line closer together, tomorrow.

It is Ann Leaf, famous radio organist, who sends out a passion- ately sincere appeal to her sister artists not to neglect this new opportunity. “There are now, at this moment, some five thousand positions open in the larger theatres of the country for organists,” she as- serts. “Women should be able to fill the greater number of these Ppositions, could fill them, if they | would on_lg open their eyes to th opportunities awaiting them as toanercxal organists, “Any ‘woman who ean play e — music is a p ganist.
