I know what you are to Pierre, t00.” Ann was a little embarrassed by this, She was not sure that Tony | did not mean a bit more than| she wanted him to mean. Did the | old actor, indeed, know all that {Pierre was to her? Was she, her- | self, sure that she knew? After all, e was Bruce Carey’s wife. “I have always felt that Pierre was differ- ent from ordinary people,” she said. “The world to which Pierre belongs is as far from this world in which I—in which we live—as ‘heaven is from earth.” | The old actor nodded in agree- ment, with an intent but kindly ex- ression, Slowly he said: “And the boy is going now into’ the world to which he was born—the world of the theatre.” Ann, forgetting herself, cried des- perately, “For me it will be as if Pierre were dead.

It's all right.” | When Ann had regained her com- yosure, the old actor said anxiou: , “But you still think it is r that he should use the money his mother left for his schooling in| dramatic art as she hoped he would use it, don't you?” | She turned quickly. “Of course 1 |do,” she cried. “Plerre must not | think of letting Bruce use his mon- ley as Bruce wants to do.” “Do you know anything about his |Nevada gold mining scheme that your husband wants Pierre to put his mongy into?” “Only what Bruce and father | say about it.” “Are you sure Pierre hasn’t al- ready turned his money over % | Bruce?” | “I know he hasn’t.

No one ever saw Pierre like that before. You know how he last night he was hard as iron. And the way he lectured Bruce and father about being money mad and ready to sell their souls for dol- lars!” The old actor’s face was beam- ing. “Told them where to go with had it in him if only he could be aroused to the real issue.” Ann could not fail to grasp that there was something behind Tony's elation which she did not know. Suddenly she asked: “What did you say to®Plerre when you gave him his inheri- tance?” Tony chuckled. much of anything. “Well, if you didn't say anything, what did you do to him?” “Well, first I took the boy to that little nook behind the willows —you know the place.” “Of course I know,” Ann returned gently. “You and Pierre’s mother used to call it your theatre. But what happened to Pierre?” “Well, I gave him his inheritance —it was his twentieth birthday.” “Yes, but you must have said or done more than that. I know from “I didn't say happened to him. Why, he even told Bruce he'd see him in hell be- fore he'd let him touch a single penny of his school money. What did you do to change Plerre like that?"” “It must have been my play; that did it. You see, I've written a play for Plerre.” He laughed as he indicated the manuscript. “Your play?”’ Ann had never be- fore hear of it. “Oh, how wonder- ful! And has Pierre known that you were writing a play for him?” Old Tony laughed triumphant- ly. “He didn’t know about it until yesterday afternoon. You see, 1 got the idea about three months ago when Bruce first talked to Pierre about this Nevada gold mining that might happen if Pierre should let Bruce have his money, and so I wrote a play about it. Yesterday when I gave Pierre his inheritance, I read my play to him.” “Oh-h-h, so that's what hap- pened to him.” The old actor held up his manu- seript. “I brought this copy over this afternoon for Pierre to. take with him.” “But won't you tell me about your play, Father Tony?" The old actor looked down at his manuseript. “Would you like to hear it?” “Oh, I'd love to! What is the title?” (Copyright, 1930, by D. Aplpeton and Co.)
