He took a newspaper from his overcoat pocket and rea: a line or two here and there. Street lights, flashing by, gave indifferent illumination. A There was a story about Langton who had crashed Into a West Indian hurricane before. Some new theory, thought Grahame, that the famous fiyer had not died in_that storm. Poor Bill Langton, Why didn’t they let his name alone? He was gone and that was the end to it. Grahame began to feel impatient. The brief evening rain had passed, leaving the pavements wtth a treach- erous sheen. Grahame stirred for- ward fn his seat. He saw that they were swinging into the hairpin that some mouths GODDESS by Herbert n big man’s cyes went blank. He pitched toward . Grahame, who stepped sideways to let him fall / Grahame looked at the girl. Her eyes, wide; her hair was the color. of coined gold. He felt suddenly bareheaded and embarrassed, and looked for his hat. He found it, spotted and crushed, beneath the figure of the recumbent man. Pushing it into some sem- blance of its original shape, thought- fully he survgyed it a moment, and placed it on his head. He rubbed his right knuckles with q the palm. of his left hand. He | cleargd his throat. “Well—" he began inanely, when the motorcy- gles arrived. The police kicked the stands be: hind the wheels, and approached. One of them opened a notebook. *Whoopee?" he suggested wearl ly. “Names, please. Howd't happen, Is the man dead?” Grahame explained. Once, while he talked, he looked toward the black car for confirmation, and saw that although the girl's face was hidden in the shadow. her head nod- ded briskly. He said nothing of hav- ing followed the cars from the stu- dio, but began his statement as from; the time his headlights had flashed upon the two cars at the curb. “And 50," he concluded, “I hit him. he noticed, were blue and | e SAY I DO- BOY; OH, Boy !

The cab lost its footing upon the slick crown. [t skidded for a sick- | ening split second. The headlight's glare swerved across stucco house tronts, then flaghed upon the lac- quered surfaces of two cars at the tarther curb. Grahame dropped the newspaper he held in bis lap. He clutched at the door handle. In that brief cam era-snap glimpse Grahame saw that there had been.an accident. Figures of men had been moving about the cars. With a sense of shock he realized that one had been a black limousine and the other tan in color. He lifted his hand to rap on the panel. As be did so, the cab’s rubber found trac- tion. Brakes squealed. He jerked at the door handle. He ran back toward the cars. One, he saw was a black and gold-trim- med limousine halfway on the side- walk and against a hydrant. The tan nose of a pondescript car was agalinst the sleek side of the other like a slug against ebony. A trail, yards behind it, showed where tires had slid over the pavement. As he approached, Grahame's mipd régistered two facts: he would havé sworn that he'd seen four fiz ures outlined against the tan car— here wére but two,—a large man who lurdhed toward a little one. Grahame's driver had turned his cab so that the beadlights glowed upon the scepe. .The little man—a Japanese in dark uniform and cap— was retreating: tbe aggressor ad vanced with chin outtbrust, and an arn drawp backward in a gesture unmistakable. A girl—Grahame's eyes widened at her beauty—leaned torward from the rear seat of the black and gold car. Her fingertips were pressed against her mouth. “Hold on!” called Grahame.

What's your name “Grahame, F. A. Grahame.” The officer frowned and wet the Lip of his pentil. His companion, who had complet- ed an inspection of the cars, offered, ‘That’s the guy who just come back from South America.” The book snapped shut. The girl allowed the light to fall upon her face, and leaned forward toward the men. “Frank Grahame!” she exclaimed. “Oh, I knew you were someone im- portant!” ' “Hullo, Miss Kent,” said the offi- cers Grahame looked quickly at the girl. Ot course he recognized her now. Janjce Kent. Really, she was much more beautiful than her pic- tures showed her. He was conscious at once of two unrelated thoughts: that photography was an inadequate art, and that hereafter there would be real satisfaction to write on ofi- cial documents, “permanent resl- dence: Hollywood.” He observed that the police had litted the balf-conseioug man to the sidewalk, and were shoving the tan car away from the black oge. “It's only your painfwork dam 1zed,” said the officer of the note book to the Japanese. “Better take Miss Kent home now. We'll take care of him.” He pointed to the driver of the tap car who was lean ing against the lamp-post surveying the scene with stupid eyes. “Grahame .. . report at the pre cinet station . .. tomorrow :will do Send your, driver down, too, Mist Kent,” “Would you mind seeing me home, Mr. Grahame?” askeG the girl softly The man from the eab took the bill Grahame_extended him and walkied back toward bis ear.
