Because Loutre is a coward. Despite his splendid physique—you must im- againe him over 6 feet tall and de- cidedly handsome—despite his splen- did physique, 1 say, he is as yellow _they make them. Never takes a ‘Always out to save his skin. Would betray anything and anybody rupulously if he sees his advan- it, and is consequently de- spised by the police as well as by his tellow criminals. Only women fall for him. As I told you, he is a handsome devil. “One day the Matin, having nothing else to do, runs a series of articles bout the crime wave, and in conse- quence the police get busy. The usual thing you know. Ralds, arrests, in- vestigations, and so forth. Crime be- comes less profitable and more danger- ous than ever. And Loutre hates every danger. He decides, there- fore, to leave his old haunts and his chosen associates and to disappear for a while. To do something else. But what? Suddenly he remembers a cer- tain girl who had been arrested for shoplifting and sentenced to the re-. formatory. Somebody had told him only lately that this girl had gone into the movies and was making a lot of money. He determined to find out with what company she is work- ing, and €0 he does. One fair marn- ing he accosts that poor girl on her v to the studio, and in his best mailing manner he puts position before her! ‘Either you me o position with your or I'll tell what I know. you all the details of the dicker- flicient to say he gets what he demands. He is introduced as a relative of the girl and the di- rector gives him a tryout. And by w queer chance Loutre does well. He screens quite wonderfully, and his zestures have a savage, natural ef- fectiveness which is most astounding. Loutre becomes thus at once a full- fledged screen actor, and as he is really good looking they make him play_ the heroes. very day now he rescues Inno- cence out of the clutches of vice; every day he succors the poor; eve he withers the villaln with his 1d silence; every day, in short, he more virtuous than Sir Galahad in person. And since this virtue pays, he enjoys it. His salary becomes ever more ntastic, his contracts ever more favorable, his name more and more n household word in this movie-mad world of ours. And that s on for years. And then sud comes a crash. A hqtel affair. Too much wine, too much drugs, too much everything, and a girl dies. And Loutre, the idol of the public, becomes an outcast. His contracts are not renewed, his pictures are no longer booked, he is done for. He drops out. From one day to another he is for- gotten. Nothing is left for him but to return to his former. life!” Aristide paused and reached for an- other cigarette. Kersac shoved the box over to him. and even gave him u light. “Well,” he asked, “and what then?" “Then,” explained Aristide, “begins the real tragedy. Loutre finds out that one cannot be virtuous for years without paying for it in the end.” One cannot constantly parade as a hero and be afterward successful as a vil- lain. Poor Loutre cannot bully his y more—for too long a. time his cue was to protect and to defend t blackmail he is now a he is constantly tempt- ed to take 1f by the scruff of the neck 'and to hand himself over to the He has done it over and over 1gain with his partners who were cast for this thankless role. Thus he de- teriorates and goes to pieces—a help- pr get pany on—but also bring in anclent occult bellefs, significant hints out of the childhood of mankind. Have you ever read Frazer's monumental work. “The Golden Bough?” Just look up the chapter on Imitative Magic—how the Imitator becomes the Very Thing he imitates. That's something stu- pendous, something thrilling. this is worked in somehow. Just as background, you know. Atmosphere. I'll tell you, Kersac, that Loutre thing will go big. It will make some hit. And now say that I'm not good to you. “Well," retorted Kersac, “to write for La Revue Illustree is, after all, not such a sacrifice. But, anyway, don't let's scrap about it. Just give me the story and I'll write you a check.” “Why, no,” said Aristide with a rather engaging smile, “just give me @ check and I'll write you the story.” Kersac stared blankly at the im. pudent visitor. “You mean to say,” he asked, the story isn't done at all?" Aristide became at once voluble. “Done? What do you mean by done? Have I shown you Loutre? Have I created him? Does he live? You were ready to accept him—that's proof enough. All that remains to be done is the mere mechanical work of writing the thing down. But to do that I need a warm room, a meal, some clgarettes, even paper and a, typewriter ribbon. And I happen to be out of all these commodities. So for your sake, simply to be able to provide your magazine with a splen- did success, I am willing to accept an advance. That Loutre stuff is worth 500 francs, isn't it? Well, give me 200 francs now and you'll get the manuscript tomorrow Kersac was furious. “I won't give you a red sou until I have the story,” he shouted. “I know you too well.” Aristide shrugged his “Sult yourself,” he said nonchalantly. T am not so fond of life that I should care if I prolong it for a while or not. For my part I can starve. It was for your sake that I wished to keep alive and to write you a howling success. But it's up to you, of course.” Kersac looked utterly disgusted. “I'll give you 20 francs,’ growled, “rot & sou more."” Aristide shook his head. “It has to be 200 or nothing,” he insisted. “Then it will be nothing," said Ker- sac in a tone of utter finality. Aristide got up and went to the door; he went very slowly, to give Kersac a chance to change his mind, and his heart sank when the editor busied himself among his papers with- out making any move. Aristide had already turned the handle and his hopes were at their lowest ebb when Kersac called him back. “Here," he al “that he , “take 100 francs and £o to the Gevil. And while Aristide pocketed the money, he added sternly: “And mind you, I want this manu- script tomorrow. I might run it in the New Year's number. " (Continued in Tomorrow's Star.) Have You Your Share? The per capita wealth of the United States in 1924 was $40, as against only $13.45 in 1900. In 1914, just before the World War, it was $18.95. The total wealth today s $4,500,000,000, accord- ing to the director of the United States mint, and is growing rapidly.

Kersac smiled a bit. ‘“Musset say: On ne badine pas avec l'amour'— ‘One must not toy with love’; your opinion evidently is: ‘On ne badine pas avec la vertu.'” Aristide nodded; ““One must not toy idly with, or for that matter at, any emotion without paying some price for it.

Among the improvements this year will be a new ‘pump to supply water to the kitchen, & new floor for the storeroom, comple- tion of the fireplace in the recreation building, a new headquarters shack, and minor changes to the handicraft shop, the camp store and the dining room. Each year a new pier must be con- structed, the tent platforms repaired, a diving platform built and the equip- ment put in order. This year over 20 men and boys, the largest staff Camp Roosevelt has ever had, will keep the program running at maximum effi- clency. At the Wilson Reservation, Burnt Mills, Md., mueaned facilities will also be provided. E. A. Bosarge is now at the renrvazlnn and working diligently to get it in readiness for the greatly increased number of Scouts who will be using the facilities there as soon as_the schools are closed. ‘ashington Boy Scouts are fortu- nate in having these two excellent camps provided for their enjoyment. There i3 every indication that more Scouts than ever before will be living in the open this Summer as the result of improvements made at each of them.
