Anything the starlet earned over this sum was to be, di- vided betwen them on a 50-50 basis. In those days, $40 and $50 & week was big money to the Temples, and the agreement was joyfully signed. Shortly afterwards, Hayes went bankrupt, and Mrs. Temple bought back the contract for $25. A few weeks later, Shirley signed with Fox Film Corporation and bounded almost at once into the milion - dollar | class of wage earners.

SACRIFICE PLAY By Edward A Lawrence, for Why, my dear M!. she's practically got him in the bag.” “But what will happen to Sue? Poor girl...."” Sue Billings re- mained in the tele- phone booth until the two women had left the soda fountain. She took out her compact and glanced at her face. It was pale; her distended pu- pils “made her eyes black; her lips looked p.n:hed. She powdered her nose. Looking straight before her, she walked swiftly out of the drug store, down P street, up Fourteenth street—all the way home. She bolted the door of her upstairs room and went over to the side win- dow. She sat there quietly, looking out. She wondered why she couldn't cry. A charred pile of leaves at & corner of the garden emitted wisps of blue smoke; the trees were almost bare. It was the middle of Autumn. The wedding had been set for & day in the early Winter. And so Lisa Sheldon had him in the bag. * x x Hm thin brows drew together and her small pale face—so like & doll's beneath her short, flaxen curls— tightened for an instant, but the strained, empty expression crept back. It she could only cry, she thought. But she couldn't ecry; could only think—and feel. It hurt her to think that Lonny could be taken in by such an obvious person. There had certainly been nothing between them before Lisa had gone away to school. But New York had ground her smooth—and glossy. It had given her a pseudo-sophistica- tion and a slinky sort of glamour that had just been $oo much for Lon- ny, the poor, blighted infant. Lisa wasn't of the stripe that would make love to him before her eyes. Even in her blindness, she would have noticed that. Even in her blind- ness. ... A shadow darkened the earth; the huge, red sun slipped quickly below the horizon. She finally decided to sacrifice everything on one play. That would be best, she concluded, That would be fair. She got up and turneéd on her dressing-table light. The porch vines had lost their leaves, and, through their skeletal filigree, Sue watched the quiet street gloom moment by moment. The old trees stood still and stark in the | windless air. A patch of colorless sky revealed one dlm star. * X = Wmnma a pink, knitted jacket, for the night was cool, she rocked in the willow chair like sofe little old woman. He would be re- turning any moment now, she was thinking. 1 the Tear of the house she could | hear mother and father placidly dis- cussing politics, while Minnie Loo banged her pots and pans in the kitchen. A radio crooned softly farther up the block. And then she heard him coming. His footsteps rang hollow along the empty street. She looked down dumbly at her folded hands, and tobacco never looked up until she heard him run his hand across the pickets of the low white fence. He paused at the gate and squinted toward the porch. She began rocking again. He opened the gate and came up the short brick walk, “Lo, baby,” he said casually. He seemed restless, she thought, and a trifie embarrassed. “Hello,” she re- plied in & voice she scarcely recognized as her own. * ok Kk k HE CAME up besids her and took her hands in his. He was a tall, loosely built young man, with mel- ancholy eyes and a dimple in his chin. “What's the matter with you?” he said nonchalantly. “Your hands are as cold as ice.” “Why, nothing,” A MINUTE she quavered; SHE'S PUTTING IT OVER GREAT-AND FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 18, 1936. “nothing at all” She laughed, in order to verify the fact, but her laughter sounded as queerly as did her speaking voice. “You sound funny,” he said. She got up and leaned against the porch railing. She looked down at the withered shrubbery, and said: “Lonny, I've been thinking. I don't know if I've come to the right conclusion, but. I think I have. JI— I think we'd just better call the whole thing off.” He was silent for so long that she began to wender if he could hear the beating of her heart. She stole a glance at his face. He looked as he did after the first time‘he had kissed her, six years before sand sbhe had slapped him. “Do you feel okay?” he asked sob- erly. 8he said nothing. E GRABBED her dby her shoul- ders, “Who is he?” he cried hoarsely. “He? . . . Why, no one, Lonny. You know better than that. I—I've -just been thinking. We've grown to be so different, it seems, lately. I've really thought about it a lot. I think it would be best ., . Lonny, you're hurting me!” He released her shoulders and stepped back. His lean, boyish face stood out in the gloom like some old portrait. “What's that?” he croaked. “That’s the ring, Lonny.” He looked at it blankly. “Sue,” he blurted, “you can't do this! You can't do .this to me! You've got to give me a chance. DICK POWELL JOAN BLONDEI.I. AMUSEMENTS. We've got to talk this over, honey. 1 can’t imagine what'’s come over you. I'll be back tonight, same time. We'll talk this over. . . . Keep this ring; it gives me the jitters.” He fumbled with her hand, and. she allowed him to slip the ring back on. “‘Sue—please!” She pushed his arms back. “No, Lonny, we must approach this in & rational way.” She added, thoughte fully: “You come back and we'll talk it over. 1It's really a very serious de- cision—" She could hear his frantic footsteps far down ‘the street, long after he had passed from her sight. And now, knowing he would come back, she discovered she could cry.
