SYNOPSIS: The arrogant Mark Lodely and the eccentric Patsy Raoul are in the midst of a furt- ous quarrel in Patsy's dressing room. Patsy scores a ht b; cusing Mark of trading upon his crippled body, Mark Uves with Farrell Armitage, millionaire. who has secured the ‘promise of Bar- bara Quentin, Mark’s flancée, to postpone their wedding a year by eorecing to use all his resources to lounch Mark as on artist i that time, Leila Cane, who ts fas- einated by Mark. is vaying Patsy to engineer an aifair with him. Chapter 25 CRUCIFYING CONSTANTIA patsrs assertion that he traded on his crippled body entirely in- furiated Mark. It was the first time in his life that his plea for special concessiors had been brushed aside. He became smilingly venomous. He said— “Another thing that will prevent you from ever amounting to any- thing is the fact that you are un- educated. Such broad effects as you get, you get photographically—yon don’t develop them by means of a cultured or even an intelligent ob- servation. In short, you can only mimic, you can’t create—” “You'd better go and tell that to the ‘Watcher,’ they printed a whole column about my art being the only creative—” it was the harassed dresser who, ten minutes later, managed to inter- yene. And even then no definite trace was called urtil the door was flung wide and a bunch of young men and women slithered into the: dressing-room, With much flaunting of bad language and many endear- ments, they jostled each other upon the threshold and demanded the company of Patey Raoul for the rest of the night. Mark’s excitement increased. He ‘was not impressed by the enamelled costliness of the women, nor by the over-confident bearing of the men, but he saw at last his avenues of approach to a world that must be’ made to take heed of him, “Ab, madame ja duchesse, I feel 80 sorrow,” Miss Raoul was apolo- sizing. “But no, { asleep must go: much late hours ee-nervate, not?” She pointed derisively to Mark. “But there, tnere is a cree-ative artist whom can rest all the day.. As I cannot!” The scented and bejewelled flock turned inquiringly. Mark lifted his eyes to those of a dark-skinned, straight-backed woman whose hair was hidden under a sort of bathing cap of gold brocade, “My passports,” he murmured, of- fering her the sketches. She made &* gredt’ Héal*ot dose over them and. her companions, when she was persuaded to let them share her raptures, made a great deal more. A young woman whom Mark recognized as the Duchess of Northering flopped to the seat be- side bim. She was more heavily made up than Patey Raoul and near- ly as thin. “But you must be most decompos- ingly clever!” she announced. | “These things are simply decompos- ingly good. You must draw me next —everybody always draws me and then they draw Constantia—” she {looked with malice at a short wo man in a backless dress of yellow. “She'll pay you a lot but I shall be far better advertisement for you, You must see that. Isn't Patsy Raoul quite too :;: gent, really?” “She doesn’t like me,” said Mark. Miss Raoul? I think per- Jealous of me.” “Take him away. Far,” command- d Miss Raoul with cvery eign of disgust, Mark allowed himself to be taken. ‘There were more of the > aD parently, outside in the passage. “Hullo, Mark!” Mark looked up from prodigious labor with his crutch—for in spite of thelr sympathy and admiration for him, none of his friends seemed to think it neceseary to wait for him or help him—and discovered Leila. “Hullo, Leila! As one country cousin to another, where are these: grand ladies and gentlemen taking us to? And who is going to pay for our drinks?” “It’s my party,” vociferated the short woman in yellow whom the others called Constantia and treated with a sort of contemptuous toler. ance. “I wish Miss Raoul could have come but I've got Fan Rin and ber dancing partner and that sweet boy out of ‘Here’s Hoping!’ and Mr. Lodely is a tind. Bring your friend along, Mr. Lodely, she looks ® sweet girl.” The lovely young duchess hooked glint of character or courage, and swore at her bitterly for her clumsi- ness. She squealed her delight, “Oh, I simply tingle for you! How urgent it feels to be sworn at in the first five minutes—generally that doesn’t come till so much later on! through, will you marry me? I shan't have a cent, of course, because Northering is going bankrupt di- : rectly afterwards, bat you'll be mak ing thousands and really I can dress on very litile.” A blond youth with red-rimmed eyes interposed a witticism which temporarity incapacitated the en- tire company with the exception of the hostess; she was trying to rope in two slim, sequin-covered acrobats who were just emerging from their dressing-room. “Now do come to my party, it’s at the Da Capo, just ask for Mrs. Lewis J. Jacobson’s table—there’l be a whole bunch of the loveliest tolke—” The acrobats, who were Russians, made exquisite gestures of non-undorstanding, threw their white dust-cloaks round them and ran off in the direction of the wings. “Coming, Leila?” siailed Mark. “Coming, sweet girl?” “I may come on lJater but 1 must see Patsy Raoul. 1 want Barbara to fix her house for her but—” Mark did not trouble to listen. A man known as Freddy was pulling impatientiy at him and he set him- self to traverse the apace before him. The blond Freddy was as in- adequate a support as one might have expected from his appearance and Mark wae relieved when he hastened on in front and opened and shut doors instead. Mark’s brow was wet by the time he had dragged him- self out of the theater and into the car which awaited them, Nevertheless, he was stifl smi)- ing as they drove off atthe tail of the festal procession, He was not going to jose his temper except when he could do it to dramatic advantage, While Freddy and the duches. continued te besmear the Rame and fame of Mrs. Lewis J. Jacobson with mud—the very car ‘that held them was, he gathered, hershe tricf to fix tits mind upon the next. few. hours. Irritatingly, lt scarlet and gold floated be- tore his vision, “I loathe the Da Capo, absolutely loathe it,” announced the duchess, getting briskly out as the car drew up before a portico outlined in small blue lights. “You'll see to Mr. Lode- ly, Freddy darling? ’Cos I have to ty ay find Biggles.” : ly held the door of the car and looked vaguely after her. “If you hate staying with me as Much .aé I hate having you stay,” said Mark, “we've get a lot in com- mon. Suppose we meet inside?” Freddy, released, bolted after the duchess and Mark took his time. By | inside perter, cloakroom attendant and page, he was eventually ‘seen’ into the club. ‘The atmosphere of Mrs. Jacobson’s party had grown more quarrelsome but more toler able, The gold-capped woman was whie- Dering to a beautiful young boy; she had dropped the sketches of Patsy Raoul under her chair. With care Mark retrieved them and sitting down outside the circle began to draw upon their backs. He drew his hostess, Constantia J. Jacobson; drew her wrangling, drew her eat- ing, and finally, from memory, drew her biandishing the Russian acro- bats. He had so far gone anob- served and when he had touched in her thickness of lips and nose he signalled to a waiter and had, a |. chair placed just behind his victim. | - When he was settled upon it, he touched her obese shoulder. “Ido wish you'd buy these studies of Miss Raoul,” he said as she | turned. “They're forty pounds each.” She laughed tie half-bitter, half- simpering laugh of the grossly rich. “You certainly have a nerve! And back in the theater.” “Ah!” smiled Mark. “But they’ve doubled their value since then.” He lifted one a little so that she could see what was upon its back. He saw a purplish red mount under her powder, mount to the roots of her hair; her black eyes. squinted for a second. “Ts that how I look to yon?” she mattered, “But you see, I happen to waut money and you happen to have it. And who are either of us to strug- gle against our fate?" @m arm round Mark. His crutch slipped perilously. He looked into ber fair face that had not in it one.

For this picture, the casting office had to assign seventy individual supporting roles, a number which is believed to establish a new Hol- lywood record. Every part, no matter, how brief in appearance before the camera }and microphone, was regarded as {or ranking importanee by Director Edmund Goulding, who exercised as great care in the selection of | players to fill the seventy charac- {terizations as though they were of Jeading prominence. Wide Variety of Parts These parts, usually assigned to “bit” players, included doormen, waiters, bartenders, pages, hotel guests, clerks, elevator men, tele- phone girls, maids, telegraph mes- sengers, policemen, merchants, salesmen and other characters, who, for perhaps only a moment, became important in the spectacu- lar drama enacted within the walls of the hostelry. The five starring roles in “Grand Hotel” are filled by Greta Garbo, John Barrymore, Joan Crawford, Wallace Beery and Lionel Barry- more. The cast of featured sup- porting players is headed by Lewis Stone and Jean Hersholt and in- cludes Robert MeWade, Purnell B. Pratt, Ferdinand Gottschalk, Ra- faela Ottiano, Morgan Wallace, Tully Kinnell and Edwin Maxwell.
