Chapter One No Christmas Joy OYOUS Noel! The silver-laden words glittered through a plate lass pane, casting their brilliant gleam on the artfully fash- ioned floor beneath them. Like the shadow over pristine snow in some northland with cold winter moonlight upon it. “Very, very joyous, Noel!” a slender tall girl enveloped in es dark, downy mink whispered to’ herself. There was nothing of the preva- ents pre-Christmas joy in her soft- ly spoken comment. She was standing there, wide eyes of. the color of forget-me-nots fastened on the pixie contriving of some master window decorator. From behind tall shining pilasters that suggested the warmth of old ala-| 5! baster, an invisible fan. played .

But her thoughts were far back, to a shod- dy five-and-ten window in a small mining town—to a shabby little girl clutchin~ her ten-cent: piece and gazing raptly at the ornate dime collar she was buying for her mother’s Christmas. Some of the bitter-sweet ecstasy came back now, like a ghost playing with old ains. Noel pulled the expensive coat more tightly about her in a shiver- ing gesture. All Fifth Avenue with a thousand displays stretched be- fore her. In her French bag re- posed a roll of bills, but there was no one now to bring that antici- ;.patory thrill in Christmas shop- ping. No one who mattered very much, Glancing again at the exotic garment, Noel though “ll get it for Anit for her.” Not that Anita mattered so much either, but she was Douglas Swan- strom’s wife and Douglas wag the producer who had put the titithe at Noel Marchand in Broadway | Push oars i ic lights. Would, do it again. ’s perfect aise throngs brushed by “Now. Some stopped. to gla yat the window which held her atten- tion. More than one person turned back for a second glance at the ex- msively dressed girl who stood here, careless of the slushy dis- colored snow slopping around her trimly encased shoes. No one, certainly, could have . at the heavy dread in oel’s heart at the thought. of Christmas only a few days away. Nor the painful memories of other Aonely Christmases. This year there ‘was not even work to keep her oc. cupied. And when would the next stage part come? Three flops in a Tow, with only the mink coat and a dwindling savings account to show for the two successful sea- sons which had preceded them. ‘Through the crowded shop, Noel went leisurely to the French lin- erie room on an upper floor.

Noel laughed softly. “I was born on Christmas Eve and my mother heard the carols outside while they showed me to her.” Mrs. Marchand looked keenly at the beautiful girl. Dark wavy hair curled up under a pint-sized toque of mink, incredibly blue eyes bright under their thick, smoky lashes. Z “What a heavenly Yule gift for our mother, my dear.” Her voice ad a wistful note as she added, “I always wanted a daughter. But I’ve got a very handsome son,” pride and a note Noel couldn’t quite fathom taking hold of her words. Her tone had a pleasant mellow ring. “Wili you tell your mother I envy her you?” “I lost my mother several years ago.” Even now Noel couldn’t bear to say it. What sh. didn’t say was: “She was all I had—and we had Bane else.” Deliberately she the blurred picture back among the other hidden thoughts of those impoverished years. ‘Yoa Grace It’ i fad sorry.” There was awkward zympathyl in the other woman’s reply. Carefully cared-for hands fingered again the garments laid out before her. “Oh dear, they're so beautiful, I can’t choose,” she said to the saleswoman. “So I'll take them both!” While Noel waited for her change, she heard: “Mrs. Allison Marchand, Lancaster Hotel.” The saleswoman smiled with them over the incident of the names. The two customers who mignt have been mother and daughter started for the elevators together, and then Mrs. Marchand sug- gested: “Who knows but we may be re- lated. My husband had many dis- tant cousins around New York.” Noel never knew quite what it was that gave her the impulse to ak think not. My name's real not Marchand. I was born Ni Martin, but I’m in the theater and ay, | Pol ny y Gest at stage director gave Mar- “Oh!” Mrs. Marchand was ob- viously disappointed but she added ly, “You grace it, ps dear.” “You're sweet to say so, answered gratefully. von ae gents teal T'm a pilferer.” laughed then together and | li, talked of the problems of chogsing ico| dian for coe. people.

She wished that just once her mother could have had such a broadtail coat as Mrs. Marchand wore so carelessly. “I’m at the Lancaster and per= haps you could have tea with me tomorrow,” Mrs. Marchand was urging. “That's if you're not too busy then.” “May I telephone you: in ate morning?” Noel as! have to see poy, agent in the after. noon, but I'll try to arr: “I do hope you can,” te ic older + woman’s point ose om pefully om sistent. § faa ward to it very mut!
