She and David were having lunch- eon in the Chinese Room with the stage producer. David had sat by quietly while Swanstrom told Noel casually that the play he was considering might be started before the holidays. “The lead’s just suited to you,” was the way he told her she would be in it. In the sudden wave of hope that filled her as she heard his calmly uttered remark, Noel forgot every- thing else—loneliness, the coming Christmas, everything but the pos- sibility that she might be working “Douglas, you don’t know what it means to me. The last two en- gagements were such disaster.” Swanstrom sipped his coffee and Telaxed in his chair. He smiled at David, wfo was being quiet-on his side of Noel. “Now don’t get too excited, Noel,” ne suggested. “It all de- pends on Dixon. He has to rewrite the third act and you know how unreliable that self-estimated Vee is. He'll promise anything. jut he’s sworn he'll have the re- vised script by Monday.” “Til feel like poisoning him if he doesn’t,” Noel vehemently ex- claimed. She looked closely at Swanstrom as she asked slowly, “But I thought you said there was no possibility of getting the back- ing until after the holidays?” Swanstrom chuckled and looked over at David. “Well, maybe a Christmas angel came early this year, dear,” was the only informa- tion he offered. Noel gazed searchingly at David. Could David be planning an ange role—and why? “It couldn’t by any chance be you in the role of play angel, could it, David?” Norris’ face flushed. He sent a furtive glance to Swanstrom. “Whatever would make you think of such a thing?” was al] that he answered. They talked about casting and sets and the possibility of the right theater. “I was crazy about the part of Gilda when I read the first draft,” Noel said it like a prayer. “And I’m sure with the revisions you mention it's bound to go over." “Only time and the public can tell about that,” was the way Swanstrom prt it. It was only after Swanstrom had left them, and Noel told David she was meeting Mrs. Marchand and her son to shop for the gifts they would have for the Christmas par- ty, David remarked: “But, Noel, if the plans for the play go through you won't be able to visit them.” “That's true,” Noel’s voice came slowly, reluctantly. “But the play's more importart than anything else in the world—you know that, Da- vid. Though I really would hate to miss that beautiful party.” | ‘abvot' or Waiting? | words, “I’m so sorry about your mother—and I wish you could stir by little enthusiasm about the plan.” As they ile ey at the handker- chief counter, Noel remarked, “I'll miss you both when you go home tomorrow.” Allan pulled her arm playfully. “But you'll be coming up soon, don’t forget that.” They dashed through the sho; examining and rejecting dozens o! things for the guests they had nev- er seen. “A muffler’s the thing for Archie, the Mouse,” Allan decided. “I re- member he was always so cold.” ‘They chose a warm woolen scarf with blue figures in it and then de- cided -that men always needed scarfs, so they got a gayer gray and white one for the jobless young architect, Tommy. “I wonder what Mrs. Barton’s like,” Noel conjectured. “I've an idea she’s so tiny.” Allan threw back his head and laughed. “You obvioi haven't met too many navy widows,” he said. “My guess is she’s buxom.” They discussed the hundred pos- sibilities of their prospective (ae preferences and Allan ught more than Noel thought he should. Handkerchiefs, a bag for Mrs. Barton—and even perfume for the two younger girls. “We'll have a Christmas tree?” Noel asked hopefully. “Of course.

So they fought their way through the crowds round every counter. “We'll have to carry these,” Noel reminded him as Al- lan rounded up dozens of gayl; colored balls and miles of tinsel. And just when they thought they had enough for ten trees, Allan spied some pewsing silver stars and they had to go back for them, Both pairs of arms were laden with the light, bulky boxes. By the time Allan had signaled a taxi and got them both in it, one of his rolls of tinsel had become unwrapped and he was crauging a strand of the glistening stuff after him. They sank back into the com- fortable seat of the cab. “We need some reviving after this exploit,” Allan announced, and he directed the driver to the Star Club. People turned after them and smiled as they made their way toa table in the well-filled cocktail room. Allan wouldn’t check the packages. “They’d get smashed,” he insisted. “This has been lovely, Allan,” Noe] told him softly as they sipped a Martini. “If it hadn’t been for meeting your mother, I'd have missed all this.” Her laugh trickled over the room like light gay mu- sic. “Now I'm full of Christmas cheer.” “Well, I've never seen Mother so excited about Christmas, either,” Allan admitted. “She swears it was her guardian angel sent you to her.” Allan grinned at Noel as he added, “You should hear her sing- ing your praises—it might make you eited.” H “he's the angel, Allan.” Noel’s eyes Were misty. “You can’t realize VID didn’t apswer her, They left the Chinese Room ahd as they walked through the lobby, David said in what he tried io make a casual vorce: “Before hee joined us, Swan- strom asked me when we were get- ting married.” He looked down on the flushed face of the girl beside | him. “I'd like to be able to tell him tomorrow, carling.” He bent his head down to her as he said it. “David, please, not now—there’s 80 much else to worry about. Wait until after things are more set- tled for me.” “T've been doing quite a lot of waiting, you know.” David’s voice was tinged with bitterness. Noel walked on and as they ap- qreeched the taxi line he seeme seeing a lot of that mother and son, aren’t you, Noel?” “But they’re leaving tomorrow,” | Noel protested. “And we've so much to do before they go.” She the play, or that I might miss Pare ge tg yo Noel saw what knowing her has meant to | me these days.’ | “Oh, I say nice things about you, too—” Allan started.
