I'm go- ing to free-lance—be a writer, Janet! Congratulate me!” Walter Stedman had cried as Janet came into their home after her rest at Hill Farms Inn. But the congratulations were not forthcoming. With her own po- sition gone, Janet could not frame words of delight and encouragement —not at that instant. But she kissed him a loving greeting and tried to throw all the loyalty and love she felt into her words as she held him off at arm’s length and said, “The best of good luck to you, dear! I'm with you to the last of my heart and the last wiggle of my mind—and the last —and all else I have in the world!"” Walt knew she was going to say “and the last dollar T have.” The mere thought of drawing upon her savings sickened him. The glow sud- denly left his face. “I hope never to need even all of my own savings,’” he said heavily. Most certainly I shall never touch a penny of yours, Girl, no matter how much love was back of it!" “I know, Waltie,”" she said miser- ably, “I only meant——" “Now listen, Jan,” said Walt, sitting down beside her. “Don’t you see that I've got to strike out if—if I am to keep you?" “But I don’t want to be can always make my own and I want to do it.” was unlikely that Walt meant “keep” as support.

You're too sensible a wom- | an to defy that he loves you and that he will do anything to win you.” i Janet rose. “That's not true!” she retorted with the swift indignation a woman always feels when a vague suspicion that it may be true assails | her.

I “No, dear heart, you would stick to me if I dragged you to starva- tion!” he said with a break in his voice. “I am the one who would sur- render to Roy Nicoli.

The children are delighted with the appearance of Kris Kringle, the pranks of the fairies and ap- pearance of characters that seem to { have stepped forth from the pages of many a well-read book. Older boys are taken back to the days of child- hood and fair-land days as well as entertained with an especially at- tractive program in which tuneful melodies and catchy music play an important part. There is nothing heavy in the plot but the antics of those. representing important roles in { the fairy realm are not overdone to an extent bringing a feeling of “flat- nes: i The program is all the more in- teresting hecause the various charac- ters portrayed are well known to the children as well as the grown-ups. Georgia Campbell makes a clever Jack Horner, the baker's apprentice, and her well-rendered musical selec- tions are generously applauded and add to the excellence of the program. Walter Wills, in the double role of Wondrous Wise, a Solomon in judg- ment, and King Bunn, is very good | and his work adds much to the har- monious production. Again Ralph Sipperly, this time in the role of the “Good TFairy,” quickly secures the approbation of old and young alike and shows what a “very fair fairy queen” should be like. Franklyn Smith, naturally, quick- 1v wins his way into the heart of the children for he portrays Santa him- self and. according to the verdict of one child, is “some Sant Lee Daly js “The Gingerbread Man,” a mere outline but in danger of being oblit- erated.” The production would not he complete without a Christmas tree on the stage and this detail is looked out for to the great delight of the voung people. The announcement that children will be remembered with presents at matinee perform- ances was sgreeted with applause. Al of the other Players appear to advantage and do their part well in making ‘‘The Gingerbread Man” .a prodiction remembered happily and one in which the prevent the glooms from even appearing on the stage.
