Adele Garrison's New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE J’ ultra-modern young women, do ex- aetly as they please, but the old girl is still firmly planted in country circles, and nowhere does she thrive more than in the lttle summer resort of Windy Cave, eighteen miles from here. “Mr. Graham has won fame in two directions.

Buf day before yes- terday something went wrong with the airboat. Perhaps Dicky's atten- tlon was distracted from hix controls ——and, who conld blame him? At any rate, there was an unexpected nose dive, a forced landing in a swamp, and a perilous and most un- comfortable tramp back to civiliza- tion for the unlucky aviator and his companion. i “Drenched, brulsed and exhausted, they reached Windy Cave yesterday morning after twenty-four hours of wandering, and the rocking chair brigade learned the identity of ‘Graham, and remembered at the same moment that the gallant Dicky has a Why Dicky Was Foreed to Telegraph For Madge 1 falrly snatehed the newspapers from Lillian's hands and fumbled them over without finding the thing I sought.

After JOHN, the son, and ALICE, the daughter, have left for school, JOHN BARRETT, the husband and father, abruptly informs his wife, ANITA, that he “is leaving for good." GO ON WITH THE STORY. At her husband's grim announce- ment, Anita Barrett stopped and listened withont turning. The sight of her studiedly indifferent back made the strain of Barrett's self-control the greater. “We've been married 19 years, Ani- ta,”” he spoke laboredly, as though breath came hard. “Nobody can say we haven't given our marriage a fair trial. “Trial!" uinine fancy. . The word caught his sat- “And a trial it has been for years now . .. It's too late to discuss who's the gullty one. Besides, iU's not all on one side. 1'll take my share and more if necessary, just so it comes to‘an'end.” He paused but his wife made no reply except a slight movement as if to leave the room. “When two people,” Barrett re- sumed bitterly, “get so it hurts just 1o be in the same room-—when chil- ,dren get so that they hate their fa- ther—when all one can think of is ‘How long, Oh, Lord, how long!'— why, no civilized beings dare say they shall hold on till death frees them." Still she made no answer. “Well, I can't endure it another day,"” he went on. “I hope’we can get through this business with the least hurt possible. God knows the least is bad enough. But hurt or not, it must be settled—now!" He stopped on the note of deflance and determination, as one who expects opposition. Anita made a despairing motion of her head, looked down at her wadded handkerchief and the white knuckles that closed over it. Then she turned, |ashen, composed for the moment, lips bitten. “Very well, John, Don't expect me to cling, to plead, to try to stop you.

If one turned, they all ‘turned. If one stopped, they all stopped. If one started, they all started. Unusually, when they went to the pond for a swim they marched in single flle, one behind another—ex- cept the leagpr. of course. They wer® very proud their S0 they were greatly pleased when anybody mentioned it. “What beautiful marching!” a voice called out one day when they were half way to the pond. The geese couldn't see who had spoken. But they liked the remark, all the same. The leader craned her neck at a patch of tall grass which was wav- ing slightly. And promptly all her niates craned their necks likewise. Catching a glimpse of a long, sharp, red face amidst the grass, the leader paused in her march. “Go on! Go on!" hissed the goose that was next behind her. “Don't stop marching! That pleasant stranger wants to watch us. He knows a fine sight when he sees one,” The leader walked on. And then the pleasant stranger, who was Tom- my Fox himself, cried. “Wait a mo- ment, ladies! Your marching is almost perfect, But I'd like to make just one little suggestion.” \ “What's that?" the him. ““What's that?" quired. “It's this,”” said Tommy Fox. “Let the leader walk in the rear when you'te going away from home. When you turn around and come back again she'll be at the head of the proces- sion, where everybody can see her when you enter the barnvard.” He still kept himself hidden as much as he could, for. he didn’t want to fright- en the geese. of leader asked all her mates in- Then he crept up and looked closely at the tip of Tommyy tail The stupld geese agreed that his plan was a good one. But they had some trouble when they tried it. When the leader started to walk back to her place behind the rest, all her friends wanted to follow her. soon found themselves in a terrible tangle. But with Tommy Fox's help they were all ready, at last, to move on again. “This i& just a practice march,” Tommy 1ox told them. “Don't go to the pond now. March across the meadow, towards the mountain. There was some grumbling over that. Most of the geese wanted their swim as soon as they could get it. But the leader hissed at them and sald that their swim conld walt. Tt wasn't always that they had such a pleasant | person to admire their marching, and | help them. So away they waddled.

Half way to the woods the leader said in a low voice to Tommy Fox, "1 want to turn back now. But if 1 turn, the rest won't know what I'm doing. They won't see me, What shall T de?” “Turn right around!" Tommy told her. “T'Il help you. T'll take care of the otherse.” And he flung himself down in the grass, so that the leader wonldn't see how big he was and be afraid of him.

In a short time he would pick up Tommy's trail. And Tommy Fox headed down the valley, away from the rabbit, away from old dog Spot, away from all the Beese.

Henry B, Walthall, Milton 8ills and Claire Windsor hold the leads in a plot that calls for an unysually large cast of players, "One Clear Call,” adapted from Frances Nimmo Gree g 's story, marks the latest of a series of succesaful productions that John Stah! has made for Associated First National Pictures, Inc., among the former ones being "The Child Thou Gavest Me" and "The Sobg of Life." The Keith vaudeville on the same bill is a selected show of merit for the “I'nil Jarnival” and includes some very fine talent. Heading the blill is Gus King and his "Melody Land,” a rare treat in the musical line, De Witt and Robinson offer “This and That,” a claver skit that embraces songs, dances, talk and piano playing: John Le Claire who has the distinction of being the oldest active vaudeville per- former, does a juggling novelty that will make any audience sit up and take notice; and Walmsley and Keat- Ing, a very fine comedy couple offer “Comicalities of Life,” and will keep everyone in hearty laughter while they held the stage.
