Dick borrows Maggie, his moth- er's mald, to teach Glorla to cook. But Gloria refuses to learn. Glorla once loved, comes to see her, Dick sees him leave the house, And Gloria tells her husband that Way- burn was only an interior decorator, Dick is home i1l for a few days. While he and Miss Briggs, his sec- retary, are at work in his room, Gloria makes plans for a house« warming. She invites Wayburn, When Dick sees the'actor he recog- nizes In him the man who had left his house a few days before. He is sure Gloria lied to him, When Gloria sees Wayburn kiss- ing Myra Gail, a married woman, she recklessly drinks too -much. She faints away in the arms of Dr. John Seymour, whose wife, May, s in love with Jim Carewe. Dick car« ries her up to bed. Lola Hough spolls the party when she “bawls out” Bill, her husband, for making love to May Seymour. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY Glory listened to Lola and Dick go downstairs together, | Then, in a little while, she heard | Bill's voice calling:to her from the | lower hall. “Nighty-night, Glory!” he bawled at the top of his lungs, “Sorry Lola crabbed your party!" | Glory laughed. e didn't crab it . every- body ought to have a hot time at a house-warming, anywa ehe called. “Good night, old timer! . | Good night, Lola - Then she heard the sound of Bill's wheezy old car backing Stanley Wayburn, an actor whom | mm © 1023 NEA SIRVICE INC in her most dignified manner, “Mr, Dick's mother glves dinner parties, but her house never looks like this when they're over, let me tell you! .+ . .8he knows how to entertain!” .. Maggie picked up her coat, hat and traveling bag, just as Dick came into the kitchen, “Wait a minute, Maggle,” he sald, quietly attempting to take the bag from her hand “No, Mr. Dick,” replied Maggle, trying to pull away from him. "I am going. T wlill not stay in this house another night.” “If you've really made up your mind to go back to Mother's house I'll drive you over,” Dick sald, “You can't go walking around the town at this hour of night alone." He started to go back into the hall for his hat and coat, But Gloria ed his way. threw her arms across the door. “Dick Gregory, you must be | crazy!” ehe said. “Here's this wom- | an leaving me at a moment's no- tice — and you actually upholding her in what she's doing to me!” Dick stooped and kissed his angry little wife, Then he gently pushed her out of his 3 “Run upstairs, Littlest!" he sald quietly. “Don't be afraid here by yourself, . ..
