Thanks for telling me about it, Doll. You meant well, Don't worry about my dragging you into it. And don’t tell Dot Faxon's crowd.” Dolly turned wide eyes on her friends. “Why, Sib!" she reproached gently, “don’t you know you can trust me? I'm awfully fond of Val—really.

The girls at school used to say it sounded exactly like a movie star's. And I don't mean to brag. But, honestly, I DO take the best pictures. They flatter me outra- geously. Everyone says I photo- graph like Billy Dove.” “My dear,” he protested, “you'll make poor Billy look like a washout.” “Oh, Darl!

I'm off her for life. I hope she has lumps in her mashed potatoes.” “Oh, Darl, don’t joke. about her.” “That's all there is, old dear. The righteous Sybil smelled my known breath one night, and left me flat. Most outrageous thing ever happened to a man.” He reached for her glass, and his fingers found her wrist. Dull red suffused his face, and his eyes burned with an unholy fire. * “Val, I never wanted a so much in all my lif “How about Sybil “The devil with A girl in a crimson skating suit pelted cotton snowballs.
