You remember I told you 1} erled over Earnest’s letter at the time, and smiled the other day when I reread it. Well, I smiled over Jeff's letter as I read it in my dressing room, and the other day when I came across it I suddenly felt my eyes smarting with tears— tears because I did not realize Jeff's worth from the first. I have never yet been able to explain, Margie, why I fell so desperately in love with Earnest Lawton. “I know now some of my infatu- ation was due to the fact that at college all girls talked a lot of thelr favorite actors, and attribut- ed to them all the manly virtues and manly beauty that could be| found outside of a ready-made} clothing advertisement.

I am/ sure I never did, and so when I met Earnest Lawton I promptly en- dowed him with all the virtues that could possibly come tied up in mas- culine human form. “Poor, dear old Jeff, on the con- trary, was without any romantic glamor. He was only the red- headed grocery boy who used to} deliver his father's wares at our/ gate, and even then, when he had | graduated from Yale and become a young writer who was being spoken of most glowingly by the magazine editors as ‘among those present,’ he was still the red-head- ed grocery boy to me. Do you know, up to that time and years after, I never took interest enough in Jeff's writings to read one of his stories “Margie, actors are the most ego- tistical of men and everybody knows all men are egotistical enough.
