Of course. Dick might want chil-
dren. He probably would. Most
men did want them. Why not. since
they had none of the bother and
pain of having them?

They could go on living their lives
while the wives lost sleep and fresh-
ness caring for the children.

They could rush about. doing as
they pleased. For their women

She set her lovely mouth

"I had different ideas when I was

"I thought a woman ought to help

There he stood down on the moonlit

threw up the window.

stage whisper. "Look here. I want to
kiss you. . . . I've been thinking
about you all evening during that
doggoned bachelor dinner . -. ."

With a bang. Gloria shut the win-
dow, and went back to bed.‘
She lay there waiting for the
sound of Dick's departing roadster.
But there was no sound anywhere
except the lonesome shriek of a
train in the distance.
At last she got up and looked out
of the window. Dick hadn't moved.
He was still waiting for his kiss.
Gloria opened the window.
"Why in the world don't you go‘
home?" she asked crossly.
Dick didn't answer at once. He
stood twirling his hat in his hands.
"0h. have a heart. Glory." he said
finally. “Come on down to the front
door for just a minute. . . . I must
kiss you, dear! Think. it's our wed-
ding day."
Gloria hesitated. After' all. where
was the harm in one little kiss in
the dead of night? In another
twelve hours they would be man
and wife.

She laughed almost scornfully.
Dick made no answer. He sat
down and picked up a book. only
to put it down. He filled his pipe
and laid it unlighted on the dress-
er.
"Come here. restless soul. I want
to talk to you.” Gloria held out to
him a slim hand. “Do you know. it's
awfully cold out doors? I nearly
froze yesterday. I need a coat. I'd

one in that little shop down the
street. . ."
Her voice trailed off. The hair-

was putting her iron and brushes
away in a little black bag. Glory

The moment the door had closed
behind her. Dick came across the
room. He put his hands under
Gloria's elbows. holding her away
from him.
"Look here. please don't have
people hanging around here all the
time.” he said. “You're beautiful

Gloria’s voice rose in a scream.
Then she burst into wild sobbing
and ran upstairs.
She threw herself on the bed in

come to her. She wanted him to

of Dick standing at the foot of the

hands. Then she felt the sting of

It choked and blinded her. But
she went on laughing and crying.
She tried to stop. She couldn't stop!

Presently she heard the low rum-

windows. . . And the next thing she
knew it was broad daylight. She
lay in her own bed. very tired and

hungry.
"What's happened?" she asked
herself. For she felt blue and un-

hanging over her. Then she remem-

She turned and ran back to her
room.
"Dick!” she called sottly from the
window. He came out front the
shadow of the porch.
"Darling, I'm not coining down,"
Gloria said. “I just can't. It wouldn't
be right. You shouldn't have asked
me to do such a horrid thing!"
Without answering. Dick crossed
the lawn and started his car.
Gloria lay in bed listening to the
sound of it. She heard it for a long
time. and she knew that Dick had
not.gone home. but farther out
on West avenue. to take one last
look at the house he had built. for
her.

ly. "It's a Jacket of Siberian squir-

She laced her fingers at the back
of his neck. and held her face up to
his. "Say you‘ll get it for me." she
said.
Without a word Dick nodded and
turned away. He picked up his pipe
and his book.
“I'm going down to the men's
lounge for a while." he said shortly.
"I'll meet you at the elevator. at

from her honeymoon wearing a
costly fur coat. fragrant with scent.
They went to dinner that first
night with Dick's father and moth-

lather. and he held a shaving brush.
"Dick Gregory why did you throw

Gloria asked. Dick grinned
'Bccause I thought you had hys-

cheerfully answered. “I went out
and got Doc Seymour, and he gave
you some pills to put you to sleep.

or laughing. I‘ll admit that the
laughing got my goat."
"Well. don‘t you ever dare to
throw one drop of water at me ever
again. no matter what I do." Gloria
said solemnly. "or I'll walk rght out
of this house and never come back.

Instantly he was beside her bed
holding her close. stroking her per-
fumed hair.
"Darling. I was a brute to do it.

HIT AT REGENT

Audience Thrills With
Excitement As Mys-
tery Plot Unfolde—
Good Cast in Play

Manager David Ester-son scored
another hit with a legitimate pro-
duction last night when a capacity
audience at the Regent Theater was
thrilled by "The Cat and the Ca—
nary."
Acted by a first rate cast, this
hair-raiser. that after four years of
showing. seems to be going better
than ever, gripped those present. As
the plot unfolded. the tension in the
audience grew greater. Mysterious
hands came forth out of the dark-
ness. secret panels slid aside and
jewels disappeared: and. before the
final curtain. the audience was so on
edge that the mere opening of a.
deer led the screams from many wo-
men present.
Those who had seen the play be-
fore were thrilled again. and those
who went for the first time agreed
that this play. by John Willard. is
the cree'piest hair-raiser ever 'pro-
duced.
Audiences. seemingly. have honor.
for althOugh millions of people must
have seen this play during the thou-
sands of performances. no one was
heard divulging the real secret of
how the play ends. The management
asks that this be kept a secret. and
to conform, no complete description
can be given in print.
The plot is based upon the read-
ing of a will. which makes Annabelle
West, played by Louise Price. the
heiress of an estate. including an old
house in which the action is laid. A
codicil says, however. that should the
heir be proved of unsound mind. the
estate goes to one of the other six
clrs. From then on. things begin
to happen. and the spooky situations.
the thrills and screammroducing ac-
tion, gives the audience something
with a real “kick" in it.

The cast last night was uniformly
good. “Mammy" Pleasant. played by
Mary Deihl. was a fine rendition.
The burly Harry Blythe was well
portrayed by Craig Neslo. and Wal-
ton Bichards. as the nervous young
hero. who investigates dark cham-
bers. gave a fine characterization.
