Jyf- PLAIDICY PUDTON , r " igT’r' 1 1 SEQUEL FLAPPER’WIFE" ©NEA Maj’s first impulse was to turn and run before the shameless pair on the platform could look up and see her. But the sight of them there, laced in each other’s arms, held her to the spot in staring astonishment. . . . Why, they never had even seen efcch other until two hours ago! Yet here they stood now, as Antony and Cleopatra might hftive stood to gether, with the man’s head bent to the woman’s straw-colored one his mouth pressed down upon hers! The train rushed past a group of Mexican workmen who waved their hats an I jeered at the sight of this petting party. Neither Dan nor (foldie Gay so much as stirred. They seemed to be deaf and blind to ev erything on earth but themeelves. A spasm of disgust twisted .May’ ' face. “How sickening!” she said t > herself. ‘‘They can’t possibly earc a rap for each other! They’re just making love for the sake of a cheap | little thrill. . .” Heavens! what was the world coming to if people kept on be having in this free-and-easy way? The petting party had already taken the place of honest courtship. • In the old days a man had ‘‘ken; company” with a girl, had finally asked her to marry him. and then had kissed her to seal the bargain! But nowadays, a man kissed a girl the first time he met her, kept righ on kissing her so long as ho want 'd to. . . and later, if he wanted to, he asked her to many him. Mayi. • Love was no longer the tender and romantic thing of which pool, had sung. . . of which lovers had whispered to their ladies at twiligo! in hushed gardens. Troubadours no longer stood be low ivy-hung balconies to serenade their sweethearts. Today knights ot the whiskey flask and the Ford car honked their horns loudly to call their “cuties” forth to drive to the nearest cabaret. Love,, these days, thought May, was a farce. . . Then a sudden memory flashed ■ar <■ ■ V •k.-Y v, JH -J- -7 Baby’s Fretting Is Seldom Due To Badness Baby's freiling is nature's en'y w. y of warning th it ■ 'iiv l . hi" ; is wrong. It may hr Colli.

Hadn’t 1 bo, her tell’, made a Caree ol love when she had promised to man v Herbert Waterbury because she thought he was rich?. . . Hadn’t she, hersc-L'. been only looking for a cheap little thrill when site mid let young Jack Darnley kiss her under the stars ot Atlantic Citv?. . .Os epurse sh" had! So, who was she to sit in judg ment on Dan Sprague? He was only doing what men had done since the beginning of time . . .kissed and ridden away. It was the nature of men to do that, careless brutes that they were! At that instant Dan raised hi. eyes and saw her watching him. A\ ithout any show of shame or sur prise he flashed Lis ivory smile :.f her, quite, as if it were the most ordinary thing jn the world to be caught kissing a blond ined movie actress whom you had just ’..i t. I Then he shoved Goldie gently out of his arms, said something to her out <rf the coiner of his mouth, ami came toward May, smiling his en gaging smile as he came. ’’Were you looking for mo?” ho asked cheerfully, as he straighten ed his rumpled necktie. “’Wily, yes, I was,” May answered and her I-should-worry smile was every nit as radiant as his own. ”1 was looking ter you to tell you I’ve been thinking over vour offer of marriage,” she dent, “and I’ve decided I don't want you. Wouldn't have you for a gift. Too bad, isn’t it?” She laughed aloud, a little devil of malice in her eyes. Then, as Dan said nothing, riio added: “Possibly you’ve forgotten that you did ask me to marry yon. about an hour ago! Just before you fell for this blond who seems to be the newest 'only-woman-I-ever-loved m your young life!” As if she divined that Mav wrs I talking about her, Goldid at this mo ! ment came swaying into the car and j stood at Dan’s elbow, looking „up it 1 him with eye: of childlike innocence. ’ I hep lie calmly lit a cigaret, and I j moked it, blowing teh smoke from • I her rouged nostrils. . I “i do remember, now that you re ' mind me of it,” Dan said coldly. . ■ “But to tell the truth, it did slip my : 1 mind for a minute." His tone was impudent, and May’s slow-gathering anger flared up sud i denly. I'■ “1 hope you realize that what you , i do doesn’t mean a thing in my life, i Dan Sprague!” she cried. “I | wouldn’t care if you kissed every • actress in America! But what fills I me with fury is that you can treat ; Carlotta this way!” “Which way?” Dan asked inso lently. “I'm sure it’s my own busi ness if I chat with a young woman for ten or fifteen minutes. . . .” “Yes, and besides, we hunted all over for your and couldn’t, find you,’ Goldie Gay fibbed, still with that babyish look in her eyes. “We hunt ed all over th.e station. . . .Where I were you?” At that May laughed again. “Well,” she said with cruel sweet : ness, “if it’ll be any satisfaction to to you to know it I was with Lemuel Fishbacl:, and he's just of fered to star me!” That, of course, was not strictly true. Fishback had nut offered to star her in his films, but only to I : 1 V 1 1 Free Voting Coupon IN THE TIMES-RECORDER “EVERYBODY WINS” GRAND GIFT CAMPAIGN GOOD FOR 100 VOTES I hereby cast 100 FREE VOTES to the credit of Miss, Mr. or Mrs: Address This coupon, neatly clipped opt, with name and address of the candidate, and mailed or delivered to the Cam paign Department of The Times-Recorder, Americus, Ga., will count as 100 FREE VOTES.

But May wanted to teach ] Goldie Gay not to try to steal a man I from under her nose again, so she nodded emphatically when Gold, ■ i echoed: , I “He’s offered to star you?” “Yes, he’s on his way to location 1 out beyond Los Altos now,” she said ’ “And I’m going out there tomor- I row!” Goldie’s'face brightened. “Why that’s where I’m going!” she cried "I didnjt know Fishback was film ing the ‘Rose of Spain!’ A director I used to wor k for gave me a little part in it. . . So it’s Fishback’.il film, huh? They say he has his finger in every pie!” As if she was filled with a sud den need for action, Goldie took out her lipstick and began to color her lips a violent red with the little longue of rouge. “Fishback‘’s film, huh!” she re peated, with the slow smile of Giaeonda on her face. “And he gave you the lend part in it? I don’t think!” She looked defiantly at May. “Serena ‘Smith,” she said, naming a famous star, “has the part. She’d tear Fishback’s hair out by the roots if ho starred anyone but her in this Spanish show! If you think you’ve got the inside track with Fishhack, dearie, lot mo tell you you’re standing on the wrong foot!’ And she tossed her lipstick into ti> f-. bag and snapped it shut with as much spirit as if she had been snapping May’s head off. She glared nodding, for a minute or two and then pushed past Dan. . , and loft him and May facing each other. May tossed her head; "Well, Fishback offered mo what he said was the best part in his film. . . the part of a mediaeval duchess,” she said defensively. ‘And you know, yourself, Dan that the star isn’t, the whole show any more ■ on the screen. . . But lot’s not talk . about that. 1 want to ask yon I something, and I want you to answer ( mo fairly.” She drew a long breath and faced hiTn. “Dan, don’t you think you ought to marry Carlotta?. . . Here you ’ are, going to see her again, going to make her think you’re crazy about ’ her. . .and you’re breaking her ■ heart.” “But I’m not going to see her. I’m going to see a man who’s in on my oil deal with me,” Dan informed r her. “Os course, I may see Carlotta . now and then during the winter. . . , but that’s all.” ’ May said nothing, only shrugged her expressive shoulders. “How do you happen to be going • to see her? You said you were go- • ing to spend the winter in Europe i Dan asked then. “And if you have all the money you’re supposed to have, how does it happen you’re around begging Lemuel Fishback for a job in the movies? You must know it’s a rotten job.” “I haven’t any money.” May’s lips curled a little. “Your friend Mr. Waterbury, saw to it that. 1 haven’t a cent left in the world. . . As you probably know.” . "Why do you say that I probably know about it?” Dan asked. “I’w told you I don’t hear from Water bury.” "And I’m telling you that! know you do!" May said sharply. “Car- | lotta told me that you and Tfe ai’ ■ I both croooks. . . that you work to-’ i gether to fleece people!, . . And I anyway, 1 know, myself that you’re i crooked without her telling me!” Her pupils dilated with anger and i her eyes met Dan Sprague's without I a sign of fear. “1 know you’re crooked about money because you’re not on the square with women,” she said slow ly, with ice in her voice. “I’ve nev er known a man who was crooked with women w'ho was on the level with men! “For instance, you ought to marry ! Carlotta. But you don’t-! Instead you ask me to marry you because you think I have a lot of money. But in the.meantime, you can’t keep your hands'off any woman who hap pens to be around—this little movie actress, for instance!. . , There’s nothing straight or honest about you.” - < * “Well,” Dan commented dryly when she had finished, ‘Well. . . well. . . well, we’re going to have a pleasant winter, living in the same town together, you and I, I can see that? 5 « (To Be Continued) WOMAN'S BACK STOPPED ACHING $ I Suffered Three Years.
