The
New Girl
She Found a Friend
In Need
By CLARISSA MACKIE
The orchestra walled into silence as
. the curtain dropped for the last time.
t The audience rustled and chattered
it and elbowed its way out amid the bang
of chairs.
Behind the scenes the chorus girls
e were sleepily discarding their gorgeous
d raiment and slipping into commnonplace
street clothes. By ones andI twos and
threes they disappeared down the nar
row, dimly lighted hall that led to the
street.
Last of all went Anne Shaw. a new
girl with dragging feet. She was tired
and homesick and hungry, and the stage
manager had reprimanded her for the
listless manner of her dancing. She
would not receive her first week's sal
ary for five long days, and her wretch
edly shabby little purse was empty. A
dreary hall bedroom at the top of three
flights confronted her.
How she hated it all! But it was too
late now to retreat from the position
she had taken in defiance of the wishes
of her family. She was proud and had
assured them that she would come
back to them a great actress. They
would wait and see.
This position in the chorus of a new
musical comedy wais the best she could
do after several weeks of hard rehears
als, during' which time she spent the
money she had managed to save from
her salary as a bookkeeper in a down
town warehouse.
When she opened the outer door the
fresh air revived her drooling spirits,
while at the sanme time it unfortunately
sharpened her healthy young appetite.

rollillg or thl e iasphll5lt, while the
lighted :.tr ec swept lepast theln oil el
1her1 side like s.Iitr 111.1s of I llI,.
"I'm afraid you've made a mistake,"
said the new girl hurriedly.

a unist of dusky hair framing a small
featured, upensive or'al, out of which
Sshone a pairh of soft black eyes. As he
drew hack she dropped the white chif
fnll vel over her fau0 e againl.
"I thollght you were Margery Sare,"
he said lupatientl y.
"I'm sorry, but you did not give nme
a chance to explain." she said in herl
low. sweet v'ole. "1 think Miss Sare
went hom3e at once. Something was
said about a telegram containing had
news. If you will set me down"
"Of course I will take you home," he
said courteously. "Where to?"
She namled a street given over to
theatricll boardillg houses. "I would
rather walk, if you please. I-I have
an erraild."
"At this time of night? Something to
eat. You girls are always hungry."
tie laughed good naturedly.
"I'll get out here. right here, please!"
i she cried eagerly.
He signaled the cltluffeur to stop,
but something in her tone caused him
to follow her glance to where three
gilded balls swung over a lighted en
trance. IIe looked at her gloved hand
clasping ia small locket suspended from
a chain about her neck.
"You'll hllve somle supper with me
first," he said almost roughly. "I
know II quiet little IhIce. It's respect
able enough, don't yon worry. where
we can get solmethilng to eat. and, by
Jove, I'm ravenous myself!"
"But." began Anue when his signal
to the man to drive on cut her words
short.
"That's all right. Of course you
don't recognize me. When you do
you'll not object to eating a bite with
me now that Miss Sare has failed to
keep her appointment with me."
Somethlng very like a sigh of relief
preceded her murmured thanks. Pres.
ently they found themselves seated at
opposite sides of a small table In a de
serted little restaurant far from the
pnnlar eating district.
The girl sat with drooping head
studying the menu. Her cheeks show
ed crimson through the gauze veil that
was wrapped about her hat. The man.
big and handsome, with a youthful.
alert air about him that belled !Ils mid.
die aged gray hair, watched her keen
ly, knowing all the while that she wa:
shy and ill at ease and that her in
stinctive frugality kept her eyes away
from the higher priced articles of food.
"I will order if you will permit tue."
he said. gently.
as "If you will, please." she said grate
e. fully, not lifting her eyes.
td He ordered a steak with its hearty
i accompaniments and a pot of tea.
which was obviously not for himself.
Is "I'm not-I've never been out to sllp.
per like this before." said the girl. with
t sudden emphasis, her eyes still on the
'a irinted card in her hand.
d "Of course not. Anybody wotlld
r- know that." he returned, with a mel
ee low little laugh that ended abruptly.
"The same old story. I suppose-tired of
the village life and hoping to win fame
and fortune on the stage."
Anne shook her head slowly, and he
e could see the quiver of her red lips.
e "Then I'll bet you're the stage struck
e daughter of a millionaire. and now
I- you're sorry because you ran away
f- from home. where they have three
square imeals a day even if you have to
e eat 'enl off gold plate and have a butler
hanging arounld your chali."
" 'You are all wrong." she said, with a
nole of impatience in her voice,
"There is nothing romantic about it
1 whatever. It's all horribly sordid. I've
lived in New York all my life. and I've
worked in an office for three years.
SMy father is a butcher, and I have a
Ssister and a mother, the dearest in the
world." Her voice shook dangerously.
"I've always had plenty to eat and ev
erything comfortable to wear. We live
in a flat, blt everything was so deadly i
commonplace ald dull I thought things I
on the stage would be different It a
looks so fronl the front."
"Of course it does. That's what we
aim to make it. You've been foolish.
but you're mighty lucky to get back
your good senste before it's too late.
if your father is at bullther you needn't
pine to be a theatricali sla' or even the
daughter of a Itillionaire, because at
the present high price of meatt you
canl onttop 'rut till!" 1~t' laughed
heartily at his own joke. and Anne
stmiled faintly.
"Eat yonr supper, quick now. he

"(itt the east side. Iint I cotldn't

For the first Itiaie since their en

Be Alive to the Greatness
of Your Own Country
"See America FirSt"
Take a vacation this summer-get away from the daily grind-two weeks or two
months can be profitably spent in Glacier National Park, Uncle Sam's newest
national playground in Northwestern Montana. You will get keen enjoyment out
of a tour through this wonderful region of scenic beauty. It is a big, bold, free,
outdoor country- it will invigorate you--put new blood in your veins.
Vacations $1.00 to $5.00 per Day in
Glacier National Park
The Great Northern Railway has done everything possible for the comfort of the
tourist and vacationist in Glacier National Park-a new hotel, costing over $100,000
has been erected at Glacier Park Station, the eastern gateway to the Park-hotels
throughout the Park afford easy journeying during the day-automobile roads have
been constructed in different sections of the Park and many other improvements
have been made.
There are four different modes of conveyance at the disposal of the tourist.
Automobiles and four-horse stages will be in operation the coming season between
certain points. In addition to the popular horseback tours, walking tours can also be
conveniently made if desired as the distance between camps is comparatively short.
Those desiring to make complete tours of Glacier National Park can, if they de
sire, make use of every form of conveyance described above, traveling afoot be
tween certain points, using the stage where desired, the
automobiles and horses, each of which presents its peculiar "See America First"
attractions.
Write for detailed information and descriptive literature
describing these different tours, etc. _e
