SLACKS

Socially and satorially, slacks are I must. A lot of men wear slacks and jackets to business in the sum- mer . . . and stay with them for almost every other summer occas- ion. They give you a casual, jaunty feeling you'll enjoy. You'll like these especially for their fine quality and special features . . .. . such as. the ”Laste1.e" waistband which does not require a belt-

The "Sltters” slack with the ox- panding waistband-saddle stitch-

ed seams-raised seams and lap y. seams -- Gabardines - flannels - ll worsteds and white sergcs.

They met that evening as ar- ranged. Never to Robin's eyes had she appeared more beautiful or more completely at her case. Her attitude gave him courage to ex- press what was in his mind.

"You look too wonderful to be real, Laurette." he said. "My dear. it I could paint you as I see You now!"

iwhy not, Robin?" she answered lightly. "One day?"

He thrilled aq he touched her arm in delighted response.

They were seated in the sixth row or the stalls. Laurette suddenly ex- claimed aiii clutched Robirrs arm lie looked at her in astonishment. She was staring at the stage box near them on their left.

"Robin. look!" she whispered, her voice agitated.

He followed the direction oi her gaze. A man, alone, had entered the box and was deliberately ar- ranging his seat. Robin caught sight or his face before the man sat back, withdrawing his seat into the corner behind the side oi the box. It was Peter Lessing.

INSTALMENT TWENTY-ONE

Behind the scenes at the Pyr- rhic Theater there was much ex- cited volubility. A hare hall-hour beiore the first curtain the coin- pany had learned that the show was to close down alter the per- formance that night.

The news had come as a posi- tive bombshell. There had been no previous hint or warning of it, and in the dressing-rooms the ill tid- ings were aggrievedly discussed.

The majority or the company would now probably be compelled to return to America at once.

Barbara van Buren remained aloof from all discussion. Alone in her dressing-room. made up for her first entrance, she sat re- llecting on the unexpected develop- ment. She felt bitterly hurt that news ot it had reached her not through Peter Lessing as she would have expected, but just in the ordinary way from the man- ager ol the company. At least Pe- ter might have told her private- ly of his intention to withdraw his backing. Since she had spoken to him on the previous day she had heard no word tfrom him. and -was suspicious because of the in- difference to her feelings this im- plied. However. he was in the theater, she reassured herself: he would come around to see her at one ot the intervals or at the close of the performance. and then. no doubt, everything would be ex- plained.

There was A knock at the door and a voice: ”May I come in. dar- ling?"

"Why. sure, Hester." Barbara called. Hester Rogan was tremb- ling, and Barbara looked up at her with quick solicitude. Rising, she put her arm round her.

"Tough luck. my dear. but don't take it too much to heart. A bit or a blow, all the same. isn't it? Just when we thought the show was finding its feet, too."

"Yes. Yes. I'm sorry about that, it's bad enough--but darling- oh. I feel so scared and so upset."

She sat. almost collapsed into a chair. and Barbara. hastened to the small cupboard.

"You shouldn't let it get you like

that. Hester," she said. "You'd bet- ter have a spot of something to put a little heart into you." she filled a glass and returned with it, and despite the other's teeble protest insisted on her drink- ing the spirit it contained. "Thanks darling." Hester mur- mured gratetuliy. handing back the glass. "But you've got me wrong. it isn't theyshow coinln, oil so im- cxpectedly thatls upset me. Some- thing worse than that. It's terrible. I just can't understand it." "why. whatever is the matter?" Barbara became detlnitely sienn- so. she took Heaters hand in hers. "Barbara. darling. it's incredible." Boater blurted out hysterically. "but I might have killed you to- night it I hadn't found out in time. Killed rout"

"Hester." Eel-ban van Dunn drew back in quick suspicion. "What do you mean?"

"You know that prop automatic I use in the third set? You know

Barbara's lingers closed con- vulsively over the other's. I-lesterl' With a gesture ot pitiable help lessness the woman appealed to her. Her voice rose almost to a cry: ”I'm sure I could have made no mistake. I'm certain it was a

blank I put in!"

"But where did the other come from-you hadn't any live cart- ridges. in any case, had you?" she demanded at last sha'i'ply.

For a. moment llester hesitated. "Yes. I'm afraid I had," she an- swered slowly.

"Apart trom any other reason. isn't it dangerous to leave such things lying around. even in a drawer?"

"I didn't think so. dear; pistol is always with me."

"LOOK at me. Hester. was it pure- ly by Chance you examined the pis- tol to-night?"

The other averted her eyes. "'1t really was." she replied after a brie! B31156. "Oh.
