Continued from page 43 for some trap drums, and before I knew it I was in the college orchestra, playing for dances and having a whale of a good time. "You know, I was taking my final exams for graduation, when I was called for the Paramount school. I've never been back to see whether I graduated or not ! I don't suppose I did, I was so excited about the prospect of getting into the Paramount school. "And so — here I am. Gee, it's a big thrill to have my name on my own chair in the studio, and to be a star. Don't you think I'm lucky?" I did, and do. But I'm afraid it isn't all luck. Charles Rogers is a mighty nice boy. He can be described no more graphically than this — he is just as you think he is, only nicer. He is disarmingly frank. No publicity department speeches for him. He has nothing to hide in his life, and as long as every one likes him, and he likes every one, which is his happy philosophy, there's no harm in telling anybody anything. To call him "Charles" sounds stilted, which he is not. To say "Charlie" brings a wise-cracking, hail fellow to mind, which he most certainly is not. To call him "Buddy" — that's about right. But the Rogers boy doesn't like that. "Sounds like you're calling a dog," he says, with evident distaste. You see, Charles-Charlie-Buddy tries very hard to be dignified upon the first instant of meeting. But soon, in the fun of getting acquainted, he forgets all about his dignity and is his own self — a great kid. He doesn't want to get married. "M-m-m !" articulated on a bite of salad, and meant to convey emphatic denial. "No — I have too many things I want to do. Got it all figured out. It's going to take me about seven years to get 'em all finished. "First, I want to take mother to Europe. She's the best sport, and she's never been there. Gee, it will be fun to do it together. I want to be there about a year. "And I want to study some more, and oh, gee, there's so much to do. I haven't time to get married !" So be it. Charles lives with a fraternity brother and the latter's mother and elder sister in a Los Angeles bungalow. He has one room to himself, the same room he had when he arrived in Los Angeles three years ago. In the back yard there is a kennel for Baron. One room, a kennel and money in the bank. Money to take him and his adored mother to Europe. Money to educate his younger brother. Money to save. Charles Rogers has everything he wants. He should have. He gives out an aura of happiness ; you can't help smiling when he's around. He makes you feel like conquering the world. For his youth, his bubbling exuberance, his clean boyishness, he deserves any adulation and admiration he may receive. This Thing Called Love Continued from page 111 she nodded her sleek head, its waves of red now closely clipped — "an executive— advised. He reined me in. And with real love, I knew I couldn't ever be that way again. "The average girl's sophistication is smeared on with lipstick and mascara. Coming from a respectable home, used to comforts, she is merely frolicsome and restless. But I am really cynical. Only superlatives could register against my protective armor. "Yet, through each love affair, I was waiting. I knew they weren't real. I ran the gamut of the modern girl's smoke screen, each item exaggerated, and back of it all I began to think. "I do not regret my playtime foolishness. We learn only through mistakes. But I am glad now" — a sigh rippled off her carmined lips — -"that it is over and I can give my attention to genuine things — love, real work, progress. I never took my work very seriously before. Everything was a lark." That is true. The Joan who used to be tardy for appointments and wave duties aside with gay indifference is gone. She is punctual, earnest, interested. She radiates power and assurance, but of a quiet sort, not the nervous frenzy that used to quiver from her every gesture. Oh, she isn't serene. She never will be. She \has too much molten energy ever to slump into habits. But a calm that seems deep and sure folds over her like a warm cloak. She has given up the incandescents for the sunlight.
