scbeenii^nd Fool's Gold mammoth Christmas tree I have ever seen, all lighted with dozens of tinycolored lights. It was all dripping with shiny frosty things, and golden oranges, and balls and little birds and children's horns, and a doll. Suddenly, well, we weren't grown up actresses at all, for we discovered, above the still glowing embers of a wood fire, two bulging and enormously elongated stockings, hanging from the mantel piece. Our names were on them. And just as we felt too weak-kneed to do anything but flop and sob, down the stairs came a little swishing sound, and there was Babs, trailing in in all her glory of a new orchid silk dressing gown. "I want you all to know," she said in her soft Southern drawl, "I had an herbaceous hunch that you all were here." Babs always uses the rarest adjectives. The hunch spread, for one after another of the old gang kept coming down, Gloria and Sania and Trixie and Pat — all loving us with ecstatic hugs. They built up the fire, brought cigarettes and candy, and watched us open our stockings. I caught Phyllis' eyes, once when we had both been gazing up at the great tree, and for a second everything went black before me. I thought of Christmas dinner, and the seven little packages of dry corn flakes. Then I looked at our gang, laughing, careless, irresponsibles. "If you had been where I have been, "And seen what I have seen — " I thought, then you too would know what we are experiencing this New Years' dawning !

At the trysting place, dreaming the bitter-sweet dreams of girl-womanhood, unconscious of the black shadow about to spring — "Jack, you frightened me." "Jess, I'm mad about you. Yoah're in my blood, gal." "Help, help!" The jaws of hell open for Jess Jackson — With a light heart Jim leaves to meet his love. "You can't escape me." "Stand back or I'll jump." "Pray God I'm in time !" "Jim— thank God!" "You white-livered skunk, you've laughed for the last time." The mountain sun, blood-red, sets on a bigger, better, cleaner world. of the rose like 79 ffjpj^ complexion of (he famous Spanish beautif fordr Even blase New York marveled! When this dainty Senorita who had come from sunny Spain to make her American film debut, stepped off the liner, spontaneous exclamations of wonderment came from the welcomingthrong. At the docks — hotels — and studios — all wondered at the saintly beauty of the complexion of this great Spanish film star. Questioned later, she laughingly replied: "Since childhood I have used only cocoa butter — the favorite cosmetic of Spanish Beauties. But — since coming to America I have found a new and better way to use my beloved cocoa butter. Now I'm never without Coco-Bloom (Cocoa-Butter) Creme. "I could talk for hours about Coco-Bloom (Cocoa-Butter) Creme. It fairly melts into the skin, plumping the cells and stimulating OOP. circulation. It will bring the glow of health to your cheeks as it has to mine. "I want all American Women to know of the wonders it has performed for me, so I have induced the makers to make a special introductory offer, reducing price from 75c to 50c that all Screenland's readers may see for themselves the wonderful results."
