"Dickie," called Marion to Kurt, who was in the next room blue-penciling the biography. "Bunny claims my story is going to ruin him with the voters of Tennessee." "Tell that old windbag — " And then it was on. Nolan and Kurt told each other what was what and in no uncertain terms. One promised that the biography would not be run and the other promised it would. And Leander finally departed feeling that pretty much was lost. It was then that Marion attempted to call the whole thing off. "Dickie," she pleaded, "why should we do this? I've always hated women who aired their private lives. Let's not." "Let's not?" stormed Kurt. "Why, do you know that old bird Kinnicott sent for me and offered me a job if I'd call this off? Tried to bribe me! Nothing can stop this, absolutely nothing! Even if I have to kidnap you. Say, there's an idea. Us for a cabin in the woods until this yarn is finished! How about it?" And Marion, who was at that point more in love than she ever dreamed she could be, weakly consented. A few days later, the selected cabin in the mountains boasted little more privacy than the Grand Central Station. Everybody invaded it; that is, everybody to whom the suppression of the offending biography was important. Kinnicott and Nolan arrived by motor, but not before Miss Slade Kinnicott, bride to be, had appeared on the scene. She had come to see the woman who had played so important a part in her fiance's past. She was anxious to get a first-hand glimpse of Leander's early "love life." Leander had always been cool and unapproachable to her, but then that, she figured, was before he got ambition. And so, under the guise of wanting her portrait done, she had come to the cabin, only to find it vacant, save for the maid, until her irate father and downtrodden sweetheart arrived. Mr. Kinnicott was angry at her being there and Leander was annoyed to the point of exasperation. Then Kurt appeared on the scene. Which of course was a signal for the three men to get together in a good, old-fashioned row. Nolan threatened to sue for libel if the biography were published, and Kurt suggested he go right ahead. So when Marion arrived things were in a fine mess. Miss Kinnicott explained their mission and Richard threw in the line about the libel, so that in case Marion had planned to be cordial, she would change her mind. But that young woman was gracious under all circumstances, which was cause for great exasperation with Richard. Indeed, she invited Orrin out into the sum mer house to talk things over, and there it was she learned, to her amusement, that the great physical culturist was interested in her. Indeed he even suggested a dinner date. He told her about Slade, what a flighty kid she was and how, if she married Leander, she would become stabilized. If the biography were published, the marriage would never take place and Slade would probably go ahead with her useless career of drinking highballs and staying up nights. It made Marion suddenly feel responsible, responsible for the well-being and happiness of several people and she saw more clearly how futile the publishing of the story would be and how little it would actually mean to her. And so she promised Orrin Kinnicott she would do what she could to stop it. They returned to the cabin, where she assured the inquisitive Slade that she no longer was in love with Leander. Hadn't been for years. And then, as the group were about to leave, Leander called her aside. He wanted her to do what she thought was right about the biography, but, first of all, he wanted to marry her. Marion was touched beyond words at this proposal as she sent him away. It was then time to face Kurt, which moment she steeled herself against, for she knew it would be no simple matter to explain her promise to this vindictive young man. "I've promised not to finish the story," she told him simply. "You've what? Well, my dear young lady, you will finish it. I'll hold you to our contract if it's the last thing I do !" And then Marion suddenly saw red, she who had always been able to see the amusing side of a situation. "Well, here it is !" she cried. "You can have it to do what you like with. All the rights are yours. I'm through. I'm going to California, to Hollywood to see Feydie. I'm tired of vindictiveness and get-evenness. I've had enough!" And Marion Forsyth left the cabin and New York. She went to Hollywood, as threatened or promised, and there Feydie waited. He was about to lease a home if she would marry him. But Marion's thoughts were of Richard and so, one day when he phoned from New York to tell her he was coming west to do a series of articles, she was beside herself with joy. "And Dickie," she said, "how about the biography ?" "I've torn it up, dear, because I love' you. I'm not vindictive any more. I'm not vengeful. I'll show you. Why, I'm coming out to Hollywood to rip those morons inside out. I'll be seein' you, darling." And Marion laughed and was happy. They Visit New York (Continued from page 17) romance. However, the well-known clam was never tighter shut when it comes to giving out information than this same Maurice. Our guess is that he'll never get into trouble through talking. Chevalier is the Tom Meighan of the talkies. Personality put him there and has kept him there. Acting, not so good ; age, not so young ; charm, plenty potent. How is that for rating? Fair? We think so. Phillips Holmes, too, is across the sea. He breezed into town for a day en route to England, where he will make a picture called "Ten Minute Alibi." He spent the best part of his twenty-four hours here talking to the gents who deal in the passport business and so, recreation and shopping were strictly taboo. Holmes is one of the busiest of the younger featured players. He's attractive, better than capable and possesses a goodly share of intelligence, and so undoubtedly will continue to do all right for himself.
