Pocketful o' Songs (Continued from page 51) The friendship grew under the glare of Klieg lights, became a sincere affection between two young people. The longer they teamed in pictures, the closer Mickey and Judy grew. One day on the set Mickey turned to Judy. "Judy," he said, "I think you're wonderful. Will you be my girl?" "You mean really be your girl and not go out with anybody else?" "Of course I mean really. This is serious. This is different." "This is love," Judy said and they gazed mistily into each other's eyes. Judy's mother, Ethel, came to see them on the set one rainy afternoon. "May I offer my wishes for your happiness? You're engaged, I hear." Mickey and Judy looked a little startled. "That's wonderful," Ethel said. She glanced casually at Judy. "I suppose you won't be going tonight to hear that young orchestra leader, David Rose." But Judy did go to hear Dave Rose — and to talk to him after the broadcast, the first step in a romance that would lead to a happy marriage. For Judy and Dave both knew, from that first moment, that they were for each other. "You are too young to think of marriage," wise heads counseled. "Your public wants you to remain a child. They will forsake you if you marry. Just think, Judy, you'll be a matron." Well-meaning friends collared Dave." "You have no right to interfere in her career. It would be selfish. She belongs to the world. You're older, Dave. You know show business. Convince Judy that she mustn't think of getting married for years." "But we love each other," Judy and Dave protested. They were rewarded by a fine careless laugh. "Oh that," people said. "Well, don't take it too hard. You'll get over it." But Judy and Dave didn't get over it. And one night they faced and tackled the situation. "Nothing is worth having unless it's worth fighting for," Dave quoted. "Let's give ourselves a chance." "I'm not afraid," Judy said. "If the public won't like me as a married woman, they just won't like me, that's all." "We'll soon find out," Dave said. "We can be in Las Vegas in an hour. . . ." Thus it happened that Ethel and her husband stepped aboard a plane with about ten minutes' notice and stood by proudly while Judy and Dave said "I do" to each other's hearts. SINCE her marriage there has been a depth, a quiet sincerity in Judy that is a delight to see. "Know what we're going to do when the public doesn't want us any more?" she asks gaily. "Buy a farm in New England, raise pigeons and write poetry." "Heaven help the publishers," David murmurs. But later he confesses shyly that Judy's verse is "darned good." "You are to blame for it," Judy accuses him. Then, with a mischievous twinkle in her eye, she explains, "You see, I never really had a proper courtship. Dave would call me for a date and I'd spend hours getting dressed in my best bib and tucker to go stepping out around the town. Dave would no sooner ring the doorbell than he'd pull a roll of manuscript from his pocket and say, 'I just want to look over this score, Judy. It won't take a minute.

Why does He permit cruelty, injustice, pain, starvation, sickness and death? Thirty years ago, in Forbidden Tibet, behind the highest mountains in the world, a young Englishman named Edwin J. Dingle found the answers to these questions. A great mystic opened his eyes. A great change came over him. He realized the strange Power that Knowledge gives. That Power, he says, can transform the life of anyone. Questions, whatever they are, can be answered. The problems of health, death, poverty and wrong, can be solved. In his own case, he was brought back to splendid health. He acquired wealth, too, as well as world-wide professional recognition. Thirty years ago, he was sick as a man could be and live. Once his coffin was bought. Years of almost continuous tropical fevers, broken bones, near blindness, privation and danger had made a human wreck of him, physically and mentally. He was about to be sent back to England to die, when a strange message came — "They are waiting for you in Tibet." He wants to tell the whole world what he learned there, under the guidance of the greatest mystic he ever encountered during his twenty-one years in the Far East. He wants everyone to experience the greater health and the Power, which there came to him. Within ten years, he was able to retire to this country with a fortune. He had been honored by fellowships in the World's leading Geograph ical Societies, for his work as a geographer. And today, 30 years later.he is still so athletic, capable of so much work, so young in appearance, it is hard to believe he has lived so long. As a first step in their progress toward the Power that Knowledge gives, Mr. Dingle wants to send the readers of this notice a 9,000-word treatise. It is free.
