For weeks Gina and the mother planned and sought the word, the thougl • that might awaken Leon to himself agaiii It was in vain. Nothing could break the drab chill that had settled over the genius ' of Leon Kantor. Then Hancock came. He did not tru-i himself to speak to Leon. .As he left In encountered Gina Berg. "Well, what are you going to do?" Han cock demanded abruptly. 'I? ' Gina looked at Hancock in aston ishment. "Ves, you !"' Hancock reiterated. ' Yoi, can make him play again." , "Tell me how ! Oh tell me how !" Gina j smothered her resentment for the hope in Hancock's words. ; "The doctor said he might come back if he got a shock. You shock him some [ way, somehow. Take his violin to him and when he refuses to play pretend you are going to smash it — smash it if you have to do i it to make good." I "When?" I 'Now — this is as good a time as any." LEON" was sitting listlessly when Gin;i entered. I "Leon," she spoke firmly, almost gaily. "I have been thinking it over and I think you are right — you can t play any more. The violinist-that-was shook his head. "You remember before you went away >ou played Alan Seeger's 'I Have a Rendezvous with Death'?" Leon nodded. "You wouldn't play it again would you? — because I am going to do something I know you will like." Leon looked at her with an air almo-i expressive of interest. Gina ran from the room and returned with Leon's priceless Stradivarius, the instrument of his many triumphs. "I know you wouldn't want any onr else ever to play the violin you have made so famous — so — " Gina raised the instrument over her hea<l " — So I will destroy it." With a cry, Leon leaped to his feet and with his right arm seized the girl's wrist. Swiftly she handed him the instrument and bow. Abstractedly, mechanically, Leon ncstlee; the violin under his chin and swept the bow across the strings. But it was not the pieci he had played before he went to war. Tht notes of the "Humoresque" came rainysweet, soft as the patter of showers in an orchard abloom in Spring. Hancock opened the door. Sarah and Esther tiptoed in. They heard the composition through, frozen as they stood lest the charm be bioken. When Leon dropped his bow a new light shone in his eyes. He had come back. Sarah and Esther went out as silently as they had come. Leon drew Gina to him. "Now I have a rendezvous with life.'' AnA as he spoke Hancock softly closed the door. For Hancock was a most excellent manager. Real Recognition THEY tell it on the film Rialto thai Maurice Maeterlinck, before his departure for the Coast as a new .\Iec-in-Pictureland, was clo.seled with a picture producer who was not a little interested in the Bclgiaa's venture. The producer slapped the treat while haired poet on the back, looked him earnestly in the eye, and burst out: "Good bye, Sir. Maeterlinck; / kuo-x you'll make good."
