The regimental secretary compressed her lips. " Rubbish," she said briskly. "Up you get this minute; here's your maid. You know very well that Mr. Zoop will be furious if you avoid publicity." Miss Velasquez yawned felinely, and in a few minutes was drooping down the staircase, assuming a yellow negligee and her accent en route, and by the time the bottom step was reached the metamorphosis had taken place. "Oo, la-la!" she trilled, skipping into the library. "Pouf for ze pipple who do not like Violetta — zey can go to hell. Whoopee !" ""THE interviewer was a personable young •*• woman, who hidakeensenseofhumor andan excellent set of brains behind a rather woodenish front. She had looked forward to meeting the sparkling Violetta, and for over an hour the latter tinkled along with her repertoire of tricks. "One thing more," said the interviewer. "What gives you the biggest thrill?" It was on the tip of Violetta's tongue to say "Sleep," for she was wondering how much longer her eyelids would stay open without propping, but she smiled wearily and substituted "Lofe." "Love?" The interviewer's eyes shone with eagerness. "But Miss Velasquez, your name has never been connected with anyone. Please let me be first on the secret Who is he?" "I lofe ze little fat Abe," cooed Violetta, "and oh, how mooch I lofe my pooblic, but yes, zere ees anuzzer. He is my dream man!" "What's he look like?" asked the practical writer. "The same as Lindbergh, only dark," said Violetta, thinking she might as well make a good job of it. "I have seen him only in my dreams, but he ees so real to me he moost exeest somewhere. All he has to do is call, and I weel fly to heem. Ah, ze passion, it chokes me!" The delighted interviewer departed, stammering her thanks. When Mr. Zoop inspected the next issue of the Sunday Sun he discovered that VIOLETTA VELASQUEZ SPENDS EVENINGS WITH GHOST LOVER. Ideas were surging inside his head and he went into a huddle with Mr. Torrance, after which Violetta was summoned to the Zoop sanctum. "A nifty girl like you shouldn't have to tangle with no ghost," he chuckled when she arrived. "So we got things fixed different. Give a glance on Cupid!" "What's got into you?" asked Violetta uneasily. She had gradually eased out of her dialect when talking with Abe, and now spoke at least as intelligibly as anyone around the Stupefaction lots. "What if I do fancy a fellow I can't see? It's good publicity." "We got a better racket," said Abe roguishly. "You're going to have a fia — , a financie." " Chalk your cue and try again." "T AIN'T no pool-roomer," said Mr. Zoop ■*■ with dignity. "Engaged you'll get, but that don't mean you have to love the guy. It's fashionable, see, and we already arranged for you to hook up with Oswald Challenger, the pride of Blotts Brothers Pictures." "That Kansas rabbit! Why, I've never even met him." "Ain't you romantical?" asked Abe. "Can't you raise at least a little gooseflesh at a phoney engagement with what Blotts claims to be the reincarnation of Sir Walter Raleigh?" "I'd trade him in for a French novel," snaoped Miss Velasquez. " I won't do it."
