ADMISSION: x " i,Ai-fATAiAiAiiii-if-if-i-irihsf.AlfsfiA y?w?wfi HMHMHMMMMHnMIMnMMMHWl V A WONDERFUL DANCE By EARL REED SILVERS. It ? Children 25c Adults 50c vsrvv "Vhoc girl nri' you?" "Your."." "Are you sure?" "Sure." "Positive?" 'Tos-i-llve." "Whose eyes mo those?" "Your."." "Whose lips?" "Vouch." "Show me." A crescent) moon pushed INr-lf over the edge of a sliver-tinted elotid. and peered down upon tho porch of the Country club. It wiw two Inures nes tled In the shadows; mid then discreet ly withdrew. Neither of the figures moved. From the dunce Hour came the sound of soft music Then the hoy he was only a hoy, twenty-two iiml Just out of collect spoke again. "I'm crazy, crazy about you," he Kiihl. "Are you sure?" It wus u glrly's voice that nn swered ; u voice that reminded one of far-off sliming In the depths of a (ireain forest. "Sure." "Positive?" "Pos-l-tlVf." A long moment chipM'd. "And I'm always going to be." he mhled. "Always mid always." The miMe died away, Minifying tho end of the dunce, uud footsteps mound ed on I he stone porch. The two peo ple In the shadows became more ills, tlnctly two people. A moment ago they had resembled one Indetermin ate hulk. "Hae you I lie next dance with any one?" the boy asked. "Xo." "Then we can keep on sitting out here?" "Yes." She paused a moment. "1 want lo tell you something." "What?'- "I'll let you know In just three min utes." The music started again and the peo ple silting near by passed through the doorway. The two were alone again, so nobody but the girl heard what the hoy hud to say. "I Ioe you," he whispered. A pair of round arms encircled his neck; cool, white arms which he had dreamed about for ages. The girl was silent for a moment he fore she spoke. "I hate to spoil this wonderful, won derful evening," she said, "hut 1 must do It. 1 simply must tell you some thing." "What is It?" "It's about Arthur Thorp," she ex plained. Her voice wavered a little, "lie and I have have known each oth er nil our lives. We've been very, very good friends, and it's been gen erally understood that we would he married some day." "You haven't promised him, have you?" "No. We never said much about It; but all the time you were away at college we went together steadily, and and he's been saving up." "P.ut if .miii aren't engaged to him It's all right." The hoy moved for wind Impulsively. "I love you," he said. "I know, dear." She placed her hand on his arm. "Hut don't you see that I must tell Arthur llrst? It's only fair to hint; and If he and If he should take It In the wrong way, I suppose that that I shouldn't become engaged to you." The boy looked wistfully In the dis tance. "I guess It's the only thing to do," he s-uid. "When are you going to tell him?" "During the next dunce. I have It with him." "And how shall I know?" "You'll know by watching us. As soon as the music starts, Iihall tell him thnt I I care for someone else. If he holds me to my half-promise, wo will go home. If he doesn't and every thing is all right, Arthur and I will dance the encore together." The music censed, and she arose. "I am going now." Through the window the boy saw her meet the other man and smile Into his eyes. After what seemed an eter nity of waiting, the music started for the next dance. As the moments sped on, It seemed to the one waiting on the porch that the suspense was just a little more than he could hear. And as he waited, the two upon whom his thoughts were centered sat together In another room. "Arthur," the girl said slowly, "I know now that 1 can never care for vim the wav you want me to. There's .someone else you know who he is mill I love him because he says won derful things, and because well, Just because . . " Tor a moment the "other fellow" dropped his head In his hands. Then he squared his shoulders. "I understand," he said. After a brief silence he led her Into tho main room and danced the very best he knew how. Tho boy on tho .porch watched them for a minute or two. Then he went to the swinging couch, where he lis tened with eyes dosed to the rhythmic notes. And although ho wasn't danc ing, It was the most wonderful danco he had ever known. When the music died away, tho girl came to where ho was waiting In tho bhailows.
