"Then let's walk over there to ber studio," Jimmy proposed, "Mildred never goes to bed before 2, she'll be up and you can change to your street othes before we go home." Janet agreed and they walked through the cool spring night to- gether, their feet echoing in the sil ent deserted streets, Janet kept her wrap pulled tightly about her; it wasn't very warm and she wanted to walk fast. Jimmy had pulled one arm through his and held it closely pressed to his side. They did not talk much, both content with the companionship and intimacy of their walk. Janet found herself wishing Mildred's apartment were very far away, her own problems seemed dis tant and unreal with Jimmy so close at her side, with the rich fur of Mildred's wrap up under her chin, with no one to see them save an oc- casional policeman. "Sorry we're here so soon," Jimmy remarked as they went up the steps to Mildred's apartment. "So am 1," said Janet shyly, "Are you really?" Jimmy happily. "Oh, Janet" But Janet, alarmed at the deep tone in his voice ran ahead of him, "Don't spoil our evening," she com. manded. "Spoil it?" Jimmy's face fell, but he.could say nothing more, for Janet in response to Mlidred's voice had opened the door and stepped into the apartment. "Hello, Jenny Wren," Mildred called from the depths\of the daven- port where she was drowsing over a book. "You're back early--didn't you like the Pussycat?" "I liked it," Janet sald, "but we got tired and came before the others did. I thought I'd like to get your loyely clothes back to you tonight-- it's been wonderful to wear them." "Very well--you run in and change while I talk to Jimmy----" asked g.

"I hope you can aaske good I can't, and Lucy's asleep," Mildred said lazily. "Make Jimmy help you, he's a bum cook, but he can juggle the tray for you." Janet went into the tiny white tiled kitchen, rejoicing in the electric ice box, the shining stove, the silver per- colator, the gay china, With Jimmy's awkward help she got.a lunch to- gether for them and they carried it back to the lving room. "I calls this swell," Mildred said resently, sniffing at the coffee, "I'll ve to get you to show Lucy how you make 1t. Jimmy says you didn't have such a polsonously good time at the Pussycat that you'll be beg ging him to take you back there again next week." "I liked it," Janet said slowly, "but it was like going on a sightsee- ing trip, something you wouldn't want to miss, but,something you wouldn't want to do every day." "I feel the same Way," told her. "I had a gang in here to- night, after you left. Some of the old crowd, Jimmy, they asked about you and I told them: you'd gone haywire after making an honest living. They piled out to dance some place after midnight, but I told 'em I was get: ting too old for that sort of fluff." Duncan A discontented expression crossed her face and Janet wondered for the first time about Mildred's friends. "Was Duncan with them?" Jimmy asked. The cloud on Mildred's face deep- ened. "Yes--and Thera's in Paris, but not doing anything about a di- vorge so far as we know." Jimmy shook his head and sighed (and Mildred, seeing the question in Janet's eyes, went on, explaining, "you see, Jenny, I'm in love with a man who already has & wife--~he's a grand chap and so is she, but they simply don't get on together, Thera, that's his wife, is a good scout, but she's spoiled and ehe wants her own way. She wants Duncan to give her more alimony than he really can | afford and he won't do it, so she keeps him dangling--he--well it gets to be rather a strain to be alone with Rim. I told him to run along over | to Paris next week and have another | talk with Thera--and for goodness sake mot to come to tell me good-by this time--it just devastates me to tell him good-by--" Her volce broke and Janet, not | knowing what to say, remembered how she had envied Mildred her free- | dom. Jimmy's voice broke into her re- verle, "Keep your chin up, Mildred, ! it will work out in time. You and | have been pretty square /0u know--it takes patience~--" "1 bate patience--I'm not & pa- tient person" Mildred exploded, and then suddenly hroke into a storm of weeping. | Jimmy weat to comfort her, patting her shoulder awkwardly, murmuring | to her. Janet, longing to be of com- | fort and not knowing how, began to gather up the dishes to carry them to the kitchen. When she came back } Mildred was drying ber eyes, "Sorry | I made such an ass of myself," she | | { needed, I guess. I'll feel a lot better now. You two run along home, I'm | going to sleep--"" | O'clock Mass They left her and went again into Near the sub | way station stood an old church, built there when 22nd streét was a pros perous residence section. Its doors stood open, lights gleamed inside, | and a thin stream of people, mostly bent old women of foreign birth were going in for the sunrise mass, Jimmy touched Janet's arm, | "Would you like to go ia for a min | ute?" he asked. "They have lovely | | music bere at the ¢ o'clock service, | I've been here once or twice when 1 | was a little boy--my mother was & | Catholic and she loved this old] churekh." | "I'd like to go--I've never been to suth a service," Janet assented. Only candles gave light and the In- terior was dim and quiet. They knelt in pews near the back of the church and felt their hearts lifted up as the processional chant began. Jane! thought of Mildred and her unhap- piness and something like a prayer for Jimmy's sister came into her mind, Beside her Jimmy, his head bent, his heart aching for the mem. ory of his mother who had left her faith to follow his father and who had never entirely given it up, happy though she was in her marriage, let the music and the voices of the priests carry him closer to Janet. He could just see her clear profile, with its pure proud outline, and he felt a great wave of tenderness sweep over him. How dear she was They left before the service was over and er a long wait in tho subway station got a train, deserted except for a few workers, that car : ried them out to Brooklyn. Janet's eves dropped and she elept most of the way home, for she was very tired. | She was hardly awake when Jimmy loaded her into a taxi for the three blocks to her home and she was only dimly grateful for the gentle way in| which he 'guided her up 'the steps of the porch and let her into the house. "Good night, and thank you," she! said eleepily. "Good night, and thank you," Jimmy smiled back at her. Janet tumbled into bed and slept, slept, through the morning, into the | afternoon. It was nearly 4 when the insistent ringing of the telephone | roused her. She listened for her | mother to answer it, but when it kept | on ringing realized that Mrs, Lane | must be out. >a | She gathered a kimono around her | and ran down the stairs. | "Janet, Janet," came a shrill voice, "where is Adelaide? She hasn't come in at all and I haven't heard a word from her since she left last night."

The scenic val- nes of the island of' seaweed and de- relict ships are immense. So is the artistic quality of the photography and technical work, which reproduces miles of wrecked ships of every cen- tury back to the Spanish galleons. Of course, the director did not neglect the big opportunities afford. ed for thrilling action. We're even taken below the surface of the sea for a submarine ride! The love af- fair is novel and satisfying, and the picture also abounds in humor. | Everyone's voice is splendidly re-| y corded and very effective dramati- cally. All of the sounds reproduced, | every one so very naturally, assist| wonderfully in making the most im- aginative parts of the film credible and satisfying. "The Isle of Lost Ships" is a film about which we must repeat that oldest, most hackneyed admonition: | "You can't afford to miss it." It's different, It's artistic and imagina- tive and adventurous, it's highly entertaining. You will long remember@how it held you spellbound. WIPE YOUR WIND SHIELD When you see the morning mist Drift and thicken, and you twist Like a ship that drives a-list, Wipe your wind shield. When the sky is dull and gray And the wind is whipped with apray, When you do not see your way, Wipe your wind shield. When your course is up the steeps And your burden drags the deeps, When your laboring motor creeps, Wipe your wind shield. When you take the road at night Down a tunneled path of light, Darkness closing on your flight, Wipe your wind shield, When the glow you see afar I¢ your home light----or a star, When you know not where you are, Wipe your wind shield, When the road is all too long [And your heart has lost its song, When you hear the twilight gong, Wipe your wind shield. --Lewis Worthington Smith.
