but there was only dead silence.
"What can it be?" Grace whis-

A few minutes later I heard
Philip Amos’ voice in Lila's room.
There was a derisive note in it.
It frightened me. I felt sure some-
thing was wrong, yet I had no
right to go into the room un-
bidden.
"You had better go!” Grace
urged.
"Why?"
"Because I think something is

"It is agreed to be a fact by
both parties to thia agreement that

esting document, a
The existence of such an ar-

when rumors were rife regarding
the possibility of the mar-lage of
May Collins to Charlie Chaplin.'
"I couldn’t get married for
three years,” announced Miss Col-
lins. "Why? Because my contract
won't let me.”
Investigation showed that such
anti-wedding agreements are be-

it appears, prefers to vlaualize the
pretty heroines as unmarried.
Somehow or other the illusion of
romance is destroyed if it be-
comes known that such-and-auch
