SYNOPSIS
Stanley Paige, beautiful, young
Society girl, is left penniless when
her lawyer speculates with her
money and loses. Stanley, however,
cares little for the money, feeling
that she has everything in the love
of fascinating Drew Armitage. But
when Drew breaks their engage-
ment saying it would be impossible
to marry on his income, she is
heartbroken. Rather than accept
aid from her wealthy friends. Stan-
ley rents an inexpensive furnished
room and disappears from her ex-
clusive circle to try and make her
own way. Her friends agree that
a better way would have been to
marry handsome Perry Deverest,
but Stanley cannot forget Drew.
Then, one day, she meets John
Harmon Northrup, struggling
young author. A strong friendship
ensues and they become very nec-
essary to one another. John Har-
mon is in love with Stanley but
refrains from telling her because
of Drew. As time passes, his kind-
ness and consideration win Stan-
ley’s affection and they are mar-
ried. Thinking only of Stanley’s
happiness, John Harmon makes an
agreement with her that, if the
time should ever come when they
Cktinot give each other the wonder-
ftil companionship and understand-
ing they have now. they must end
their relationship. After three
months of married life, Stanley is
serenely happy, but John Harmon
has become so necessary to her
that she realizes, in order to pre-
serve their happiness, she must
have other interests to keep her
from getting restless while he is
writing. She applies for work in a

aproftched her, stared at her pene-
tratingly fn$n behind enormous
horn-rimmed spectacles. He was
little and wizened and his face had
taken on the color of the yellowed
pages of his books, but his eyes,
like the words on their printed
pages, were still remarkably clear

and discerning.
“I saw your card," Stanley be
gan a bit uncertainly.
“So?" the old man continued to
stare at her.
“I would like the place.” Stanley
spoke abruptly, feeling that with
this old person words were super-
fluous.
“Why?" His voice, like his stare,
was even and penetrating. It seem-
ed to brash aside trivialities, to get
at the heart of things.
“Because I like books, because I
want a job, because I want to be-
long somewhere, have some—voca-
tion.”
“Yon like books, but do you know
anything about them?”
“Not much, but I could learn. I
think I could learn very easily if
yon would bother.”
A sudden twinkle disturbed the
directness of the old man’s stare.
“Teaching people who wish to learh
is never a bother; it is teaching
fools that is a nuisanae and a waste
of time. The pay is small,” he added
abruptly, “and my customers are
few—and not interested in pretty
girls,” he waited, watching her im-
partblly.
“I would like the place," Stanley
repeated, returning his gaze un-
waveringly.
“Then come in the morning at
nine. We will see how valuable you
c^p make yourself to me. 1 am an
