He dispelled the thoughts that l

would eat a hasty meal and go on
and on and on.

So success ha»l come quickly and
| easily to tire gypsy girl. All in one
: night it had given to her more than
1 it gives to most in a whole lifetime
Gypsy that she was, she counted it
las nothing. Hadn't she dreamed of
this? Then of course it must come
j lrue. for dreams of the heart are as
* real as life itself. Hack in camp
J when she left she knew that This
would happen, just how. no. but it
would happen and it had.
So it was the tie\t morning That
she lay asleep in tlie lied as con
tented and satisfied as a kitten. The
1 room was filled with flowers and she
breathed in their fragrance and it
brought into her dreams remem
brance of a morning long ago. *he
thought that once again she was
lying on :t hillside covered with
; lilies. She had left the camp one
levelling in 'lie springtime and had
come upon this hillside that was
massed with iilies. overturned bells
j that grew no more than a few inches
i high, but tilled the mountainside
I with their sweet scent. She la>
down among them and their per
fume became a robe about her and
she fell asleep. The moon rose high
|in the heavens and its beams
| caressed her and touched her with
pale beauty. It passed on and the
sun rose and dropped Its rays of gold
j abou’i tier. And now again she was
I awakening on the hillside and life
j was good and beautiful. She opened
I her eyes and saw where she was
ati«! that it was the flowers that had
| brought the dream.
'Tm clad you've awakened, miss.’
It was Ann beside her. “They've
! called you to come to the theater a»

brought in the papers and there's
j telegrams that have come in.” Site
i paused, looking at the si ill. “Ah,
j miss. I never saw anyone so beauti
i fill as you were last night. When
: von danced it was easy and graceful
land wild, as if nothing in the whole
| world mattered except your dancing.
When >on sane I was not Ann serv

are green and the cows come up to
the sill and the cock crows at dawn

miss."
Tlte girl stretched lazily and
kicked down the covers and wiggled
her toes. She propped up the pillow:;
behind her. sat cross-legged on 'he
, bed. and opened the newspapers,

bracelet of square cut rubies set in

“I wonder whether you are real or

t item to the floor.

legs under the covers.
“Oh, you are the kidding one!

Dougalas! ’*
Pong sat down beside her.
"You're a tempting morsel this
morning. Tell me. have you been out
in the woods picking flowers and

duction.

includes ten Ojf Warner Bros.’ out
standing stars, and, with the assis
tance of more than 300 of the pret
tiest dancing girls in Hollywood, tfas
assembled the whole into a tuneful
comedy in which his talent for specta
cular screen innovations has been
given full swav.
In “Gold Diggers of 1935“ he is
said to have created the most gor
geous and unique dance numbers of
his career. There are three outstand
ing specialities including a dance in
which 90 snow white grand pianos ac
tually cavort on the stage. The dance
team of Ramon and Rosita is also
featured.

NO STEPS TAKEN
FOR CITY LEAGUE
Amateur Baseball Circuit
for City May Be Organ
ized in Near Future.
No move as yet has been made for
the reorganization of the City Base
ball league so far as could be learned
from those who were interested in
the circuit, when it was operated in
the city for the past two or three
years.
An effort will be made in the near
future Hi line the teams up again for
another season, if possible, and play
a regular schedule as has been the
custom during the league’s operation.
Last season was one nf the best in
the point of Ihe brand of baseball dis
played. The Lions Club entry and the
M. P. Baracas were to play off a se
ries at the end of the season for the
flag, the Lions finishing on top, the
M. P.’s second, but o misunderstand
ing caused the series not to be played
Four clubs completed the season
last year and about that many are
expected to form the loop: this year.
