I Morning, November 1, 1934. THE NASHVILLE TENNESSEAN RESTLESS WOMEN BY JANE DIXON Sandy, hysterical. laughed: "Yes. She For must all not he knows, I might be hungry as hound." "That reminds me. Now don't say you got Da date.

On account I'm taking a night off, Milt and 1 thought you might go up the line with us for air. We could stop off somewhere -and do bizness with waiters." Sandra considered. Dared she risk it? Suppose she passed out. Any doctor might discover why. She'd try another way.

"I'm feeling pretty low." she said. "Headache and whatnot, If Milt and you would come here. we'd stir up a bowl of this or that and make merry. But that would be asking you to give up your evening and I shouldn't be so greedy. Greedy nothing." The Queen was solicitous at once, "Why didn't you tell me you were off your feed? I'd a been here fetchin' and carryin' for you." off your feed.

It the Queen knew how apropos her slang could be! "It's just--I guess it's the heat. 1.1 could stretch out flat for while 'scuse, I think I'd better get inside." She had to grope along the wall. The Queen slipped pillow under Sandras head. "Any brandy in the cupboard?" "Not drop. glass of water will do." scornfully.

"What you need is a good still snort o' brandy and a bowl o' broth. I bet been niblin' cream puffs and cavair. I'll ring Milt and tell him to down and bring the makin's with him. Gee. It a lucky I come along.

One o' them gold spoon boys o' yours mighta barged by and ted you lobster Newburg for supper." Milt came in shortly, breathless and heavy laden. Dear, kind Milt. It was like him transport hot broth in carton from nearby to, French restaurant famous for its couisine. "Tnis comes he ordered. holding glass to Sandra's lips.

Brandy, It lifted the numbness from her limbs. Her blood tingled. She wanted to laugh, to cry, tu shout, to sob. Steady. No one must know.

"Now the essence of chicken." Milt said. bringing the steaming bowl to the couch. "You see she takes it, beautiful. I got work in the kitchen." what you call good provider," the Queen encouraged, pretend sho did not Sandra's hand was shaking 80 that she could not manage broth. "Here.

leme handle that baby food. I'm the oldest of seventeen kids and I'm heck on spoonin'." Later, when the Queen, by her own admission, had "polished enough bones to make a holiday for dogpound" Sandra agreed the air would complete her cure. She was returned to 12th street stronger and cheerier than she had been for a month. "No more the Queen warned. "And lay off the caviar canopees.

I'll be droppin' in tomorrow to see you're mindin' the doctor's orders." "Thanks, doctor. You may be sure I'll stick to your diet. You are couple of dears to give up your evening to rescue work." "Don't mention it dearie." The Queen's arm was around Milt's shoulder. "We Just go around spreading cheer and light, don't we poppa? And we're not ning for office either. Get you some sleep, Sandy.

Something tells me tomorrow's goin' to be your big day." Sandy closed the door of the snug- bug behind Her and hummed tune. The crisis was past, for the time at least. Milt, with his man's idea of food buying. had brought enough provisions to last her week, or longer. Anything could happen in a week.

The best. The worst. Facing the worst had not shattered her purpose. It had bent her spirit, to the breaking point. She had managed to hold tight.

Steve, must not return to New York and find her dangling at loose ends. In the morning Sandra was out of bed with a bound. Coffee for breakfast. and rolls with butter. marmalade.

Eight o'clock. She'd try agencies first. Too early for the theaters. She closed her doorlatch sticking--the telephone. "Hello." Sandra sank into cushioned chair, holding the receiver to her ear.

Tight. Rapture was singing across the wire. "Sandy, this is Steve. I'm just off the train. Segal's taking the skit.

I'll be right down She was going to meet Steve She was going to play part in Steve's skit. It she'd crosed the street to the brick house--but she hadn't crossed. She had kept her flag flying. Salute! "Sandy," Steve exploded when she opened the door to his vigorous ring. "We're on our way.

We're going places." The kiss of greetIng he gave her was kiss of Jubilation she was sure. "Steven," she cried, "how splendid! However did you manage It "Easy enough once I got the Idea. Why I didn't think of it before- anyhow here's the idea. wrote Segal to return the skit. since he wasn't using it.

Told him It was yours--it is really--and onder the circumstances there seemed nothing to be done about his putting it on, but another buyer was waiting for it. Maybe there was, for all we know. The letter elicked. Back came wire saying he had decided to buy it on my terms and herewith an advance to seal the contract.

Do ducks swim? Let's celebrate." "Let's." Joy was contagious. "What will we do? Banners and a -brass band?" "Later maybe. We'll be modest at first.

How about having the real cast of characters, say an opening night. Do you think Sonny and Bubbles and the crowd would suscribe to something downtown, -a supper say in the Italian style? I'm afraid the bank roll won't reach as far as the Casino or the crystal chandelier circuit -yet." "They'd adore it." Steve must not know her vote would be for a celebration in time rollicking reunion in the snug-bug with the Queen and Milt. Crystal chandeliers. The current east of Fifth had caught Steve, was still bouncing him along through its rapids and its shallows. "The skit won't open for month.

By that time the crowd will be back from the races." A month. Sandra made a pretense of raising a blind to let in the morning light. She could live for a week, two weeks most. But a month. with empty purse, her rent unpaid, she'd have to tell Steve she couldn't play in his sketch.

She must find work at once, today. "Don't think you're going to loaf the summer away, little Stere rattled on. "Segal wants you back in the Laces to sort of limber up, get the feeling. as it were. We'll rehearse mornings and between shows.

But she hadn't lost it. And now that she had fought through no one, not even her mother, must be permitted to lay Tartar hands upon its still frail structure. (Copyright, 1934. by Jane Dixon) (To Ba Continued) WILLIAM T. WOOD SERVICES TODAY Funeral services for William Thomas Wood.
