He turned to Bell and told the casting director that one could guess Anne Winter would be a good dancer from the way she walked.
Bell nodded and said that was true. "I wonder," he said, with a smile for Anne, "whether Miss Winter would mind terribly if we asked her to sing a litle."

Anne told Rorimer that evening: "They were wonderful to me, Dan! I didn't dance well-really; I felt as clumsy as as an elephant."
"Yes, I imagine," said Dan dryly. "I bet you knocked them right out of their seats."
"Don't be silly!"
"I mean it," he insisted. "What did they say about your singing? Remember what I told you, if you ever got a chance."

"Well, a drive, then, to the beach." He brought his car to a stop the parking lot beside the Chinese Theatre, and Anne said, as they turned toward the lobby, that a drive certainly sounded more ap- pealing.
Sitting beside her in the theatre,
he watched her, and he kept her in his thoughts, paying scant at- tention to the story that was un- folding on the sereen. Anne's eyes shone with a happy, eager light, but otherwise she seemed calm and coel. Anne, he thought, always secme: that way. The day had been hot-it was the.. middle of May now and Anne had been un- dar a strain; but she looked as cool and fresh as though she had stepped out of an electric refriger- ator to meet him.
His own day had not gone so well; nothing seemed to go well nowadays at Continental, with Mar- tin Collins gone over to the Amal- gamated lot and Adamson on the warpath with one of his periodical campaigns for economy. Senseless and trival.
