By Dorothy Herzog]

SITTING PRETTY

Allan Hale has returned from Pebble Beach where he went agolf- ing at the National tournament that you have been rendin' about. Along with Jesse Lasky and Billie Dove and some more "colebs" from this city. Allen didn't do much golf shooting but he scored par on tho hotel where he was staying. Ar- riving to pay his bill, the clerk said, deferential like, "Oh, that's O. K. Mr. Hale, we'll just mail it to you, we have your address,"

So Allen left without deposit. Half hour later, the telegraph company delivered a message for him.

"Sorry, Mr. Hale has checked out and we have no address for him." The telegram was from the missus, Allan thinks he's sitting pretty.
