True, there was a measure of excitement in the usually sedate manner of the butler as he made this simple declaration and raced

the kitchen Into peace and quiet of a late summer morning in uptown New York. But not enough excitement to explain in itself the consterna- tion it caused. The cook dropped the bowl she was

dropped using. the cham- bermaid and the chauffeur fairly leapt from the table at which they had been eating and led after Huggins with cries akin to terror.

An apparition appearing on the balcony above checked them mo- mentarily in their fight.

What the devil's going on?", Bill Ward shouted. A bathrobe clutched about him was his only claim to decency.

Blonde, beautiful and balmy that's Dulcy, the adorable dumb-belle whose misadventures have amused millions of theatre- goers. One of the most popular characters created by the famous American playwrights, George S. Kaufman and Marc Connelly, Dulcy is soon to be seen on the screen in Hongkong in the picture of the same name. Dulcy mixes millionaires and maniacs, ruins the sale of an invention and breaks up three romances (including her own). Start reading about her misadventures below.

"Miss Dulcy" calmly emerging from the celine below completed the tabelau.

Thero was a loud grumbling report. The whole house acemed to shiver. A section of the ban- nister along the balcony teetered fitfully and fell.. The servants stood transfixed.

"Earthquakel", cooed Miss Dulcy in sincere ingeniousness and wide- eyed wonder.

Brother B's bath had rudely disturbed. There would be plumbers and carpenters' bills to pay. But one couldn't live with Duley-and-keep-harking back to the past, no matter how annoying or recent-it was. Bill didn't have to ask questions; he knew exactly what had happened.

"Oh, then I guess they've quit," was Dulcy's complacent response. -"But you're staying, aren't you,

Tom?"

"Sure..

I'm kinda eccentric myself," the Irishman repiled.

Dulcy was still not interested In the Forbeses and the docking steamer Bill was so anxious meet.

"Drive, as quickly as possible to the Parole Board, Tom," she said. "I have an oppointment there to rescue a poor lost soul."

She made

ness.

"It's Pier 47," Bill shouted as he burried away in a taxi. "You'd better write it down-you'll for- Est ."

"Oh, no, I won't" called back Dulcy. "Forly-seven is my lucky number."

Even the judge knew Dulcy- and her reputation. If he hadn't. he'd have argued a bit more with her about the helping hand she purposed to extend to the "poor Jost soul".

"Are you sure, Miss Ward, that you know enough about this man to have him paroled in your cus- tody?" he asked quite dubiously.

"Oh, indced, Judge," babbled Dulcy. "I Investigated him through our Welfare League.

Henry here is really a sweet, simpic, loyal,, misunderstood per son. After all, there's good in all of us. I believe that every cloud has a silver lining-and so has Henry!"

The Judge turned to look again. All he could see in Henry-with the aid of his well-spectacled eyes and the records before him--was a big hulking convict with close- cropped hair who had spent many years of his life climbing porches and snatching pocketbooks!

When a controlling providence is quiet, calm, unruffled "the milis of the Gods grinding slowly but exceeding fine"-it's sometimes hard to recognise its influence on every human life. Dulcy's

"con- trols" were impish: they drove her on through a tangle of errors to weave the pattern of her liv- ing in a manner to prove to all who observed that "Man purposes but God disposes!"

She did forget the pier number. She went to "Seventy-four" — not "Forty-seven". But the Green Flag boat was docking there, the For beses were there, and Bill was deliriously happy in reunion with Angela Forbes, the girl he was go- ing to marry when deep-scaled öb. jections on her father's part had been overcome. -

C. Roer Forbes, of Forbes Air- craft, was the king of person who was "deep-seated" about every- thing. He'd made a lot of money, mostly by bossing people, and his wife and daughter found life bear- able only when they didn't cross him.

It was Mrs Forbes who noticed that Duley hadn't met the return Ing party as Bill had promised she would. "Where's your sister, Bill?" she asked. "I'm afraid she won't be here," Bill apologised, "It's my fault... I gave her the. wrong pler number-by mistake.”

It was quite a big pler-and Bilt didn't know that at that very moment Dulcy was on it, working

DULCY had just been direct-

at-

ed to where she might find the Forbeses when her attention was attracted by a cute little Chinese child in custody of a wor- rled steamship attendant.

The tendant was anxiously awaiting the arrival of one "Gordon Daly, 472 E. 32nd St, New York City" to whom the cute little package had been

duly und properly addressed by the

"American Red Cross, Shanghai, China," according to a ing attached to his colourful Oriental costume.

Dulcy was fondling the child when Mr Daly, young anda hand- some, hurried to claim his consip- ment. The strange young lady seemed to have become a part of this unusual situation which had lang made Mr Daly somewhat ill at ease every time he thought of it and he hesitatingly volun- teered an explanation.

The consecration of the Very Rev. John Leonard Wilson, Dean of St John's Cathedral, as Bishop of Singapore, took place In the Cathedral yesterday, when an impressiva service, accompanied by traditional ceremonial, was held before a large congregation.
