x-eters voice, cold wilh anger,
broke into his sentence. He said
only a few worda and without giv-
ing Danchenoff a chance to answer
broke the connection.
The director walked slowly back
to the rehearsal. It proa not so
mucu now that he was angered.
Hie curiosity was aroused, his im-
: -agitmt.on intrigued.
"hr Taranda!". he said under
his breath. "Since when has any
girl preferred a commoner to a
noble Hu he lost his mind? Or
is she a lunatic? Or Is she per-
haps » Grand Duchess In disguise
doir.* this for a lark?"
x.y..ia did not want to go with
Peter tho neat day when he sug-
gested they go to Danchenoff for
an audition. She was not as naive
as she appeared to be. She knew
it would be all but impossible for
unknowns, socially as well as pro-
fessionally, to be received by the
great man. But Peter was firm
and she was young and loved ad-
venture. It would do no harm, cer-
tainly. for them to aek. But ehe
was horrified at Peter's conduct
when they arrived in Danchenoff,
rtception room.
The eecretary refused to an
nunce them, of course. The Im-
presario saw applicants only by
- written appointment. Peter Us-
| tened gravely, then walked to the,
1 door leading into the private of-
fice. He began singing in a loud
voice.
"Danchenoff! Dan-chen-off!" his
voice rang out
“Yvhat is this?" roared Dan-
chenoff flinging the door open.
"Only Lydia M~rakova and Peter
Taranda demanding an audition."
“Let's go, Peter." said Lydia in
a weak voice, as Danchenoff put
; on a threatening look and pointed
’ to the outer door.
They did not go. For a few
minutes Peter and Danchenoff
went on acting; Peter as a young
yokel, Danchenoff aa an outrag-
so director.
"Very well," said Danchenoff
finally, “I do not want the scan-
dal of calling the police to eject
you. I will hear you sing. But
when I pass Judgment, it Is ths
final word "
"That Is all we aek.” said Peter
sslldty. “We promise to abide by
your decision.
The orchestra was In the pit as
the three of them entered the
auditorium. "Carmen" eras selected
as the opera Lydia sang first
There was a change of expression
on Denehonoff'a face as her voice
rang Out Then Peter sang Ears
mute's long and together they sang
the love duet.
"Silence'" roared Danchenoff to
the orchestra at the end. “I do
not hire you to applaud hut to
be applauded." But he was any-
thin* Mt angry. "An answer to
a director's prayer," ho seM to
"Will ydu do something for me,
Peter?"., asked Lydia, taking the
reins: "Please. Let me go to tho
right. It is very important to me."»

"I’m parched and

____I'm starved,’
he said in mock grumbling, "but

what of that? Your lightest whim
is the strongest command."
"We'll be there — where I want
to go — in five minutes,” said
Lydia. She was silent then until
they came to a little gate. "Here
we are, Peter. Please wait for
me."
"Why,” he said in surprise, "It Is
a t-.iurch."
"And a churchyard,” she an-
swered in a low tone. "Please help
me down, Peter. I'll be back in a
minute."
She smiled at him, passed
through the gate and walked up
the path. He saw her go to a
grave and bend over it Her lino
were moving. Then she brought
her hand together in a gesture
suggesting a silent prayer. She
walked slowly back to ths troika
but the smile on her facie wua
radiant.
"Whenever anything good hap-
pens to me, Peter, I want to toll
my mother about it Coming here
doesn’t make me unhappy. It isn’t
morbid. It makes me feel she Is
still close to me. It makes me
feel I have shared my happiness
with her. Thank you for letting
me oome and now let's go to the
troika."
It was Peter who was strangely
quiet as they drove on to theina.
When be had gone for the troika,
he had pboned the proprietor to
nave his most beautiful room —
the one with the balcony looking
down on the garden — ready for
them. He had warned him that
he was not to be addressed by his
title. Now he wished they were
driving back to the city. He sug-
gested to Lydia it might be better,
to return and dine later, but she I
reminded him that he was hungry
and aaid she had alwayu wanted
to gc to the Troika fi»n. There
WSS nothing to do but to go on.
She had noticed the change in
h‘« mood. But ehe dM not mu-
tton it until they were alone la
the room looking down on tho
garden.
“la anything wrong. Peter— ehe
asked.
"No," he aaid.
"But there must be something

you? Or are you bored’"
He tried to turn It off with a
Pi*tty compliment or a laughing
Jest. He could not.
"Don’t you see — I'm ip love
