IDEN Fairman, popular tenor of station WBTS, had finished his last requested selection. En- chanted thousands listened to his melodious voice as it floated through the waves of ether, far and near. Some thirty miles, from the broadcasting station, seated by an expensive radio, and listening intently, we meet Miss Bunny Matthews. Bunny was a charming young lady with sparkling blue eyes, wavy black hair, and red, rosy cheeks. just recently she had reached that enchanting age of eight- een when young girls love to dream of dashing foreign princes. Her chief admirer was Charlie Clark, a sterling youth, who had reached the glorious age of twenty. The two were residents of the beautiful little lake town of Bancroft. Bancroft, like other towns, had its group of young people, who were at this time gossiping about the fact that. in spite of poor old Charlie's steadfast affection for her, all Bunny would do lately was to write to, and dream about, the new tenor at VVBTS. And they had reason to talk for Bunny had forgotten to remember Charlie, who had always been so good to her, and believed herself to be very much in love with Aid- en Fairman. She loved to imagine herself meeting her idol. She pictured him to herself as being tall, dark, and handsome, with snapping black eyes. As she wrote her nightly letter to the entertainer on this particular evening, Bunny was rudely awakened from her dream by the successive sounding of a familiar horn. One glance out of the window at an old Ford Coupe parked at the curb, told her that Charlie would be at the door in a moment. She was right, for in a twinkling the door burst open and a face covered with a good natured grin, spread beneath a curly mop of hair, cried,

V THE HANOVERIAN 21 Hello, Bunny, Say, they're having a peach of a picture over to the Strand tonight! Let's run overlu The enthusiastic smile faded as she replied, Thanks, awfully, Charlie, but I've got just loads of homework to do, and you know how dad is. Poor Charlie tried his best to persuade her to go, but with no avail. He had reason to be downcast, for this was the third time she had turned him down because of that tenor. Oh wellf, he consoled himself as he chugged home- ward, She'll learn somedayf' Bright and early on the morning of May seventh, Bunny arose, bathed indulgently, slipped into her prettiest dress, and donned her chickest hat. She must look her very best, for today was her day of days-she was to meet her idol, her handsome tenor who had written her such wonderful letters! After an hours' ride on a tiresome train, Bunny arrived in the big city and spent several hours shopping, for she was not to meet Aiden until afternoon. Finally it grew near the time for her appointment, and as she as- cended the richly carpeted stairs leading to the studio, she could hardly breathe for excitement. On entering the re- ception room. she was greeted by a charming studio host- ess: Miss Matthews? Oh yes, Mr. Fairman phoned that he would be here in about thirty minutes. VV'on't you be seated ? Bunny seated herself comfortably and busied hereself with gazing at the many autographed pictures of the vari- ous artists. The photos of many film as well as radio stars covered the walls. Her attention was attracted to one pic- ture in particular because of the extreme homeliness of the subject. He was a short, fat man, very unevenly propor- tioned, with a large red nose and ears like cabbage leaves. Beneath huge black eyebrows were set, very close together, two stary eyes. The girl wondered who such an un- couth looking person could be and drew closer, that she might read the signature. Bunny read the name once, twice,-and then staggered to her seat. The hostess no- ticing her, asked, How do you like Mr. Fairman's photo? He wanted
