# Argosy All-Story Weekly, January 21, 1922
This issue features five serialized stories and one novelette. The lead story, "Fortune Unawares" by J. Allan Dunn (Part One of a four-part serial), opens in a private gambling house where the narrator Kennedy, his college friend En Sue (a Chinese-American athlete and son of a Shanghai contractor), and Tomlinson celebrate their alma mater's athletic victory. Kennedy, a college graduate with limited finances, and En Sue, who received an unlimited allowance, share a taste for gambling. The narrative begins in the back room of Pop Crandall's second-floor gambling establishment in a formerly fashionable, respectable neighborhood. The story explores the contrasting fortunes of the two men as they engage in card play in the early morning hours following their celebration. Additional contents include serials by Kenneth Perkins, Elizabeth York Miller, Carolyn Wells, and Theodore Goodridge Roberts; a novelette by Charles Wesley Sanders; and short stories by Lyon Mearson, Howard Rockey, George M. A. Cain, Gailard Backman, and Rose Pelswick.
