# Page Description This is an advertising section (page 113) from Photoplay Magazine. The top half features a large advertisement for "The Washington School of Art's Graphic-Correction Method," promoting an easy system for learning to draw at home. The ad includes sample drawings of a tree and includes testimonials from supposedly famous artists. The bottom half contains smaller advertisements for various products: Yeast-O Depilatory (for removing hair), Water-Maid cosmetic water, and Dr. Isaac Thompson's Eye Water. The left column continues a fiction story titled "Come On Over" from the previous page, featuring dialogue between characters named Shane, Moyna, and others at what appears to be a social gathering.

_ And Shane was frantic. and begged her to release him from his | “Come On Over” (Continued from page 112) “That was me mother’s name beiore she married me father,” she told him, “she’s restin’ by him now, in th’ churchyard.” She ‘did not know that her mother’s romance with Carmody had been the sort of a trage- dy that she and Shane might have known— one of unfulfilled waiting Shane came back at last, to the flat. But Moyna refused to see him, She ran out of the room when he entered and locked herself into a bedroom. And, when he tried to force the lock she threatened to jump from the window. At last, still refusing to explain matters to the now angry Delia, he left. And Moyna accepted Carmody’s invi- tation to come with him to his Ssters home until she had made her plans for the future. * & &€ * & The party! Moyna in an evening frock loaned to her by Mrs. Van Dusen’s daughter, Michael Mornahan in a dress suit, Michael's third son, a priest, and his two other sons, as well as his pretty daughter. Delia, in satin, and the old mother. . The Van Dusen mansion had seen larger and more fashionable throngs, but never a noisier mob, or a happier one! They had all arrived when Shane came in. He was pale, and nervous, but his eyes were bright with joy as they fell upon Moyna. He was in a daze of admiration as he said to her. “Girl, you're wonderiul. of you like this!" Moyna tossed her head as she answered, “You like your lidies dresed up, don't ou?” she said shortly, And just then the irate butler announced, “Miss Judy Dugan and Mr. Dugan.” Aé once the Mornahans froze, in a body. He hurried to Judy I never dreamed promise. And then, in desperation, he went to the young priest. But the pricst had | also promised. Things were going badly for the party when an old blind piper made his way past the butler and into the house. He was the piper who had played for them all, years ago, in Ireland. Everyone crowded up to him, and Moyna whispered, throwing herself into his arms, “I’m Moyna Killilea.” E o'd piper ran his hands affectionately over the girl’s face. “Shure it’s my little Moyna,” he whis- pered back. “Only vour voice is taller than it was!" Moyna was crying—the long hard day had been too much for her, The old piper felt her warm tears upon his withered hand. “There’s only one way to shake sorrow off, honey,” he told her, “and that’s to dance it off.” The word dance seemed to electrify the company. It made Delia smile suddenly. “You may be the rich Mrs. Van Dusen now,” she said to her hostess, “but I used to dance you down when you were only Maggie © Carmody.” Mrs. Van Dusen bristled with anger. “Nobody ever danced Maggie Carmody down,” she answered. “Shure, I could do it again,” Delia an- swered, “but not on these rugs. I used to dance out in the fields on a door.” Without more ado, Mrs. Van Dusen turned to the shocked butler, “Bring a door,” she ordered, “a smooth door.” And it was brought. Everybody was dancing wildly. The young people were doing a modern jazz, the two women were clogging. Dermot, the priest, crept silently out—the old piper was nearly exhausted, And then Mrs. Van Du- ‘ (Concluded om poge 114) When you write tu advertisers please mention PHOTONLAY MAGAZINE.
