Mary Moore's manner is consistently naive. When she had her audition with Manager Giulio Gatti-Casazza last spring, she was so excited that she sang with a cough drop in her mouth. Then she made a novena to Saint Gabriel and Saint Paul. ("But I haven't said much about that because I don't want people to think I go to church just because I want things.'')

And with his appearance the domestic felicity of Mrs. Wiggs, her serenity...
...born four months ago (TIME, June 11 et seq.). Though it was raining pitchforks Dr. Allan Roy Dafoe would brook no delay. Fortnight ago all five had attacks of intestinal toxemia. Last week all had slight colds, caught apparently from their five older brothers and sisters. There was whooping cough, too, in the neighborhood. And their sturdy mother, who has had nothing to do with their nursing or care, seemed again pregnant...
