Miss, before she
sinks."
  "Flying the Atlantic?"

see dear Daddy's
face when he hears
I've run away with
you after all -- and
lost his aeroplace
besides!"

  "I've arranged for
the Captain to
marry us."
  "You've arranged!
Don't I arrange
anything?"
  "You think your money
entitles you to do all
the arranging."
  "My money enabled
me to fly half across
the Atlantic to join
you."
  "And your father
thinks his money
enables him to insult
me by wireless."
  "You'll not spoit my
trip -- I'll have a
good time in Paris
in spite of your silly
ideas."

PARIS
  Paris -- revelry --
and at last the
longed for arrival.
  "You've neglected me
for a whole week."
  "Come on in -- I've
met some lively
people -- invented
a new cocktail --
and bought a lot of
snappy gowns."
  "Hold everything!
The next one's a
knock-out!"
  "I've always understood
that simplicity was
the keynote of good
taste."
  "If I've offended
your good taste
I must try to
make amends."
  "Which do you think
the most charming
creation?"
  "The wearer,
undoubtedly."
  "You here, daddy!
What a pleasant
surprise!"
  "Betty, I've something
very serious to say
to you -- alone."
  "That dress suits you
better than you know."
  "I followed you -- the
market broke -- and
I have just learned
that we're ruined."
  "Wall-street took
advantage of my
absence."
  "We've lost all our
money -- I suppose
you're happy now."
  "He's gone -- just
as I thought."
  "Daddy, we've still
got my jewellery --
I'll sell it all."
  "I didn't find fault
with you -- and
you lost millions."
  "I baked these
myself, Daddy."
  "I'm not very
hungry to-day."
  "Now I've found you
I'm going to take
you out of this
wretched place."
  "Do you think I'd
leave Daddy now?"
  "I'd even look after
your father."
  "Very kind of you --
-- but you needn't
bother."
  "You seem to forget
there's such a thing
as pride."
  "You can't live on
pride."
  "I shall get a job."
  "You'll make a mess
of it, as you do
everything you lay
your hands on."

  "What brought you
in here?"
  "Teeth!"
  "We're only interested
in legs here."
  "I must have come in
the wrong door --
but it's all the same
to me if you can give
me a job,"
  "I am interested in
a cabaret -- I can
place you there."
 
  "I wouldn't go near
him just now, dearie."
  "How dare you inter-
rupt my dinner --
don't you see I'm the
maître d'hotel?"
  "I'm so sorry, I
thought you were
a gentleman."
  "For gentlemen in
evening dress only."
  "But you said 'gentlemen
in evening dress'."
  "What do you call
that one?"
  "It's a maiden's
prayer."
  "Strange that we should
meet again -- and in
a place like this."
  "I used to pay to
come to places
like this -- now they pay me."
  "Someone has taken
my table -- get me
another."

a place like this?"

flower girls."
  "For a beginner, you
sure know how to
pick 'em, kid."
  "It's bad enough to
find you here, but
worse to find you
enjoying it."
  "How dare you, a
daughter of mine, disgrace yourself
like this!"
  "But -- I was only
trying to help you, daddy."
