the dog-boy of Carnies Post
Should have included this with my previous post.
Roy again:
--But then, why does Charlie write: "Anyway, if you have any comments on the picture you would like to make, go ahead and make them to me and I will pass them along to Candy; she will be glad to hear from you."? Why should Candy be glad to hear from Weer?--
Because she's been perhaps prostituting herself to Den, and now wants further contact with (or money from) him. Once again from Charlie T.'s letter: "...I heard that Candy was trying to get Doris to turn a few tricks when Mrs. M. wasn't looking, so she could make some getaway money..." Apparently, Candy knows enough about the business from personal experience to explain, er, the ins-and-outs of the process to "Little Cinder."
Yet further evidence that ladies' man "Mr. M." may be Den Weer.
