(NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY) MAY‘s next position was in the adVei-ttsing department ot a . large store. Her work there censist‘ed mainly of addressing on volume. Sometimes she addressed as many as live hundred a day. Dut this was not encushr A thousand a day was the number required, and at the end of the second week my gave up her Job. she rented a typewriter. took it home. and for three days practiced on it. But neither her speed nor her accuracy increased. It was Md to believe that only ten years ago one bed been a first-rate typist who could turn out a hundred letters a any! . Every night she read the "Help Wanted" ads carefully. but failed to see anything promising. She lied very little motley, and she lived on sods crackers and coffee for several lays. . l‘inally she made up her roles to take snythlng in the way of a fob. “Anything" proved to be tiling and errand running in the cities of a large Qatern railroad. 3 r i i‘ r * ii ll. ii. iii. i It, _ - "i“Willi " . l'il‘l‘uilfii.il pl Klimt“ ‘.‘ 'H\l you.” she said in a whisper. urday. May tore open her envelope and looked'at the money she had sieved for all week lens. . . . There had been a time when she had spent that much. and more, every week on lunches downtown and for gasoline for her car. Now it must buy her food. pay her rent. and supply her with what clothes she needed. '6 no. she had had to buy very few clothes. The dresses and shoes slid hid bought in Atlantic City. months ago. were still smart and fresh looking. As a matter of fact. they were much too smart to be worn by an Ohio. girl in a railroad ofiico. my caught the other girls in the place iookin esknnce at her once or twice. T of seemed to be won- dering why a girl who wore hand- made dresses and custom-made shoes should be working for iii a week. Any pair of shoes she bud cost more than “e . . . that was plain D be seen! And the other girls told such other so in, the washroom where they gathered to gossip. knew that they gossiped about her: and so she made no of- fort to be friendly with them. al- though she needed friends. She sat alone in the darkest cor~ nor of the room. walled off from the othm by tho nllng cases. and worked like a machine day in and day out. for two menths.. Three or film times Gloria Gregu ory telephoned to ask Mny out for Sunday night supper. But May re- fused. She knew that sits couldn't afford to return their hospitality. for one thing. But there was another reason for her repeated refusals. . . . The very sight of Gloria's happiness in her home had suddenly become un- "All my Ii 6 . . .

In the siting phrase of the cities. she "turned them down cold." Attractive young chaps they were. too. but not to May. She had fallen into the Mini habit of contrasting all men with Ulysses F'crgan. This one was not so tall as he. or so goodtlooklng. That one walked with u. slouch. while Ulysses Will! up straight as an arrow, and walked with the grace of n trained soldier. One afternoon a group of four men walked into the office to confcl with Mr. Doulungcr, the elites mun- ngcr. All four of them were the sleek, well-fed. well-dressed type of successful business man. May found herself comparing them with Ulysses . . greatly to Ulysscs’ advantage, as usual. The truth suddenly flashed upon her . . . she was in love with Ulysses! She was 'in love with lliml . . . That was why all other men looked gray and uninteresting to her! , The friendly feeling she had ai- wnys bud for him . . . the feeling of loneliness that lay like lead at the bottom of her heart . . . that- was love and she had never guessed it . . She sat there staring at the blank wall in front of her. so wrapped in her own thoughts that she was uns- ware that someone was standing be- side hcr-deslt, until a large roll of paper was laid before her. “Day dreaming. Mrs. Seymour?" asked the booming bass voice of Mr. Boulungcr. the office manager. "I—I think I was." lituy'faltered. She looked up and smiled at Mr. THE EVENING SENTINEL—SO. NORWALK, cons. its bad a way of lookin at U”. of standing too close to or when be talked to her. that was insulting. May felt very sorry for Mrs. Boul- anger. a white-faced little woman who brought her husband to the cities every morning and called for him every night-«la if she didn't dare to trust him out of her lint. "Well. if you’re daydream!!! about roe. ! don't mind your doing it." bublod Mr. Boulanger. “AMI these papers—" He pointed to the roll on May's desk with a at for. linger. “About these papers—you're to take them up to Mr. Forged-J . . . Ulysses x. li'organl When Mr. Bouianger had gone. Msy sat perfectly still looking down at the roll of papers. bound together by a thick elastic band. it was the most ordinary roll of paper linsginea his. and yet to May that April after- noon it looked like the We Car- pet of Bagdad. For it was the means of taking her to the man she lovedl Outside there was sunshine and a high wind that tossed scraps of pa; per over the city street! like white butterflies over a meadow. The very small of springtime was in the air . . ‘. as if the fragrance of all the daffodils and burgeoning buds out in the countgy lanes had found its way into the gray town. And without warning something very like springtime blossomed in May's breast. It was as it all the coldness and the loneliness went out of it, as miraculously as winter leaves the earth. . . . For the first time in months and months she was happy . I . Won- derfully happy. In all her life. she could not remember such happiness so this. . . .

He was trying to decide which would bore him least . . . to go out and play golf. or to go home and putter in the garden. Neither prospect lured him much. When he went out to play golf. ho ' spent most of his time comparing the women on the links with May Seymour . . . wondering how she would look in a scarlet golf sweater and leather skirt. And if he went home to dig in the garden. he would picture Berth." standing on the gmveied path b0 tween the rows of budding plants, with the sun in her eyes . l . lie got up suddenly and put on his hat. . . . He'd get out and walk off his mood! No use to stay here and brood about a woman who didn't care the open of her white flour for him. At that insthnt the door opened and the woman. herself. walked into his miles. "A package for you from Mr. Boulnnger." she said, demursly. snd laid a large. rubber-strapped bundle on his desk. Ulysses stored and stuttered. “Y-you working for him?" be asked. "Yes." May answered. She throw back her head with s defiant move- ment. “l'm his office girl." she said. Then she turned to go. She had reached the door. and her hand was on the knob when he stopped her. "Wait." he said. and she turned and faced him quietly. The length of the cities was be- . tween them. May measured it with her eye. She had once thought she would lilo. to be footloose . . p. to tunnel all the high-roads of the world . . . but now she knew that the only road for her was the few feet of space ba- twcen her and Ulysses Forges. She never know whether or not he called her to come to him. She never knew how she crossed the floor or that oflies of his. All she knew . . . all she wanted to know . . . was that she was in his WI. close held “float his breast. "Allmylife. . . itseotnotolno . . . l'vs been trying to and my way here . . . to you." she said in a whisper so low that Ulysses could hardly hear what she said. But he did hear. and he held her even more closely . . . held her so if he would never let her :0. And as May looked up at him. she knew beyond all doubt that life held no better thing for her . . . or for any other woman . . . than this: to be in the arms of the manshe NEWS F_(__)_R THEATRE-GOERS ——....-.._,‘-__ _ PAGE SEVEN —.——__. - —- W......d “a...“ Palace Theatre FIVE ACTS BROAD And the GEORGE LABT TIMES TODAY . “AMERICAN PLUCK” —- with ~— WAY VAUDEVILLE Picture ' WALSH SUNDAY KENNETH --in~— “RANGER OF THE BIG PINES” EVENING HARLAN 1- a l . a 'r n It Today Only Estelle Taylor __.,ln-... “Passion’s Pathway” THEATRE NOTES AT THE nmuio. ‘— “Tlic \l'lnding Stair."
