she asked. "Because. it you have,

wide with misery. The look at geld

"No. i haven't finished," he tiered.
“You've got to listen to me. This is

Bruce stared at her.
What do you mean?"

Barbers. Her voice almost trembled
with triumph.

Barbara followed him to the door.
“We'll say goodby. then." she almost
cooed. "You're a nice boy. Bruce,
but you don‘t understand me. it‘s
lucky i found it out when I did."
He looked at her outstretched
hand. Barely touching it. he said.
"Goodby." As he stepped through
the door. he put on the hat. crushing
the rebel lock that stood on the
crown at his head.
When Mrs. Hawley returned {rout
a. shopping trip, that evening. she
found Barbara. in the kitchen. stand-
ing over the ironing board. A pile of
miscellaneous garments lay nearby
on a chair. she was whistling a little
out of tune, and plunging through
the pressing Job with reckless guy-
ety.
"Well. Bubs." cried her mother.

"Good news. mumsy." cried Bor-

She had had no idea. that life was
stirring so early. that crowds oi peo-
ple \vcrc swarming into restauranis
and olilce buildings beiore she rose
in leisurely fashion to make ready
for nine o‘clock school.
These cro' to of people, the smoky
fog that con. Ml the face at the early
sun. the lllm of frost over the side-
walks—the bustle of the lunch coun-
ters behind their plate glass windows
-all of these things were part of a
picture that later came to typify to
Barbara her whole life as a working
woman.
She walked rapidly. atter alighting
from the interurhan. trying not to
think at the ordeal that lay ahead of
her. As she neared the building in
which the offices of the Telegraph
were. she saw a clock. It said seven~
twenty. She stored up at the win-
dows o! the editorial room. Even at
this distance, the tobacco smoke hue
over the electric lights was visible.
Barbara turned and walked away.
There was still time to walk around
the block and get her nerve back.
