CHAPTER t
Certain glrle plodded away in
a office yew alter year. Thy grew
bored with ol(k conlinemtnt,
( with th forced propinquity of
uncongenial persons: they wearied
of Juncbct packed tn bags, of
wet fact and coid fingers, of cry
nin summary atraeu where
chaff and papers and dust held a
oanc vry aiurooon.
Ytt they went on and on. ut
to earn the laU anotkty that en
abled tbam to fo on and on. Th
absurdity of K began to ampress
Jennifer strongly.
Desperately determined not to
be ebeaied of their Urthrlghi,
the ouh girl vera eternally
planning festivtuea. Jennifer
heard of dancee that were gayer
than taey wer safe, of bike, of
attain at tught dub and road
bouse tna endeo with th boy
angry and frustrated, and the
eucragad girl returning by bus.
Someuniea there bad been an ac
cident on Sunday nlghi fender
bumped, glass smashed, some
body 1 ana broken, or somebody
dom cut, and always the girl
were buying apparel; if only a
new bra or stocking.
Jennifer snared none of this.
She bad entered the office young
and stay, and while she liked and
laughed at and quit at bom

That afternoaa an took borne
from the library a bonk on famous
woman, hoping that ah might get
some jigni were But Cleopatra,
Hester Stanhope, Frances Wil
lard and Florence Nightingale did
Btue to enlighten ner.
Her thought came back to one
point. She would be rich and
beautiful and admired someday:
splendidly dressed, surrounded by
friends. It was thus eld Borrow
would find her when he came
humbly to renew their friendship.
And then she would punish him
as he bad punished her.
She knew perfectly well that
there was nothing deliberately
cruel In his behavior. If they met
he would be his friendly, self
confident self. Feverently she
grayed with every wish of her
eart that they might meet.
Eugene Evans cam to sea her
about every other week. She had
sat In great discomfort In the
untidy little dining room with
' him while the children clamored
for attention, complaining about
the necessity of going to bad, the
loss of toothbrushes, the mean
ness of teachers.
Jennifer dreaded and disliked
these visits thoroughly; aha could
not imagine that Eugene enjoyed
them. After each one she con
cluded In some humiliation and
some relief that he would never
by any chance come again. But
come ns
did.
After his third call Jennifer
put the little-used parlor In order
' and settled Elna In Betty's bed,
to be moved to the parlor couch
when Eugene left.
Sometime Jennifer and Eugene
walked around the block. Jennifer
let him do most of the talking.
He paid so deferential an atten
tion to whatever she chanced to
say and she grew somewhat dif
fident about expressing an opin
ion. He would consider it, analyze
it, perhaps challenge it and refer
to it later with such respect that
she was reduced to her one Infal
lible defense, which was laughter.
"What are you laughing at?" he
would demand seriously.
"Why, hist because you look so
grave and I didn't mean I real
ly dont know anything about ltl
I )ust said that to say some
thing," Jennifer would stammer.
"But you said"
"I know I did I But I dont
really care one way or another."
"But then why express your
selft" "Oh. Cent, I dont know I And
I wish to goodness you'd atop
coming to see me If you're going
to take everything as if It was I
aid In a court of law!"
laughter was her only escape
from the strain of his rixld
morality, his stern examination
of hi own motives and those
of everyone else. HI spirit was
tortured br anxieties; mankind
was too deeply rooted In evil
to make tenable even the slight
est hop for the world. Childhood
reached the age of responsibility
all ton soon, and at seven sin
could take possession of the soul.
Afterwards all was darkness,
weakness, confusion, wrongdoing
Jennifer laughed. But she
laughed to save herself from the
Infection of his certainties. If Eu
gene was right, then the sudden
moment of emotional weakness
that could assail a girl of
eighteen, the yielding to nsture
and to love, was fearfully and
frlghtenlngly wrong. She hd
been trying to put the whole ex
perience behind her, to Ignore it.

"Doe It hold back the king

asked somewhat timidly
"If wrong. Little or big, every

he wa alway arrlous; now his
gravity bream even deeper
-we've got to b perfect, you and
I, Jennifer. Keep the law," he said
urgently. "Welcome beggars to our
table, have only on coat, forgive
everyone lorgir everything;

fer aald, relieved to b clear of
reproach on this score at least "I

-Good lord. So. you angel!" he I
said with th unwilling laugh that
