LABOR ATOET TECHNICIAN CHAPTER III CHARLES MOWRY might not understand what was in Bar bee French's heart that morning but he could at least read the determination in her lace. He capitulated. "I'll be glad to have) vou in the class. Barbee. You know that." Warm lights danced in his eye. its he looked down at her. But he could be de termined, too. "Remember, if you enroll you'll have to take a Job when the course is finished." "That's what I want," Barbee told him firmly. He told her where to go to sign up, and stood watching while she swung down the corridor. Barbel found that class work didn't start until the following week, and she was glad of that It would give her more time to spend with Ned during his last week. But as it turned out she saw surprisingly little of him. He seemed to have a thousand things to do. He was on the go almost constantly. Even his last morning had to be shared with someont else. Barbee and Molly together had made quite an occasion of his lasi meal at home. Molly cooked th breakfast herself, and there were all of Ned's favorite dishes. Sc many of them that Ned laughed: "You trying to feed me up foi the duration, Molly?" The old colored woman chuckled "Yas suh. Mister Ned. And Ah'll send you a box of cookies, jest as soon as Ah gets youah address. "Now you're talking, Molly," Ned approved. "Every week. Re member." "Yas suh. Mister Ned. Yassuh." Molly lifted the corner of her apron and furtively wiped her eyes. TT was Barbee who first spied the tall athletic girl waiting on the station platform. Even then it didn't occur to Barbee that she was there to see Ned. "Ned. isnt that Delia Over" she started to say, and then the tall girl saw them and came quickly toward them. She and Ned caught bands and clung together rather breathlessly for a moment "I cut my classes this morning," she explained. "I had to see you leave." "You know Delia Overstreet?" Ned turned to his father. Mr. French acknowledged the Introduction and Barbee mur mured a rather stiff, "Good morn ing."" For a moment she resented the other girl's intrusion. 'And then she saw Ned's face and was ashamed of her selfish ness. "I must be glad about anything that makes him glad," she told herself contritely. He was so young and perhaps with so short a time for happiness. From the way he looked at Delia her being there to tell him goodby certainly added to that happiness. Barbee soon found that the chemistry course wasn't going to be a snap. There was practically a year of chemistry crowded into a concentrated 10-week course Arid that time was further short ened by pressing need for tech nicians in the war industries. Per sonnel men from ordnance plants came to interview the girls about employment and Charles Mowry, as instructor in charge, recom mended the most advanced stu dents in the class for jobs before they finished the course. Barbee was in this group. She knew it was largely due to Charles' friendly help in class and at home evenings that she had done so well, and she didn't wan) to disappoint him. But taking job out of town presented diffi culties that she hadn't counted on With Ned gone, she hated very much to leave her father alone, and spoke about it to Charles. - a "TSNT there any place here in A town that needs laboratory technicians?" she demanded plain tively. "We've had a call from one local plant," Charles admitted. "But you wouldn't be interested in it." "Why?" i "It's a factory where they make gas masks. You'd be testing car-' bon. Incredibly dirty work." Barbee's face flushed angrily. "Charles, when will you under FUNNY BUSINESS mm "Getting into the hammock's 1 g ma . COPYRIOHT. 1(43, NCA SERVICC. INC stand? I'm not looking'for a white collar Job. I want a real job, a war Job, and I don't care how dirty it is." Charles gave her a long specu lative look. "All right," he said at last. He took a card out of his pocket and wrote something on the back of it. At first glimpse the Duncan Brick Company wasn't at all prepossessing, a smoke-shrouded cluster of buildings inside a high barber wire fence with a squat guard house at the entrance. A man in uniform stopped her at the gate with a brusque: "Who do you want to see. Miss?"

She showed the guard the card Charles had given her, Ha seemed doubtful. "Wail here. I'll call the laboratory and ice." He was back in a moment, shade more courteous this time "This way, please." Ho led hei through the guard house and pointed to a muddy roadway be tween dark buildings. "Back that way. You'll find the laboratory door marked." She found it almost at the end of the road. It was a plain wooden door, crudely hand lettered with the single word, LABORATORY. Barbee reached to open it just as someone mside yanked it back. Caught off balance she stumbled into a man's arms.
