She had always wanted to be decent— had always held herself apart from the common people she necessarily had to associate with—and then came the surprising moment when folks who represented all that she thoughit, was fine and decent tried to buy her off. Falsely accusing her, they offered her money to leave town. Glad She's Common “You,” she cried as she flung the money back, “You—the nice decent people—are the real cheap ones—trying to put. a price on something that there can't be a price for. If that's decency, I'm glad T'm common.” So the mather who, prided, her- self on her, decency,, separated her and the common girl he loved six years—six years of climb- to dizzy heights of fame for the girl—but the day comes when the mother takes a lesson in de- cency from the girl she despised.
