He will likely have an opportunity to vote for the beer and wine tax at is that it will be different.

Afier the customary formalities he was ushered into his employer’s cen. Mr. Cleasby pushed back his chair out and eyed him over the top of his spectacles. “I've behaved badly,” Clive fore- stalled reproaches. “The reasons were exceptional. I've been away getting married.” “Marriage isn't exceptional.” The old man spoke grimly. Clive repeated for Mr. Cleasby the story of his continuing love for Santa, his discouragement when she married Dicky, the trag- edy of that failure. “Then she's a widow.” Clive shook his head. “On my return from Europe I discovered she was considering a divorce. That was why, against your wishes, I was so strong for remaining in America.” “Two weeks ago I learned that she was on the point of going back to him. She was in a panic. He'd shown signs of wanting her at a crisis when she was persuaded that no one ever again would want her. He would only have dragged her down. To prevent that I proved to her that I wanted her.” “This mania for rescuing forlorn maidens,” he smiled crookedly. “we've all had it. It reads very romantically. Unfortun@tely knight errants are out of date. This is the day of enlightened selfishness. I presume you looked ahead to what will be said?” “I'm not sure that I care” “You will—if not for your own sake, for hers. She's young, I ga- ther.” “The loveliest girl in the world.” Mr. Cleasby looked away at the barricaded sky-line, toothed and cruel as public opinion. “They all are,” he chuckled. “If they're not now, they were.” He turned. “To protect her will re- quire all your patience.” “I'm prepared for that.” Clive rose. “By the way, sir, if there eny chance of my being sent to Europe?

At parting, he grasped his hand. “Too bad things should have happened this way, I'm sorry.” What was there to be sorry about? The spring evening was gliding the length of lower Broad- way. Clive flushed with resent- ment. To be sorry for him, was a reflection on Santa. He had hoped to hear himself congratu- lated. But the old were always en- vious of the young. Mr. Cleasby was a bachelor. He mistrusted risks that he had never taken. Plunging into a florists on the point of closing, he departed with a box the size of a young coffin. |Copyright, 1931, 1932, Coningsby Dawson.)
