We were talking about you. He'd heard about Cross and Cleas- by's failure and wanted to know whether you were in a new posi- tion. Of course T said you were not, and that you were horribly discouraged. He pencilled an ad- dress. You know the rest. You're so ungracious about accepting fa- vors that we both agreed to keep Dicky’s name a secret. Unfortu- nately you nosed out our secret. You go on, Dicky.” “There isn't much left.” Dak refilled his tumbler and again re- laxed. “Santa’s no longer my wife, but T'm still interested in her wel- fare.

Dak knew himself together. “Surely not be- cause T was once married to her?” “I'm afraid so,” Clive nodded. “Petty of me.” Dak flipped his ash. “Mid-Victorian.

She laughed emotionally. “How I deserved too such good men.” The door had closed behind Dak. In the hall Santa sighed against Clive. “I'm so glad that's settled!” “So am T, Santa.” “You said that queerly, dearest. He raised her face and kissed solemnly. “Little woman!” “Just what do you mean Clive?” “That after this evening more than ever, T can't accept.” She stared at him without an- ger. “Why?" A thousand reasons rushed his mind, which concentrated one reason. “The way he looked at you. He knows as much about you as I do.” She retreated! When some min- utes later he went to join her, the door was locked. He tapped. No answer. That night with coats and cushions he contrived for him- self a make-shift bed on the couch. Unreffeshed, he rose early and left the apartment without seeing her. There was only one way now in which he could win her respect. A few minutes after Mr. Cleasby had entered his office, Clive was shown in. Mr. Cleasby glanced up, frowning over his spectacles. “What's the matter, my boy? You look as though you'd spent the night on a park bench?” “It’s that job, sir. I can't take it. You said something about let- ting you know if I didn't.” “What I said was if you didn't, we might come to an arrange- ment. How much do you consider you're worth?” They sat and chatted till the mail was brought in. Mr. Cleasby cut short the interview. “When do you want to siart?” “Today, sir, if it suits you.” Back at his old desk, in the atmosphere of routine, fears by which he had been menaced re- into in treated. His hand itched to tele- phone Santa; he fought off the temptation. As he was approaching the apartment house, whom should he see but Dak, going in the same di- rection. Now that he was quit of his predecessor’s philanthropies, he bore him no animosity. He could see even the comic side of the en- counter. “Hello, you Samaratin!” He clapped him on the shoulder. Dak started. “Look here, old man. T think you're making a great mistake.” “Well, have your breath. You can say it all before Santa.” { 307 Goldstein Building Phone Office, 216 DRS.
