They wan- dered across the tablecloth to John's cocktail glass. The fingers of his right hand encircled the stem and she noticed with a start that they were just the same, strong and gnarled, with the nails cut off like a me- chanic’s, the cuticles growing far out, as it he had never had s manicure. She saw then that his suit, although an expensive tweed, looked almost shabby for want of pressing. She looked away. With & sense of shame, unfaithfulness almost, she tried to crush the thoughts darting through her mind. He was very like the John of 11 years ago, but, well, 11 years ago his lhnbblnul had been unavoidable. “Where are you living?” she asked. “We have a farm in Maryland. I rarely get into the city.

There was an awkward silence. He felt that he was expected to say something, but all at once he didn't know what to say. As Julie stepped into her car she sald, “Come on up to my apartment. I'm having a group of people in for cocktails.” John shook his head. “My wife is expecting me home for dinner.” He looked embarrassed, as if he had intended to say something quite different. He shook Julie's hand with the same bone-crushing sincer- ity of his newspaper days. “But it's been good seeing you again,” he said. “vals,hxwuldmtommnnm Julie nodded, smiling. *T under- AUTO SHOW PUZZLE CONTEST.
