Georgie sighed, as she turued the feorner and walked into Nelly Fos. jter. “You're tate,” Mog. The time had passed quickly after all, “Where shall we go?” Georgie asked. “I thought we'd go to my room,” Nelly said. She avoiéed Georsie’s ~eyes, and there was a hard note in her voice. “I thought I'd show you the sori of place 1 live in, so that you need not go on being friends with me any more unlese you want to.” “It won’t make apy difference,” Georgie assured per. “But’l'd like to see your room.” “We'll get on this ‘bus.” She bundled Georgie op and sat down Deside her. “I'm glac the rain’s stopped,” she said. “I can’t afford to ruin my clothes.” She looked at the girl. “What have you been do ing?” “I went to the pictures.” “Oh, to see Nicholas Boyd I sup- pose.” ~ “No, he wasn’t on.

Georgie’s steps slowed a little. There was a closed car outside too, a car Georgie knew well for it belonged to the doctor who some- times visited her upcle and told him he must stop dripking eee he wanted to dig. Alf, the handy man, was standing beside the car, and Georgie crossed the road and said good evening to him. “I hope Mrs.’ Spears is not il1?”' she asked.
