Surely you must have seen this coming?” Adele Winthrope Was sorry the moment the words Were out, they brought such a Saget look to her husband’s ce. “You know how things are in the market, Adele,” he said gently after a little silence. “There's al- Ways a chance that one may re- co Well, I just couldn’t.” you_sure it’s quite hope- less, dear? It may not be as bad as you think. There may still be a chance.” Adele wanted to en- courage him, to make up for what she had just said. + “I wouldn't have told you if 'd thought there was any chance, Adele. I've waited as long as long as I've dared.” It was Adele who finally broke the brief silence that followed Bart's words. 3 “Just what is this going-to mean to us?” she asked. “In immediate changes, I mean.” Plans “T= help up home will stay until summer,” Winthrope’s voice was weary, as if he had gone over and over the thing to himself so many times that talk- ing about it was tiresome. “I've put the place on the market. The poche will remian here in the asin; the crew will stay until they can find other jobs. I've taken it upon myself, Adele, to rent a cottage here for the re- mainder of the winter. I need the tun down from strain. g on there at the office can wrest anything e ck, he can. I've got nd forget there is such a business.

Tom Blodgett had lived during those days. He was proud of his daugh- ter’s cooking and often enter- tained bigwigs of the firm who came to look the Shirley plant over. “Of course, I know you. can, Adele,” Winthrope said quickly. “I knov you're a girl who can.do anything she sets her mind to.” “Bart, it doesn’t seem to me you're taking this as seriously as you should.

Although both the Red Raiders and Pepper's Plumbers sport the same 1.000 average held by the NavStas, the station employes hold a commanding position through the fact that they have played and won more games than either of the others.
