A delegation of strikers comes mnorth: to interview the president and directors. ‘They are received in Jerry‘s home, first Stedtman, then Henpig and Umanski, They do not meet with much success. Umaneki is dissatisfied with results. Clare is angry because her dinner party is interrupted _ by Jerry‘s business "I mean that that is where she was working. She‘s at her sister‘s nowâ€"up at Pittsburg. Left the tay before I was elected to come up here. I sent her a telegram." NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY "You don‘t say so," said Goodâ€" kind, then turned to Jerry with: "Amything the matter with that bell ?" "The man‘s busy, I suppose," said Jerry. "I‘ll show them out." The elder Goodkind shook hands graciously with Stedtman _ and Hennig. When he reached Umansâ€" ki he found the immobility he had encountered before. The tall figure burned him with his eyes. Stedtman turned at the door to whisper the promise of a visit later and Jerry, ushering them out, turnâ€" ed to inform his father that . they were "swine." The tardy servant entered with an explanation that he had been signing for » box he‘ carried, for Mrs. Goodkind. A moment later he handed it to her as she came from the music room. Clare envinced litâ€" tle curiosity. as to its contents, putting it under her arm unopened. "Rverybody gome?" queried Goodâ€" kind, looking up from a desk at which he had seated himself. ‘"They‘re all down in the billiard room," she said with an inflection that indicated she was either bored or angered.

"Substifute? For what?" "For my husband‘s time â€" and loveâ€"and companionship." She held up a stunning sable scarft and handed it unconcérnedly to her fatherâ€"in.law, "Noâ€", Whenever Jerry‘s been away longer than usual, or has done something he‘s a little ashamed of, there‘s something of this sort for me." ‘There was injured pride in her tone. "Hm! You don‘t seem much surâ€" prised," he said. "Yes," said Clare seriously, her eyes taking on a look of calculation. "Must have been a whopper this time," laughed Goodkind. ‘‘Pretty generous husband, if you ask me," said the husband‘s father airily. â€" "Yes." The answer was unconâ€" vincing. She put the scarf back into its box. Goodkind had caught the unhappiness in her attitude. "Upon my word," he said. "L know what you women want. A man works his heart and soul out to get you things and still you‘re not satisfied." Clare looked up appealingly. "Maybe we‘d like a little ‘heart and soul,‘ she said, taking his own words.. "You‘re mot crying?" he ud_d,l leaning over her. She looked up through tearâ€"blurred eyes and noddâ€" ed sheepishly. "My God," he said. "Can you beat it?" She rose and walked to a mirror.

But the wall had risen again and there was an awkward pause. It was Clare who broke the moâ€" mentary silence, a silence she dared not face because it brought memorâ€" ies, as all silences do. "I understand you‘re very happy in your newâ€"profession," she said, "Yes," he anewered. "You‘ve . got everything you want?" sheh pulsued, haltingly.
