peep at the much talked-of Checkers

dollar gold piece she gave him for a keep
sake, and she says sadly, How could you,

and she springs to her feet, her sadness
displaced by a look Of joy and she cries.

difference, and that the audience likes the

applause which Ereets her very human, II
not quite moral, exclamation. But II isn't
merely the fact that Checkers has won a
