Annette swung laxily In the ham

Albert Hawkins. who. immaculate and

nannei trousers, sat on the grass be-
side her and tried not TO squirm un-

quite well was finding him wanting.
Back In the city Annette had liked
Albert pretty well. His theater tickets
and candy. flowers and the occasional
taxicab that he managed TO get out OF
his comfortable salary had appealed
TO her. She had even imagined that
she was in love with Albert. Now she
looked at his thin. straight form and
somewhat sallow face, compared II
with the young overalled giant who
was whistling TO the dogs in the next

Albert Hawkins was head buyer In
the linen department OF the same
store in which Annette was telephone
