would reveal himself in time she had
ne doubt, but she wanted him to be
clean and handsome and she did not

had not got their fall coats yet. so
Muriel knew hat she would have to
wait. She dropped down upon a seat
and sat staring at the long line of
coats on the wire, and it came to her
that they had in them the possibility
Of unlimited warmth and c~oziness.

She only knew that he vas q new

She felt that she was being studied
