Another perfect day shone in that
narrow Spanish street. Up in Manhat-

browning huge piles of snow with
posters announcing their attractions.
Ferries were held up by ice In the
river. A breeze from the arctic swept
round the Flatiron building. Here
lazy summer lolled on the bosom OF
the town.
In the hotel dining room Mr.. Minot
encountered Jack Paddock, superb in
white flannels above his grapefruit.
He accepted Paddock's invitation to
