of the great Office building that housed
the Berg, Shriner Company. Down the
marble hallway he went and into the
reception room. A cruel test it was,
that reception room, with the cruelty
peculiar to the modern in business.

toned rug, its Jacobean chairs, its
magazine-laden cathedral oak table,
its pot of bright flowers making a

richness of the room, it was no place
for the shabby, the down-and-out, the
cringing, the rusty, or the mendi-
cant.
