Indifference ranking in her heart,
Jennie went down to the great city.
The place Miss Kraft had found for
her was that of a saleswOman in a
cheap department store downtown.
The pay was so small that though
she shared a small, cOmfOTtless room
with another girl, prepared her slen-
der breakfast over a gas jet, and ate
a, ten-cent lunch, there was very lit
tie left at the end of the week. Out
of this meager amount she sent
something to her mother with reas-
surfing words of a raise in her salary.
At first it seemed to Jennie she would
not be able to stand the priVatiOr and
hard work; but pride and a determi-
nation to hold on kept her at it.
Miss Kraft conducted a club for
working girls on the East Side, and |
she asked Jennie to join. The mem
bers were mostly of foreign parent
age and included Russian Jews, |
Poles, ROUmanians, Germans, Scan !
dinavians and Italians. At first Jen-
ME, all unused to their manner and |
mode of expression, unwittingly held |
herself aloof. But she found them
so bright, so responsive and with |
such an eager desire to learn, that |
soon all barriers were IeveIed by the |
spirit of camaraderie in the quest of /
a common cause. The subjects for
discussion ranged all the way from
domestic hygiene to a study of
Browning; and interest amounting
to enthusiasm was never lacking.
In June the club discontinued for
the summer. Miss Kraft informed the
girls she was going to be married in
two weeks and would not be back
until September. The firm that en-
ployed Jennie failed in August and
closed it's doris. Then began a dis
couraging search for work. When
day after day of the weary tramp Of
the hot streets resulted in nothing,
and Jennie beheld her small store of +
money nearing the vanishing DOint

needed money to buy materials, so
she took the train for home.
Her mother, glad beyond express
sion to see her, could not, however,
conceal the fact that finances were.
at very low ebb. But Jennie in the
club and in the tour of the exchanges
had learned a few things which she
meant to put to practical use. There
was still some fruit on the place, the
plums were looking well and wild
blackbeTTies in plenty were to be had
for the picking Jennie had arranged
with two Of the exchanges to try her
jellies and jams, and while she did
not know much about making them,
she knew her mother did, and she
could learn, so she set to work. The
first consignment sold a bit slowly,
but there was an encouraging call for
more.
The next Unheard-Of thing she at
tempted was the forming Of a girls
club for mutual improvement and So
cial enjoyment. She had obtained
permission to use the schOOlrOOm for
the first meeting. Either through a
misunderstanding, sheer deviltry or
overmastering curiosity, several of
the, girls brothers and sweethearts
dTffted in and sat together in the
back seats. The girls were up in
front, curious and eXpectant Jennie
beheld the male contingent with just
a touch of dismay. She also discov-
cred Joe Burrows among them.
When she rose on the little platform
the noise faded off into silence.

in a small place like this, although
we are thrown together a good deal,
we never really know each other
