sion in France-a terrible wreck. 1t
was nighttime, but there was light
enough to see something Of the havoc
and the tragedy. The project Of the

already on the spot organizing the
work of rescue. Suddenly from ono
Of the first-class carriages which had
stayed on the rails and somehow cs-
capped being telescoped emerged a
stout man still about half-asleep. He
had as yet only very misty notion
Of what had happened. File had. in
fact, been so deeply immersed in slum'
Der that he had felt hardly more than
Il slight shock. The first thing that
he saw clearly was the project wear
ing his sash of Office and busy attend
ing to the wounded. He gave an OK
clnmation of mild surprise. For the
man half-aslcep was also a project.
Almost as if he were passing the time
Of day with a colleague encountered
by chance on the boulcvards Of Paris,
he spoke.
"Well, WE'LL" he said, "what are you
doing here?'
