That's all. Miss Weir" he said.
when he reached the last letter. Bring
those In for verification and signature
as soon as you can get them done"
In the course of time she completed
the letters and took them back. Bush
glanced over each, and appended his
signature.
That's ALL Miss weir,"'he' said POI
litely. THANK you"
And Hazel went back to her ma
chine, wondering why she had been
requested to do those letters when
Nelly Morrison had nothing better to
do than sit picking at her type faces
with toothpick.
She learned the Significance Of it the
next morning. however, when the of
fee boy told her that she was wanted
by Mr.. Bush. This time when she en-
tered Nelly Morrison's place was va
cant. Bush was going through his
mail. He waved her to a chair.
AUST n minute" he said.
Presently he wheeled from the desk
and regarded her with disconcerting
frankness-as II he were appraising
her, point by point. so to speak.
NATURALIZATION to you yesterday
was in the nature of try-out, Miss
Weir" he finally volunteered. Miss
Morrison has asked to be transferred
to our Midland branch. Mr.. Allan
recommended you. The work will not
be hard. but must have someone de-
pendable and discreet, and careful to
avoid errors. I think you will manage
II very nicely II you-nh-have no OBJ
lection to giving up the more general
work of the office for this. The salary
Will be considerably more"
"If you consider that my work will
be satisfactory" Miss Weir began.
II don't think there's any doubt on
that score. You have a good record In
the office" he Interrupted smilingly
this correspondence"
Thus her new duties began There
was an air of quiet in the private Of
fee. greater luxury Of appointment.
which suited Miss Hazel Weir to
nicely. The work was no more difl-
cult than she had been accustomed to
doing-a trile less In volume. and

they came abreast of him. he rose and
lifted his hat at the very slight incli-
