CHAPTER CxxuI


When Mr.. Mandol came he brought
with him flowers for both Ruth and
her aunt. His thoughtfulness always ap.
pealed to Ruth. And that night, as
always, it soothed her wounded feelings
to a degree.
Ruth really felt chagrined as well az
hurt that Brian had-as she thought
consoled himself with Mollie King wheA
she had been obliged to be away on bus
mess; and now she was doubly hun,
and chagrined that she was with him
overseas. She knew that she was Mol

Yet Brian seemed to prefer Mollie, her
company. She had yet to learn that

returned, thinking of the difference be-

" A man has to be now-o-days, if he

he was hurting Ruth, or that his praist
of her guest of the night before was
painful on account Of her feeling that
Brian had not accomplished what hO
might, simply because he lacked appi

Mandel wondered at Ruth IS lack OF
