something raucously which I couldn't
understand. A man seated by the
driver in a taxi abreast of ours called
to the boy, who made his way to the
side of the slowly moving machine,
and handed up a paper in exchange
for a coin. AS the man unfolded it
lines:
Report of Armistice Signing I'm
founded"
For a long agOnized moment the
black headlines of the paper merged
into the buildings and the street in
one swirling darkness of misery. Then
as my eyes cleared I turned to Lillian.
"Oh what does it mean ?" I asked.
"It cannot be that this is all a mis-
take"
She put her hand over mine, firmly,
reassuringly.
Even if it should be, and I strong
ly suspect that the news hasn't yet
been confirmed she said gravely,
don't you know that this elimination
is only a matter of days, perhaps
hours? 1t is too bad, of course, if it
should turn out to be q premature an
nouncem ent, for the spontaneity will
be taken away from the reception Of
the real news. But the armistice is
coming, as surely as Fate, and IN the
m eantime, well-suppose we initiate
in our own mild way the philosophy
of the gentleman on the curb
l followed her eyes to the pave
ment, where a large man in an ad-
vanced state of joyous righteousness
was dancing a jig upon the torn rem
nants of a paper bearing the same
headlines I had seen
Nobody nor nothin' can spoil my
celebration" he was asserting noisily.
"That's my motto for the after
noon" Lillian said decisively.
But under my outward acquiescence
lurked the throbbing anguish of know
ing that my soldier husband was not
vet out of danger.
