But as Helen went down the three
flights of steps and made her way
through the street swarming with
children she had little hope of the girl
coming.
In spite of the better wages, better
food and healthier conditions OF

rarely leaves a factory to return to

social standard.

start out real early and give the whole

But, old. shabby. destitute as she
was, she hesitate to take it
"oh, no. ma'am. you needn't give me
carfare. I'm staying only about -
block from here-I walked down"
Helen insisted on her taking the
dime and with a thank you, ma am, -
she put it carefully in a little worn
purse.
AS she went out Helen looked after
her pityingiy. How could she ever
hope to get a position as general
houseworker? She was too old and
too shabby. Yet her advertisement
had read. Competent middle aged wo-
man wants place as cook or general
houseworker."
No doubt she had been competent
eight years ago. but her breath and
her shaking hands cried aloud of her
| incompetency now. Those eight years
as she grew older and her chances of
work grew less, had driren her to the
so1ace of drink.
And now-who would employ her
now? Helen pictured her going from
place to place with that worn eight
year-oid reference. until weary and
discouraged, she would seek a ommen-
tary alcoholic forgetfulness.
The doorbell rang again and Helen
felt relieved when she saw that her
