The only opposition to Lenin came
from Nine. Kollontay and some Of

The express drew alongside Of the bridge
station platform. Tubbs did not get out.
On the contrary he leaned back in his seat,
rode on past South Ferry and over to the
Brooklyn terminus. There he leisurely
took another train back. 1t appeared that
Thomas Tubbs actually was trying to see
how late he could be.
Instead Of $40 it was SAT when Tubbs
entered the office, and, disregarding the
clammy atmosphere of sympathy that hung
about each desk at his appearance, walked to
the rostrum of the city editor. There was a
sadness in his step, as in that Of one whom
unkind Fate had not passed lightly by.
Under his arm he carried a morning news
paper that was folded open at the obituary
notices.
The city editor looked at Tubbs. Ordi-
narily when the city editor did that
Tubbs, even when most virtuous, felt little
uneasy at the pit of his stomach. This
morning, however, he only passed his hand
wearily across his eyes.
BE did not waste any time.
There was a man who lived next door
to me-" he said; 'he died. His name was
stokes-Bernard Weevyl Stokes. Here is
the notice Of his funeral this morning.
The old man didn't say anything.

need-if you can't keep 1t in a column, take

History tells of agonizing moments that
try the hearts of brave men as they stand
face to face with doom. Tubbs had never
cared for any of these people b..:re. Sud
denly he became twin soul to every one of
them.
If the silence in the office had been pro
found, now it was unspeakable. The un-
happy Tubbs turned toward his desk. His
throat was dry. His fingers were cold.
What was he to do? To write the story
was suicide. To fail to write it! No; he
was going to be Obliged to write it. He
saw that. He also saw the procession of
indignant friends and relatives Of the de-
ceased Stokes. Who was Stokes, anyway.
Could the Stokes Of his wretched story be
confused, possibly, with some other Stokes?
With name like Weevyl? Oh, curse
Weevyl! Curse. all The Weevyls!
He sat down. He put sheet of paper in
his typewriter. He looked at the paper. Il,
was fair and white, unsullied by the words
that be, Thomas Tubbs, was going to write
thereupon. o innocent paper! o menda.
