The New Plan
Chapter 35

/ have since thought that I en-
joyed that evening 1 spent with
Ellen at her sisters more than any
of the evenings since I had come to
the city.
: The sister, who was also our
laundress, lived in a couple of rooms,
five flights up, in an East Side fiat
house of the cheapest sort. Her
husband was a sailor. She support
ed her three children by washing.
She had a certain amount of intelli-
| gence and a certain sense of humor
that did not desert her. even though
she was sick in bed.
she expects the baby in two
weeks" Ellen told me. AS we walk
ed along the streets we ceased to be
mistress and maid and became SIM
ply two women, united in one effort
to help another woman in distress.
Ellen's sister was n long gaunt
figure lying in the bed. Her gray
hair-gray though she was scarcely
thirty-was combed back and ended
in a strinSy pigtail that lay on the
pillow by her. She had deep set.
hard. gray eyes, cheeks lined with
wrinkles. and a mouth that closed in
a grim line, or softened into a hui
morous smile.
II don't want charity" she said
rudely as we came in.
Il don't want to give charity" ]
answered suddenly uncomfortable
I've been rather i'll. too, and /
thought some of the nice things they
made for me TO eat might tempt
you too"
Her face softened a little.
The children mean well, but they
amt much on cooking" she an
swered.
And we began with that. while
Ellen heated some delicacies we had
brought from my place.
I'm not in want" the woman
said. Il go to the hospital in a
week and I'm taken care of there.
The children are safe in the day,
and Ellen can sleep here nights when
she's through with your work. But
the baby has no clothes. / never
had time"
PLEASE let me make some,

"It's sewing" she looked doubt
fully at my hands.
II can sew" l answered. IF
don't get them done in time I'll buy
them, but it would be nice to make
them myself"
Somehow that evening I got back
to earth again. I felt as though my
feet were touching solid ground.
had been living up in the air before,
In a world of froth and ~frivolity
where nothing was solid and where
the non-essentials of life were the
only things considered worth while.
After we were home again l put
on a negligee and sat down by the
fire to think out this new problem.
One thing was evident. Winthrop
and I had radically different tastes
He was naturally frightfully extrav-
| agant-possibly the result of a life
in which he had not been allowed
to handle money. He had no sense
of the value of money at all.
i was naturally economical. That
is, / knew what I should have fol
the money spent and though 1 was
compelled to spend much more fol
things than we could afford, OIL
much more than they were intrinsic
ally worth, at the same time l did
not actually throw money away as
he did.
I loved the quiet. simple, plain
life. That was perhaps because
had been given only the elaborate,
fussy, over-heated sort of existence.
Win. as a reaction against the very
placid life OF his home, was infat-
uated with this mad, hurried rush of

Mayonnaise OF Chicken
One cold boiled chicken, ~ cups
