And now she had talked John
into letting her buy the big doll
that had been In Harwell's window
since the holiday season opened
John had tried to tell her that the
small gifts they had already pur-
chased would be enough for Betty,
out finally he had given In to her
pleading. She agreed with him that
twenty dollars was a big sum to spend
for doll, but Betty was Betty and
deserved 1t.

her shabby, mended gloves, and her
face began to burn as she thought Of
the little hat she was wearing She
tried to shake of the feeling that was

her mission, but somehow everything
seemed different now In the light Of
the strange unrest that was filing
