She Called Him

steinfcld was a hard boss to work for. He was always watching his office staff closely, and nothing seemed to go on that he didn't see. But the chief trouble was that he never kept his observations to him self, and he usually managed to let somebody in the office know what he thought of someone else. The force didn't seem to mind this so very much until Betty Forson came there to work. Betty was high tempered and independent, and she never let anybody get away with anything when she was around.
 The office boy decided to stir up trouble by repeating to Betty re- mark he claimed Steinfeld had made about her. Immediately Betty took up arms and walked boldly into steinfeld's office.
 "Mr. Steinfeld, she said, "did you tell Bobby that my face would stop a clock?"
 "No," answered Steinfeld, quickly, what I said was flat it keeps the reople in the office from watching the clock"
