The same holds true OF char
acters. Seldom does an author

there IL the matter Of coincidence.
The long arm OF coincidence
reaches out and moves the pawns

once there was a little girl
~ whose father disgraced the
family name. After that she had
a lot of heartaches and humilia-
tons that no little girl should
have. It's quite true that she be-
came overly sensitive and imaS-
ined that people were looking
down" on her when they were
not even thinking about her at
all. Anyway, the disgrace married
her childhood and overshadoWed
her girlhood.
Then she grew up and married.
Her marriage was not very sue
cessful; but her beautiful children
made up for that disappointment.
She had been married for eight
years-which the wiseacres saw is
the most critical period in mar
ried life. She was still young, at.
tractive, and hungry for some OF
the youthful pleasures that most
young women want. And by some
strange twist of fate she found
herself very much in demand hy
the good-time crowd in her town.
