There was one lovely sketch in

And he pictured the two of them

her father had held, of course; the
supposttion that it was only those
born to wealth and power-the
classes-who oppressed the masses.
But now she wondered if certain
members Of the lower strata might
not be tyrannical enough, given
opportunity.
Perhaps 1t was not a matter or
class and mass but of individuals.
In a dim way she always had
hoped for something rather fine
from Marty. But this was the end
of that hope.
That she didn't love him and
didn't wish him to love her mat
tered not at all; the hope had moth

hurt by the sure knowledge that
whatever bigness she had expected
of him was not there. Only the

he broke off, pressed her little
hands against his face-kissed

He Lowell her.
For five nights he had been
thinking this. Through hot, rest

dewy, fIower-blue eyes haunted
him. Hold it. Kiss it.

And in another moment: "Give

plugged too hard to give up now
when I'm just in sight of the

She remembered the morning she

what she had seen there. Marty

Perhaps his ambition had led
him to looking higher for a wife

was not, but they were alike. Both
snobs. Apparently it was made up

Emily had visitor at the shop
next day.
She had been thinking about
Marty, wondering a great deal,
trying to understand the processes
which would turn one so es-
sentially proletarian as the Nolan
into a Snob.
For Marty was that now, she
decided. AS much snob as King
don Coles. Like him, Marty would
make his affections fit his in
terests.
Coles couldn't marry q middle
class girl no matter how much he
might love her. And Marty would
turn from the girl he had thought
himself in love with all his life
because disgrace threatened her.
