Heinie's elbow for glimpse of

holding the quarter in his palm,
looking at it as IL it were a fallen

thing.
And when the brown car was
nothing but a blur in the distance,
he hurled the coin violently down
upon the muddy red bricks Of the
road and got into his cab. He
drove back to town like the wind
