pleaded.
Anne looked at him in her direct

with him in so public a place as the
Rialto, or anywhere else, for that mat
ter. She shook her head, trying to be
kind.

sped away.
Over her shoulder she could see him
drop his head; see also that Miss
Waterman, following close behind, saw
him also.
When Anne entered the stock room
after lunch she was 10 minutes late
and breathless There had been an
errand to do for her mother and she
had lost time on the way.
The instant she saw Miss WATERWAYS
face she knew that something had hap

pleaded.
But Miss Waterman kept the sheets
back. It came to Anne like a flash that
the figures had been tempered with.
Could Miss Waterman have done it.?
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1929-05-09

But who else was there who would?
She remembered that "nibbling" look in
Bunny's eyes which she had caught
that morning, and shivered.
"You can go right straight to Mr..
Davenport" said Miss Waterman.
Mr.. Davenport was the big boss,
who had mercy for no one who was
careless. Anne felt that it was all up
with her. And she had been so proud
of her job, so happy to think that she
could help out at home with that $40 a
week. Her lips quivered. She looked
into the, bright blackness of Miss
Waterman's eyes and sighed-a beaten,
miserable little sigh. Then she turned
and went out of the room.
It was not far to Mr.. Deavenport's
room, and she had to pass through the
big office to get there. Joe Hutton
sprang to open the door for her
Good luck!" he whispered. He
didn't know what was coming. Anne
smiled weakly and went in.
She marched straight up to the desk

THE EVENING STORY

Miss Waterman, tersely, "Ill-I'll see
that you're discharged"
Anne lifted her head. Her gray, still
eyes met the bright black ones. She
smiled.
"Oh, I shan't make a mistake" she
replied. You know, that's the one
thing I'm really sure of-the multiple
cation table"
Miss Waterman jerked But she went
away silent. AS her solid, blocky fig
ure receded Anne looked after her con-
tritely.
"oh, what made me say thatP" she
sighed to herself For Miss Waterman
was stupid at figures and only held her
job by sheer force of will power and
experience. Anne had pricked her with
a particularly sharp little pin, and fear
of the effect she might produce troubled
her.
The other person in the stockroom
had, in her usual way, kept out Of all
this. Mrs. Keene was middle-aged with
a son in college, fine youngster,
year or so older than Anne. Indeed,
Anne thought him one of the incest, If
not quite the incest. young fellow that
she had ever met. And his mother was
good to her. Mrs. Keene was one of
go about lighting the way for the ig-
norant and inexperienced. Anne looked
at her wistfully, and as soon as Miss
Waterman was out of the room for an
instant she ran across to where Mrs.
Keene was at work.
I've done something to offend Bun
Miss Waterman" Anne whispered. IT
can't think what it is. wish I could.
Haven't you an idea?"
Mrs. Keene turned and looked into
Anne's honest, questioning eyes. She
looked deep. But still she did not
speak.
do you suppose she isn't having good
luck with her love affair with Roland
Wight?" asked Anne. Still, I don't
see what I've got to do with it if she
isn't"
Mrs. Keene smiled and tucked back
a loose strand of Anne'S hair.
You haven't anything to do with 1t,
I can see that" she replied.
Then she returned abruptly to her
work as Miss Waterman came trotting
in.
Anne puzzled about the matter till
business drove it out of her head. 1t
was business first every time with
Anne.
At noon as she came out of the door
Roland Wight stepped up to her.
Come on, Anne, have lunch with me

Anne Gets a Jolt.

NNE SCOTT was working at her
n yellow sheets" that morning
IA when she happened to glance
4 u up and find the eyes of Miss
Waterman, her superior in the
stockroom, fixed upon her. Miss Wa
terrnan had bright black eyes, and at
that instant they held something that
was so much more noticeable than
brightness or blackness that Anne was
startled. The thought, Bunny hates
me-" Bunny was the name that Miss
Waterman went by in the big factory;
there was no reason for 1t other than
that Lucia Hooper had once given
Anne: She nibbleS-when you aren't
looking" It came to Anne that she
had caught Miss Waterman nibbling
now-nibbling Anne herself.
Anne's glance escaped instantly and
returned to her work. That morning
the superintendent had sent in COM
mand for 200 dozen to fill the big or
der. The work was going on with
rush, and Anne was checking up as
fast as she could with care. A single
mistake might entail lots of trouble,
even the loss of her job. And she
wanted so much to keep her job. The
money she earned was more necessary
now than ever since her mother had
had that illness.
But that look of Bunny's-that nib
bling look! "She hates me-" thought
Anne again. But why?"
At that instant Roland Wight came
into the room. Anne kept her eyes
down and pretended not to see him.
Yet somehow she knew that he was
there, knew, too that he was looking at
her, knew that Miss Waterman was
looking at him with that curious
bright, blackness of her eyes. She
could see just how he paused, irreso-
Lutte, then turned toward Miss Water
man. She could hear them talking in
low tones.
Mine and II are 26," Anne said to
her pencil and bent her head lower.
But she could not help hearing the
tones of the two in the room behind
her. All the racket of the factory
couldn't drown them.
They're quarreling," she thought.
Eight and 19 are"
Miss Waterman was angry Roland
gently pacific. But at last he went out
rather suddenly. Anne could hear Miss
Waterman come close behind her,
breathing hard. She felt uncomfort-
able, as If she were about to be struck,
but she kept on figuring.
IF you make single mistake" said

only say, though with emphasis: "oh,
yes, SIR"
Mr.. Davenport came as near to
smiling as he ever did.
"AIl right, then. You go to Joe Hut
ton and tell him I sent you. And tell
him also to put you on the pay roll for
twenty per-"
He turned to his desk, apparently not
needing Anne's stammered thanks. But
Miss Marsh smiled congratulations.
