The Waterbury Democrat. [volume] (Waterbury, Conn.) 1917-1946, 1934-04-12

Not in years, Rita reflected as
she pushed her way through noon
crowds towards the Gypsy Rem
devious, had she felt so low. IT
was all because of the boss being
bounced.
For ten years Rita had been the
private secretary of Daniel Dig
gins. For ten years she had taken
his dictation and his phone calls
and cared for all the details of his
office.
Mr.. DiggiEs had been an ideal
boss. He was kind and generous
and she'd enjoyed every minute she
never been fresh, either, as she
knew some bosses were.
OF course. she never thought of
that sort of thing in connection
with Mr.. Diggins. He was hardly
maiden's dream. He was a
vidower and past forty and had
gray in his hair. Rita wasn't SO
terribly young herself any more
but. well, she never thought of Mr..
Diggins that way.
Then, just yesterday, he had
been bounced!
1t was through no fault Of his
own. The corporation had been
merged with another one and there
has been a general housekeeping
of executives. Mr.. Diggins had
been one of those who was retired.
Rita sighed as she entered the
rather garish tea room which was
the Gypsy Rendezvous.
She ordered lunch and hurried
through 1t. When she had finished
her tea and only the leaves re-
manned in the bottom of her cup,
Juanita, the fortune teller, came to
her table. Juanita was a dark girl
who wore a smock and a Gypsy
shawl and many strings of very
bright beads. Rita had consulted
her before.
you've RECEIVED A
SURPRISE" SHE SAID
Nov, Juanita," she told her as
the fortune teller sat down and
studied the leaves in her cup, II
want you to give me your very

said, ga blow-a heavy blow
Rita clasped her hands together.
'Pll say have" she cried, but 1t
wasn't a blow, it was a Wallop.
What else do you see?"
The fortune teller frowned.
you're going to receive another
one," she said, another one on the
chin. see it clearly"
"Oh" Rita's heart sank.
"But you've got to take 1t, my
DEAR" Juanita went on. you've
got to take it on the chin like a
little woman. Later on see hap
piness for you and a trip across
water"
"Yeah?" Rita replied cynically,
'T'll be going to Hoboken no doubt.
What worries me is that smack on
the chin"
And it did worry Rita. When
she left the tea room she was on
the verge of tears. She didn't be-
lieve in fortune tellers. OF course
not. But Juanita had forecast
some things for her in the past
which had come true. And hadn't
it been amazing the way she said
that she had already sustained a
blow? What could be the new
blow that was going to befall her?
All afternoon Rita remained de-
pressed. She didn't like the new
boss. He was q headed,
dyspeptic creature, who fumed
and fused and did everything
wrong she thought. And she felt,
too, that he didn't like her, Every
time he spoke to her she expected
him to inform her that she was
fired.
He didn't, however, and finally

him.

said Rita.
After she had hung up the
receiver, however, she was puz-

Diggins had to tell her? Then ii
dawned on her. He was going to
inform her that she was bounced!

bIithely, what is it you have to
tell me, Mr. Diggins?"
Mr.. Diggins seemed embar-
raised. Don't be in such a hurry,

But Mr.. Diggins looked embar-
raised again. Lets put 1t off until

They had dinner with q bottle Of
old wine and Rita, like a person
dancing on q volcano, enjoyed 1t
thoroughly in spite Of the doom
that she felt hanging over her. III
getting fired was always like this
she thought, 81 wouldn't mind be-

The dinner and wine melted Mr..
Diggins' reserve. He talked freely
to Rita's establishment, he started
about his future plans and then,
calling her Rita instead, Of Miss
Rhodes.
II don't mind being retired" he
told her. 1--WE saved my pennies
and IT doesn't matter whether get

After dinner they moved on to
another place where there was an
orchestra. They had liqueurs and
coffee there, and danced every
number. Rita hadn't known. that
Mr.. Diggips danced either let
alone that he was such. a good
dancer. But still he refused to tell

Good Evening.
EPITAPH FOR A YOUTH
90 ~ nAn ~ WU <DwR

He spoke such sweet and lovely things,
Of skies and stars and dream-drenched eyes,
And moonbeams busting off sobbing sea
Whose bosom rose and fell in longing sighs
With words he built great castles in the air.
And in each one lady sweet and fair,
With whom he'd live forever and day
And all his life and fortune share.
But sounds are such empty, idle things
And love to maids lis so much more,
That she sought deeds instead of pretty words
And thought that after all he was bore.
For then in speech alone were all the noble
deeds he'd done
He never stopped to do them-not
single one.
Felix.
