the tiredness had fled from her
face.

mustache. He suddenly remem.
bered his position, the other
girls, the staring maids.

quietly, Il meet you in front of
the Forty-Second Street entrance

II was as If she had read his
mind. Their eyes met. In that
moment a wealth of understand
ing cleaned between them. Her
eyes were smiling.
He nodded, relieved. "That
will be great"
Helen stood before the Scared
mirror over the washbasin and
stared at her reflection with un-
seeing eyes. It was late and
only few girls we're lettering
about. Fortunately no one had
noticed her talking with the
boss.
Was it possible that he had
actually talked to her? That the
great Walter Riley had actually
asked her, Helen Schiller, an
Anastasia manicurist, to go out
with him and to teach him to
dance? Helen Shivered with
ecstasy. It was like a dream.
Helen had had romantic dreams
about him just as all the other
girls had. But this was no
dream. She was alive. She was
going to meet him in flesh and
blood. She pressed her fingers
to her hot cheeks.
Then slowly her exhilaration
died. Suppose she wouldn't
know what to say to him? AS
she slowly washed and dressed,
the long evening ahead of her
rose like a Specter, an ordeal as
terrible as trip to the dentist
when you know a molar has to
be extracted.
What would she say to him?
She could chatter brightly
enough with the boys she knew.
There even crept rather awk-
wardly into her conversation
the yelled insinuationS about
sex, only misunderstood, that
were fast becoming accepted
parlor talk. She had seen the
latest plays; had read IF Win
ter Comes" and 1.-THE Sheik,"
and most Of the best sellers
knew in fact more about books
than any of the girls she
worked with.

breast. No, there she was. She
looked pale in the hard, white,
night light that the colored
cleaning staff switched on after
the soft lights were out. She
was putting clippers and scis-
sors and files listlessly into her
drawer. He came in quietly.
The whine of the vacuum in the
reception room drowned his
footsteps. He was beside her,
looking down at her, before she
realized his presence. He saw
that her face was drawn and
white. This morning as she
danced she had seemed so young
and fresh.
"Oh" she exclaimed, startled.
The colored maids, cleaning
the cubicles, watched them
curiously.
"I-I saw you dance this
morning" he began uncertainty.
She dimpled. Some of the
color flowed back into her face,
but she was not embarrassed.

He was amazed. He had eX-

he was reproving her and she

of anger and yet he was in
trigued by her lack of self-con-
seriousness.
On his lips was the reproof
he had planned. But there was
something so childlike, so
friendly, in her wide, gray eyes
that he couldn't say it. The
words froze on his lips. He let
