for the constant Utilization of events,
slipped her gaze from him to Holly in
barely veiled questioning of how far
their feeling for each other had borne
them. Cynthia, as always, reaching
for whatever she wanted and calling
her ambition solicitude for his welfare,
flashed on Holly fleeting glance of

trays of multicolored glasses, people
showing and shifting from one corner

but their stiffness was, Kim realized,
the silence of watchfulness. All of

The windows, he thought, were mir

openings into his own. Who of them
would understand, he wondered, his
weariness of places like this, of people

peasant cloth than most gamblers try

Louis-Baer contest, there were various
other celebrated citizens. Some of
them had such pretty titles as presi-

This advice was not entirely based
upon the fact that it was Mikes bank
