 "You were greati" Jameson said suddenly. T mean - what l meant was that everybody liked what you said. And" he added hon. etStly, that's saying lot, because we weren't very sure we would"
 She met his eyes. Why would you come to Q conclusion like that?"
 Jameson hesitated. "T-I don't know. I guess 1t would be that way with any new owner" He was refusing to let Barnes in for anything, and Helena admired him for 1t. She turned to the stairs which led to the rnezzanine ofiiceS. "ITi be seeing you later on."
 "Yes, Mrs. Henderson ." He seemed about to say something more, thought better of 1t - then finally blurted ou: T I was terribly sorry to hear about MT. Henderson. T didn't know him very well, but"
 Thank you, MT. Jameson. I appreciate what you say"
 But, Helena told herself aS she climbed the stairway to the mezza- nine, she didn't really appreciate what Harvey Jameson had said. The truth was that his condolences er1- barrassed her. And why2 Resolutely she faced this question. "HtS because --becauSe l feel 50 little for poor Peter no, that's not true. I do feel c great deal for him. But not enough. Not what 6 widow should" A widowl An odd word - c word which did not, really, belong to her at oil. Looking back now ct those hectic days at Crest Mountain Lodge, she realized that what had happened to her could never have happened had she met Peter Hcrls derson in town. It had been a-yeS, q summertime infatuation. And sandra Leigh,s enthusiasm had helped to carry her away. f
 Too late now to ponder over this. With the heartlessnesS of reality, c row of ofiicc doors cons fr0nted her. AS she stood there, looking ct them, she was startled by c footfall on the stairway. She turned to see Roger Barnes.

 With the help of the janitor, Barnes lost no time in moving his papers and files into the spacious oface which had been Peter Hen- derson'S on those rare occasions when he spent some time ct the store. Thus Helena soon found herself seated ct the desk which had been BarneB'. With" she told herself, nothing to do," But she quickly decided to make tour of the departments of the store, dipping out before Barneh or some other ofIicer had Q chance to show her around. She waa about to leave the ofilce when Barnes' secretary appeared.
 Mrs. Frank Frazier and her daughter would like to sec you,
 HeIenaB heart sank. "All . right, Miss Marks"
 Mrs. Frank Frazier was even more regal than her daughter Helena was reminded of Q little verse she had once read--about a woman who seemed Berenely certain that in heaven there would be black cherubs to make her bed. But the queenliness of both mother and daughter was somewhat T1arred at this moment by anger. Helena saw that graciousness would be out oi place now.

 Helena started. "Why-" she paused, embarrassment I'm afraid that in Q way there's been Q f11is- take, You should have received 6 letter notifying you. I believe the letters are going out today. There should have been no notice to the employees until"
 "PIease don't quibblc. With the present management one can ex- pect good many mistakes, aS you call them. But B 1t, or B 1t not, true that you have SuS- pended our charge accounts7"
 "ThatS quite true" said Helena evenly. If you will recall the amount now owing Us, and the length of time it's been overdue, I'm sure you will understand"
 "Understandp famed Mrs. Fra- zier. We understand nothing ex- cept that you are Q common little upstart. And that you will regret the day you came here - through what was nothing more than an unfortunate accident" She turned to her daughter. Come, LeahI"
 The door slammed hard enough to shake the pictures on the wall, and Helena dropped back into her chair, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. She was still undecided when the telephone rang ct her el- bow.
 "This b John Lassiter," the voice said. How are you this morning?"
 "Right now" Helena admitted, T don't feel go well"

 "Oh, not right now," LasSister hurried on. "1ts 6 whole month from now, and by that time you well, you ought to be going places again.
