THE STORY SO FAR

oBS were scarce in Washington, that
summer of 1888, and Valerie Gray, who
- had to support an invalid father, was
thankful for hers as Government clerk, even
though the boss's efforts at familiarity some
times made things difficult.
One night she rescued Chivalrous young
man from drowning. They fell in love, and
though Neal also was only poor and de-
pendent-ridden Government worker, they
began making happy plans for marriage, and
even signed the lease on a tiny furnished fiat.
Suddenly between them came - Section 2l3,
that law which prevented both husband and
wife from working for the Government at the
same time.
Unable to marry, because they and their
dependents could not live on the salary of
one, and unwilling to sully their love with
secret affair, the two spent bttersweet eve
nings in their flat, playing at domesticity.
Meanwhile, an old admirer of Valerie's,
Philip Rutledge, began showing her in subtle
ways all the ease his money could offer; and
Meals wealthy boss commandeered him as
escort to his wife and pretty niece Hazel
Perley, who fell sentimentally in love with
Neal 1t was situation that bred misunder-
standings: Valerie and Neal each felt a
burden to the other; at last, with secretly
aching hearts, they bade one another goodbye.
But the apparent scandal of their meetings
in the fiat reached Valerie's boss; he de-
manded an explanation, took her silence for
guilt, and dismissed her with good refer
ence for work. but none for moral character"
So for Valerie, as for so many Others doubly
crippled by the depression and Section 213,
there began a long weary hunt for the job
that never materialised.
Then came chance to act as temporary
social secretary to the wife of Meals boss.
Valerie dared not refuse She found Mrs.
Clifford and Hazel openly angling for Neal.
One evening" when Hazel broke date with
Neal to 90 out with another beau, Captain
Rivadavia from Argentina, she left Valerie
to make explanations and excuses to Neal
When he arrived, the two lovers

so much to say that they did not
know where to begin.

thought that was safe remark.
About the same. And your
mother2 And your sister,"
They're all right. They're fine.
Their appetites are good" He
laughed awkwardly at this; it
meant that if it we're not for them
and their needs, he would not have
had to give up Valerie. This started
him off. How did you come to take
position here? What is your
work."
I'm what is called social sec
retary - very pleasant job with
very pleasant people"
She guessed that the maid would
be listening, and tried to indicate
as much by look and a warning
gesture, as she added: "But l must
be hurrying home to my father"
He understood. II must be going,
too. Please tell Hazel = Miss Per-
ley - that I'm sorry to have missed
her. Good night"
She was not surprised to find him
waiting for her outside the hotel.
He fell into step with her as she set
out for home. Now tell me how
you really happen to be working for
