Now the winged COW went charg-
ing gaily over the roof of the En-
pire State building on the way to
the moon; the speckled pig roller
skated down the avenue, and did
an Irish jig when the light turned

hoop.
Work was greater than love.
Oh, yes, it was! The poets all

her out. Then she wrote more

At a quarter after IL she looked

his. Or-maybe he wouldn't care.

Pride kept her tongue silent.
She couldn't tell Ruth and Peter
that Garry had forgotten her.
Ruth was plunging on. There's
a party, Barbara, in Garry's hon.
or. It's good play, isn't it? His
producer is having party but he's
coming to ours for a little while:
Can you come up to my house
right away, or shall I send the
car for you?"
She could not go. Tomorrow or
next week Garry would not recall
that his memory had failed him.
Tonight he would He might even
wonder what she was doing at the
party. Plainly, he did not want
her around.
