His kind don't, not to your kind 1t may be a

The heat in the room seemed to rise sti-

not to look at Molly; the girls dark eyes we're
filled with tears again. You're making your
self as cheap as those models he runs around
WITH" Miss Price said. "You come down to
it, he don't even let himself be seen with you
like he does with them. You're not dashing
enough, guess. Well, don't that tell you
something? He picks you up at his fathers
store and he's just willing to ride you around

'You know - everyone knows - about that

Miss Price saw that about all Molly had done,
since she'd been back from the store, was to
take bath. Haven't you eaten?" Miss Price
asked.
Molly Cade shook her head; she couldn't
admit she hadn't gone out for something be-
cause Guy Farr might telephone.

or rather, went on where she had left off:
Molly, you're very foolish girl don't
know why bother, only -" Her voice hung.
Maybe if I'd ever married might of had

Molly said thinly, Il know you mean well,
Miss Price. Only you don't understand"

Guy and I've just ride around nights
in his car, maybe we stop at some beautiful
cool place for dinner =" Molly stopped.
Listening, praying for the phone to ring.
OH, MOLLY! Can you honestly tell me your
Harry doesn't object?"
Hes not my Harry, Miss Price"
He could be. He should be. You had good
times with him before Guy Farr saw you
there in the store, didn't you?"
Yes, only"

N counter since the days when real
ladies wore Isle, hated young Mrs.
Guy Farr. 1t made no difference to her that
Guys father owned the store. ''What'd she
ever do to you?" one of the girls at the glove
counter once asked. "She couldn't do any
thing to me-" Miss Price answered tightly.
Her old face set in hard, bitter lines, I'm
not of her class. I'm just clerk"
From the stockings you could see through
the great revolving doors to the street where
sometimes the Farr town car would be wait
ing. If young Mrs. Farr came along, especially
if Guy was with her. everyone craned to see
Not Miss Price. 1t seemed she simply couldn't
bear to look at either of them.
1t wasn't as if young Mrs. Farr was high
hat. OF course her beautiful, right clothes
came from the exclusive houses, but when she
bought anything in the store she was always
so friendly. When she'd been first married,
she bought all her stockings from Miss Price
Grimly the older woman would hunt out
sizes and shades. They could all see Mrs. Farr
being as nice as anything, but back of Miss
Prices frigid politeness there might have been
a sign: You keep your place and I'll keep
mine"
Class" the glove clerk had hooted. There
isn't any such animal any more!"
Before he'd married and settled down,
young Guy had ranged far and wide. The
clerks and even the floorwalkers used to pass
around the gossip columns. Did you see
ths?" they'd ask Which playboy," some
one wrote once, raids his pappy's emporium
and comes out with fresh model every
night?" Model" was technically correct too,
in those days - the wide-eyed lovelies who
paraded poised bodies in negligees, bathing
suits and wholesale dScOllets up on the fourth
floor had no reason to complain about Guy
Fairs class consciousness, or that he was a
hard boss either. Even now some of them
tried come -hither, unable to believe that
one so rich and young and also man couldn't
be detected from what they called with
grin, "a big true love" But unfortunately for
them now, Guys concentration was merely
on the fabrics that partly surrounded them.
WHEN it comes to marrying" Miss Price
had said two years ago, 1T won't be any
model" Along with the gossip columns,
young Farr made the society ones, so every

she could still see Molly Cade as she had cried
that day. Il did my best for her" Miss Price
would sometimes remind herself, Il gave her
the best advice knew"
Girls were foolish; it seemed you couldn't
spare them anything no matter how you tried.
Miss Price had had to send Molly home early
that day, because there she was trying to
keep her back to the customers as she stacked
boxes of ut-sizes with the tears running
down her thin, white face. IF it wasn't for
me-" Miss Price had told Molly, everyone
in the store would know"
But no matter how much her feet were
hurting, Miss Price had gone out to Molly
Cade's rooming house that night after clos
ing. Molly was whittier than ever. Her tiny
room was breathless in the August heat The
brick wall opposite the sole window threw
back hot wave like an open oven door;
