leave my new address with you,
jim, in case any mail comes
here for me-"
It was a lame excuse but bet
ter than none. OF course, there
wouldn't be any mail for her,
friends had this address, but
she knew that, for none of her
Hank would ask where she had
gone and Jim would tell him.
The garrulous Jim breezed on.
Its too bad you're missin' see
in the doctor. He jest lef' yes
terday. Went for a trip with his
mother and Miz Adams"
Enid stopped writing. Hank
had gone with his mother and
Clare Adams. The beautiful, ar
rogant, redheaded Clare, the girl
he had said his mother wanted
him to marry.
She tore the scrap of paper
on which she had been writing
TO bits. How silly she had been,
thinking that he might want to
see her again-might even 60 to
the bother of looking her up.
Whats the matter, Miz Shar-
on? That your new address you
don tore up?
1T doesn't matter, Jim. i
won't bother you with it I'd for
gotten, the post office will for
ward my mail"
She gave Jim a generous tip
and asked him to call a taxi for
her. Then she turned mechani-
cally and went out front to wait
for its arrival.
The nerve-wracking clickety-
clack of so typewriters pounded
on Ends aching head like so
many little steel maliets driving
into her brain.
She stopped her own machine
for moment and pressed one
hand against her forehead. Her
skin felt dry and hot. She hated
to take another aspirin, she'd
taken SO many of them during
the last few weeks. For her head
ached almost continually. And
she felt tired, exhausted.
Shed thought at first that it
was the reaction from the week
long vigil in the hospital with
her father. But it hadn't worn
off, and she'd been back at work
month now.
Maybe she was going to be
sick. Maybe she'd better see a
doctor. At that last thought her
lips curled in bitter little
smile.
See doctor! Yes, if it was the
right doctor, that might cure her
trouble, she told herself with
ironic honesty. But the jibe did
not stop the wave of acute long
ing that swept over her at the
thought of Hank Holiday.
And after a moment she rails
ed her head and stared unsee-
ingly at the half-typed letter be-
fore her. Why not go to see him?
She really was unwell She'd
have a perfectly legitimate ex-
cuse for going to his office.

BACK TO WORK
CHAPTER XIV

CHAPTER XIV
She could pretend to herself
and nearly succeed in believing
that she was doing matter-of-
factly an errand that had to be
done. Her months rent on the
Arlington apartment was up,
and she had to hand over the
key.
But her heart wasn't fooled by
this elaborate self-justification.
II was singing because she was
going to see Hank Holiday
again very shortly-and maybe
q miracle would happen. Maybe,
somehow, fate at last smiling
on her, would make 1t possible
for her to 60 on seeing Hank
although her truant month was
over.
Upon arrival at her destina-
ton, Enid told the taxi driver
that he needn't wait. 1t would
take some time to pack. She
could call another cab when she
was ready to leave-or maybe
Hank would drive her home.
She went into the apartment
that had been her home for
three happy weeks, and packed
her clothes and looked around
to see that everything in the
apartment was just as 1t had
been when she had rented it..
Then she set her bags out in the
hall, locked the door, and went
down the corridor to Hank Hol-
liday's apartment.
She pressed his doorbell and
waited, her blood pounding dir
lilly in her head. But the door
didn't open, and Hank didn't
smile at her from the thresh-
old. There was no sound at all
from within his apartment.
Enid pressed the bell again
with some urgency. The posi-
bility of his not being at home
simply hadn't occurred to her.
In silence she heard footsteps
shuffling up the back stairs
from the basement, and the next
moment Jim, the janitor appear
ed in the rear of the corridor.
He grinned as he recognized
Enid. "Oh, it's you, Miz Sharon.
The doctors not here"
"Oh-"Enid's voice was limp.
1t meant that she wasn't going
to see Hank, at least not tonight,
and for a moment she couldn't
think beyond the disappoint-
ment of that.
Jim came up to her and she
handed him the key mechanical
ly. I'm moving" she explained.
"Heres-the apartment key.
Will you give it to the doctor?"
"He don been askin' me
where you bin this las week."
Jim volunteered cheerfully.
MY father and mother met
with an accident" she said alb
sentmindedly. I've been with
them"
Hank had been asking about
her. So he had missed her. She
couldn't just walk out this way
without seeing him, without let
ting him know where she was.
wait minute" she said
briskly reaching a decision. She
delved in her purse, found a
memorandum book, tore out

but she did know that many of
the surgeons and specialists on
Broad street, the towns medical
center, were in" all afternoon.
So there was a chance, If she
hurried, that she might see
Hank before he left his office
for the day.
And luck was almost with her.
She had reached the corner OPP
posite the long stucco building
where the Holidays, senior and
junior, had their offices, when
she was delayed momentarily
by traffic light. AS she waited
for the signal TO change she saw
two men come out Of the en-
trance of the building across the
street and hurry 10 an automo-
bile waiting at the curb.
Almost instantly Enid recog-
nized the younger of the two
men as Hank. She looked eager
ly at the automobile as it came
across the intersection toward
her, but Hank was driving and
with his eyes intent on traffic,
heavy at that hour, did not see
the girl smiling at him from the
curb.
And yet, oddly enough, Enid
wasn't altogether disappointed.
Just seeing him for that brief
moment had done something to
her. She felt warm and alive
again, and made energetic plans
as she retraced her steps to the
main street and waited for
northbound bus.
Shed get off a half hour early
the next evening and then she'd
catch Hank before he left his
office. Shed been awfully silly,
she decided, cutting herself off
from him the way she had when
they lived in the same town, and
seeing him was such a simple
matter. And probably she had
grossly exaggerated the import
ance of the trip he had taken
with his mother and the beaute-
Gus Miss Adams.
1t was an almost happy girl
who boarded the bus when it
came. 1t takes such little things
to alter an outlook, a future.
Little things like idly reading a
newspaper over a mans shout
der while the bus sWayed and
lurched on its way.
Nom and Pop were already
seated at the table eating when
she arrived. Enid forced herself
to smile.
DO you mind, Nom, if / don't
eat now? I'm SO hot and tired
She lay across the cool-sheet-
ed bed and tried to stop her ner-
vous trembling. II had been a
shock seeing Clare Adams pic
ture staring at her from that
newspaper in the mans hands.
A large picture filling seven
columns across the top of the So
ciety page and losing in black
and white none of the beauty of
those chiseled features, the ar
rogant poise of the lovely head.
TO Wed Doctor" the outline
below it had read.
Enid hadn't seen any more,
turning her eyes blindly away,
not wanting to see that hateful
triumphant face, not wanting to
know the details of the coming
wedding.
She tried TO bolster herself
with pride. She was glad now
that she had missed seeing Hank
at his office. At least she had
been spared the humiliation of
having thrown herself at him.

Minneapolis Daily's
Article on Negro Is
Weeks Sensation
(See Editorial, Page p

The Northwest finally got the
facts as to how the Negro feels
about the war in a long article by
Richard Wilson, MINNEAPOLIS
TRIBUNE and STAR-JOURNAL,
Washington bureau head, in last
Sundays paper.
Pulling no punches and giving
his views of the situation as he had
discovered it, the daily correspond
ent said that there was widespread
dissatisfaction among the nations
Negro population because of segre-
cation, discrimination in both civil
ian war activity and in the mill
tary.
The article pointed out the bar
ring of Negroes from war industry
in all parts of the country. While
it did not mention the Twin Cities,
what was said could be applied to
large number OF plants here.
Much comment was heard among
whites in Minneapolis and St. Paul,
many of whom were unaware of
the situation as it affects the Ne
gro population. Negro readers
were, of course, aware of the con-
ditions but were grateful that a
large daily with the influence of
the STAR-JOURNAL would print
such factual article.
Sundays article by Wilson was
the months journalistic sensation.
Such articles help the war effort
immeasurably, was the consensus
of Twin City opinion.
Persons who have not read the
article should obtain copy of last
Sundays paper.
