At
the
same
time
in
so
far
as
Clyde
and
his
leaning
toward
her
was
concerned
there
was
that
rule
laid
down
by
Gilbert
.
And
although
,
because
of
it
,
he
had
hitherto
appeared
not
to
notice
or
to
give
any
more
attention
to
one
girl
than
another
,
still
,
once
Roberta
arrived
,
he
was
almost
unconsciously
inclined
to
drift
by
her
table
and
pause
in
her
vicinity
to
see
how
she
was
progressing
.
And
,
as
he
saw
from
the
first
,
she
was
a
quick
and
intelligent
worker
,
soon
mastering
without
much
advice
of
any
kind
all
the
tricks
of
the
work
,
and
thereafter
earning
about
as
much
as
any
of
the
others
--
fifteen
dollars
a
week
.
And
her
manner
was
always
that
of
one
who
enjoyed
it
and
was
happy
to
have
the
privilege
of
working
here
.
And
pleased
to
have
him
pay
any
little
attention
to
her
.
At
the
same
time
he
noted
to
his
surprise
and
especially
since
to
him
she
seemed
so
refined
and
different
,
a
certain
exuberance
and
gayety
that
was
not
only
emotional
,
but
in
a
delicate
poetic
way
,
sensual
.
Also
that
despite
her
difference
and
reserve
she
was
able
to
make
friends
with
and
seemed
to
be
able
to
understand
the
viewpoint
of
most
of
the
foreign
girls
who
were
essentially
so
different
from
her
.
For
,
listening
to
her
discuss
the
work
here
,
first
with
Lena
Schlict
,
Hoda
Petkanas
,
Angelina
Pitti
and
some
others
who
soon
chose
to
speak
to
her
,
he
reached
the
conclusion
that
she
was
not
nearly
so
conventional
or
standoffish
as
most
of
the
other
American
girls
.
And
yet
she
did
not
appear
to
lose
their
respect
either
.
Thus
,
one
noontime
,
coming
back
from
the
office
lunch
downstairs
a
little
earlier
than
usual
,
he
found
her
and
several
of
the
foreign
-
family
girls
,
as
well
as
four
of
the
American
girls
,
surrounding
Polish
Mary
,
one
of
the
gayest
and
roughest
of
the
foreign-family
girls
,
who
was
explaining
in
rather
a
high
key
how
a
certain
"
feller
"
whom
she
had
met
the
night
before
had
given
her
a
beaded
bag
,
and
for
what
purpose
.
"
I
should
go
with
heem
to
be
his
sweetheart
,
"
she
announced
with
a
flourish
,
the
while
she
waved
the
bag
before
the
interested
group
.
"
And
I
say
,
I
tack
heem
an
'
think
on
heem
.
Pretty
nice
bag
,
eh
?
"
she
added
,
holding
it
aloft
and
turning
it
about
.
"
Tell
me
,
"
she
added
with
provoking
and
yet
probably
only
mock
serious
eyes
and
waving
the
bag
toward
Roberta
,
"
what
shall
I
do
with
heem
?
Keep
heem
an
'
go
with
heem
to
be
his
sweetheart
or
give
heem
back
?
I
like
heem
pretty
much
,
that
bag
,
you
bet
.
"
And
although
,
according
to
the
laws
of
her
upbringing
,
as
Clyde
suspected
,
Roberta
should
have
been
shocked
by
all
this
,
she
was
not
,
as
he
noticed
--
far
from
it
.
If
one
might
have
judged
from
her
face
,
she
was
very
much
amused
.
Instantly
she
replied
with
a
gay
smile
:
"
Well
,
it
all
depends
on
how
handsome
he
is
,
Mary
.
If
he
's
very
attractive
,
I
think
I
'd
string
him
along
for
a
while
,
anyhow
,
and
keep
the
bag
as
long
as
I
could
.
"
"
Oh
,
but
he
no
wait
,
"
declared
Mary
archly
,
and
with
plainly
a
keen
sense
of
the
riskiness
of
the
situation
,
the
while
she
winked
at
Clyde
who
had
drawn
near
.
"
I
got
to
give
heem
bag
or
be
sweetheart
to-night
,
and
so
swell
bag
I
never
can
buy
myself
.
"
She
eyed
the
bag
archly
and
roguishly
,
her
own
nose
crinkling
with
the
humor
of
the
situation
.
"
What
I
do
then
?
"
"
Gee
,
this
is
pretty
strong
stuff
for
a
little
country
girl
like
Miss
Alden
.
She
wo
n't
like
this
,
maybe
,
"
thought
Clyde
to
himself
.
However
,
Roberta
,
as
he
now
saw
,
appeared
to
be
equal
to
the
situation
,
for
she
pretended
to
be
troubled
.
"
Gee
,
you
are
in
a
fix
,
"
she
commented
.
"
I
do
n't
know
what
you
'll
do
now
.
"
She
opened
her
eyes
wide
and
pretended
to
be
greatly
concerned
.
However
,
as
Clyde
could
see
,
she
was
merely
acting
,
but
carrying
it
off
very
well
.
