This
is
Clyde
Griffiths
,
I
was
telling
you
about
,
Fred
,
"
she
began
briskly
.
"
Does
n't
he
look
a
lot
like
Gilbert
?
"
"
Why
,
you
do
at
that
,
"
exclaimed
this
amiable
person
,
who
seemed
to
be
slightly
troubled
with
weak
eyes
since
he
bent
close
.
"
I
hear
you
're
a
cousin
of
Gil
's
.
I
know
him
well
.
We
went
through
Princeton
together
.
I
used
to
be
over
here
before
I
joined
the
General
Electric
over
at
Schenectady
.
But
I
'm
around
a
good
bit
yet
.
You
're
connected
with
the
factory
,
I
suppose
.
"
"
Yes
,
I
am
,
"
said
Clyde
,
who
,
before
a
youth
of
obviously
so
much
more
training
and
schooling
than
he
possessed
,
felt
not
a
little
reduced
.
He
began
to
fear
that
this
individual
would
try
to
talk
to
him
about
things
which
he
could
not
understand
,
things
concerning
which
,
having
had
no
consecutive
training
of
any
kind
,
he
had
never
been
technically
informed
.
"
In
charge
of
some
department
,
I
suppose
?
"
"
Yes
,
I
am
,
"
said
Clyde
,
cautiously
and
nervously
.
"
You
know
,
"
went
on
Mr.
Sells
,
briskly
and
interestingly
,
being
of
a
commercial
as
well
as
technical
turn
,
"
I
've
always
wondered
just
what
,
outside
of
money
,
there
is
to
the
collar
business
.
Gil
and
I
used
to
argue
about
that
when
we
were
down
at
college
.
He
used
to
try
to
tell
me
that
there
was
some
social
importance
to
making
and
distributing
collars
,
giving
polish
and
manner
to
people
who
would
n't
otherwise
have
them
,
if
it
were
n't
for
cheap
collars
.
I
think
he
musta
read
that
in
a
book
somewhere
.
I
always
laughed
at
him
.
"
Clyde
was
about
to
attempt
an
answer
,
although
already
beyond
his
depth
in
regard
to
this
.
"
Social
importance
.
"
Just
what
did
he
mean
by
that
--
some
deep
,
scientific
information
that
he
had
acquired
at
college
.
He
was
saved
a
non-committal
or
totally
uninformed
answer
by
Sondra
who
,
without
thought
or
knowledge
of
the
difficulty
which
was
then
and
there
before
him
,
exclaimed
:
"
Oh
,
no
arguments
,
Freddie
.
That
's
not
interesting
.
Besides
I
want
him
to
meet
my
brother
and
Bertine
.
You
remember
Miss
Cranston
.
She
was
with
me
at
your
uncle
's
last
spring
.
"
Clyde
turned
,
while
Fred
made
the
best
of
the
rebuff
by
merely
looking
at
Sondra
,
whom
he
admired
so
very
much
.
"
Yes
,
of
course
,
"
Clyde
began
,
for
he
had
been
studying
these
two
along
with
others
.
To
him
,
apart
from
Sondra
,
Bertine
seemed
exceedingly
attractive
,
though
quite
beyond
his
understanding
also
.
Being
involved
,
insincere
and
sly
,
she
merely
evoked
in
him
a
troubled
sense
of
ineffectiveness
,
and
hence
uncertainty
,
in
so
far
as
her
particular
world
was
concerned
--
no
more
.
