But
Gabel
had
with
him
a
copy
of
the
Lycurgus
Star
,
and
at
breakfast
,
which
because
of
the
visitors
this
morning
was
unusually
late
,
was
reading
the
news
of
that
city
,
for
in
Lycurgus
was
located
the
wholesale
house
from
which
he
secured
a
portion
of
his
stock
.
"
Well
,
I
see
things
are
going
full
blast
in
your
town
,
Bob
,
"
he
observed
.
"
The
Star
here
says
the
Griffiths
Company
have
got
an
order
for
120,000
collars
from
the
Buffalo
trade
alone
.
They
must
be
just
coining
money
over
there
.
"
"
There
's
always
plenty
to
do
in
my
department
,
I
know
that
,
"
replied
Roberta
,
briskly
.
"
We
never
seem
to
have
any
the
less
to
do
whether
business
is
good
or
bad
.
I
guess
it
must
be
good
all
the
time
.
"
"
Pretty
soft
for
those
people
.
They
do
n't
have
to
worry
about
anything
.
Some
one
was
telling
me
they
're
going
to
build
a
new
factory
in
Ilion
to
manufacture
shirts
alone
.
Heard
anything
about
that
down
there
?
"
"
Why
,
no
,
I
have
n't
.
Maybe
it
's
some
other
company
.
"
"
By
the
way
,
what
's
the
name
of
that
young
man
you
said
was
the
head
of
your
department
?
Was
n't
he
a
Griffiths
,
too
?
"
he
asked
briskly
,
turning
to
the
editorial
page
,
which
also
carried
news
of
local
Lycurgus
society
.
"
Yes
,
his
name
is
Griffiths
--
Clyde
Griffiths
.
Why
?
"
"
I
think
I
saw
his
name
in
here
a
minute
ago
.
I
just
wanted
to
see
if
it
ai
n't
the
same
fellow
.
Sure
,
here
you
are
.
Ai
n't
this
the
one
?
"
He
passed
the
paper
to
Roberta
with
his
finger
on
an
item
which
read
:
"
Miss
Vanda
Steele
,
of
Gloversville
,
was
hostess
at
an
informal
dance
held
at
her
home
in
that
city
Friday
night
,
at
which
were
present
several
prominent
members
of
Lycurgus
society
,
among
them
the
Misses
Sondra
Finchiey
,
Bertine
Cranston
,
Jill
and
Gertrude
Trumbull
and
Perley
Haynes
,
and
Messrs.
Clyde
Griffiths
,
Frank
Harriet
,
Tracy
Trumbull
,
Grant
Cranston
and
Scott
Nicholson
.
The
party
,
as
is
usual
whenever
the
younger
group
assembles
,
did
not
break
up
until
late
,
the
Lycurgus
members
motoring
back
just
before
dawn
.
It
is
already
rumored
that
most
of
this
group
will
gather
at
the
Ellerslies
'
,
in
Schenectady
,
New
Year
's
Eve
for
another
event
of
this
same
gay
nature
.
