With a sharpening fear at «her
breast, Whitey quickly completed
the routine of having Jenkins put
on the payroll. Then she called

been ill for a few days, but now
came the disturbing news that an "

his sincere sympathies on Harring- .

Whitey cut in quietly. “V. 8.. I

house. "For two weeks I've waited
for that call, Darling," she was say-

everything I was going to pack. I

A colored attendant approached

Van fait the. iron bands that

he rose and walked to the telephone
booth. "Yea?” he said, in a voice

“Van," Linda sobbed, "come
home." ।
* And big, atrong Van collapsed.
“D—darting," he blubbered, "11 be
right there." He hung up, the

From the moment he left the
telephone booth to the instant he.
ruahed madly Into Unda’a room,
Van’s actions were one continuous
movement.
"Unda!" ... —i
