RlVer fnen- too, he did say filing f0ihcl'' n,lcer things than any lejioiv had ever known how to sny to her before, and ho was much more polite than sho had ever believed it posslblo for any one to bo without secmln queer. Rut when eavesdropping nt Mc fcuire a she had heard Peter play the piano, she felt hcrsplf conducted into new world which had nothing nt all to do with glnss factories and vinevnrds. fcven the sartorial splendor of Misa I egKy McGuire paled into insignificance beside the new visions which the music of Peter Nichols had invoked. lie hadn't just lied to her. He was n musician. He could play. She had never heard anybody bring from a plana sounds like these. And he had said ha i?ted llcr t0 sing for him. iicth had suns always just as sho had always breathed but she had never heard any good music except on a talking machino nt the boarding house at Glassboro an old record of aiadanw Mclba s that they plaved sometimes, lint even that song from an opera ( Lay Roheem" they called it), muti lated as it was. had shown hcr that there was something mora wonderful than the popular melodies that tho other people liked. Reth'a taste for good music, like hor taste for nice peo Pie, was Instinctive. And she had found that in her walk of life the one wf about as difficult to find ns tho tuuer. ouo nnu nail ner awakenings and her dlslllusionmcnts, with women as well ns men, but had emerged from her experiences of twq winters in a factory town with hcr chin high nnd her heart pure something of an achievement for one as pretty as Reth. All In all. she had liked Shad "Wells better than any of the men she had met. He was rough, but bIio had dls covered that good manners didn't al ways mcun good hearts or clean minds. It was this discovery that had made her look askance nt Peter Nichols when she had first met him on the road, for he was politer than anybody she had ever met. If her philosophy was to bo consistent this new superintendent would need watching. Rut his music disarmed her and captured her imagln ation. And then came the incident of tho jealous Shad and tho extraordinary outcome of Mr. Nichols' championship of her rights. She hod witnessed that fiht from the shelter of the bushes. It had bcen dreadful but glorious. Pcter'e chivalry appealed to her also his strength. From that moment ho was superman. Then had followed the long, wonder ful weeks of music nt the cabin, in which she had learned the beginnings of culture and training. Hcr music muster opened new and beautiful vistns for her, told her of the great musicians and singers that the world had known, described the opera houses of Kurope. tin- brilliant audiences, the siilcndld ballets, the great orchestras, and prom ised hcr that if she worked hard she might one dnv h'-iomc a part of all this. She had learned to believe him now. for she taw that ns time went ou ho was muic exacting with her work, more spin In;: iu his praiso of hcr, and she had worked hard in despair at times, but with u slowly growing con li'dencp in her star of destiny. And nil the while she was wondering why Peter Nichols wns doing this for hcr and what the outcome of it all was to be. Ho spoke little of the future except to hint vaguely nt Icssoiib cIhp. wlieiu when ho hud tuught her all that he knew. The' present it seemed was sufficient for thein both. His moods of soberness, of joy, of enthusiasm, wero till catching mid bIio followed him blindly, uwnre of this great new cle ment iu hcr life which was to make the old life difficult, if not impossible. Hn treated hcr always with respect, not even touching her arms or waist iu passing an acccpiiu laiuinanror ot lnn liv olrlu nt llIT Rncllll cIllSS. Rctll Understood that It was u consideration duo to u delicate situation, tliu same lonslderatlon which had impelled her ulwns to call him Mr. Nichols. And ct it was this very consideration of Peter's that vexed hcr. It wasn't nu ulr of superiority, for she couldn't have stood that.
