Too casually “Won’t it be something with her red hair?” Harriet felt the stab of her genteel poverty most keenly when it affected her daughter. She felt it now. “Oh, Mom,” said Nancy, turn ing suddenly to face her mother with tear-filled eyes. “Why is life the way it is? Why does Anita have everything looks, money, confidence, brains—She can even | have the pick of any of the boys I at school —” She bit her lip and then smiled at her mother. “Don’t look like that, Mom,” she said. “There’s lone thing Anita doesn’t have, and that’s you. You’re sweet and —and beautiful, too!” Nancy flung on her shabby tweed coat. “The speaker tonight is from your home town. She went to I Crosby high school,” said Nancy. “Linda Cormwell. Do you know her?” “Linda Cormwell?” Harriet said thoughtfully, as she closed the front door behind them. “No. I don’t believe I can recall the name.” “It’s probably her married name,” said Nancy. “She’s old now. Has three grown children, and then went into an advertis ing business of her own and made a big success of it. Anita’s going to introduce her to the I audience.” Anita, Anita, Anita. Harriet heard the name constantly from Nancy Anita was on the winning debating team, Anita was so ’glamorous. Everybody was crazy j about Anita, and she had the teachers eating right out of her hand. Anita’s dad was going to buy her a car for graduation. If I only, thought Harriet bitterly, I Anita Hanso weren’t undermin | ing Nancy’s confidence in herself Nancy compares everything she has with Anita, and she always I loses out in the comparison. Harriet realized that their life wasn’t all that it might be. But Nancy had always seemed happy I in spite of made-over clothes and I lack of money and a father who was sick a great deal. However, during the 'last year, Harriet had watched Nancy become less and less sure of herself. She was growing shy and almost awk ward. This was difficult for Ha'r rie,t to understand. She herself had been very self confident as a girl. “Do you think I’ll be O. K. as a waitress tonight?” asked Nancy. “I’m sure you will, dear,” said Harriet. The lights were on in the .chool building. A group of young people were standing at the door as they went in. Anita’s lovely flaming hair was in the center of the group. Several boys stood around admiring her. Other girls were trying ineffectually to get the boys’ attention. Mrs. Barn stable looked at Anita. She was lovely. Her hair fell around her white shoulders in deep, natural waves. She had delicate, perfect features, and a poise that was far beyond her years. Harriet found a seat at one of the long tables facing the speakers’ table. A faint, indistinct memory stirred in Harriet’s mind as she looked at Linda Cormwell. She ■was a striking slender woman, j dressed in a gold suit. Her sea : | tures were indeterminate, but her smile was one that would not | be forgotton. It was sincere and 1 utterly charming. Harriet noticed with satisfac tion that Nancy had drawn the 1 speakers’ table to serve, but she , also saw her daughter looking nervous and harassed as she ! came in with the tray of fruit , cocktails. Linda Cormwell was talking earnestly to the principal and to ■ Anita, and occasionally Harriet - heard her voice. It was low and clear and earnest. As charming as her smile Linda Cromwell. Linda Cromwell. She wished she could remember. Nancy was passing the plates of rolls at the speakers’ table. As Nancy stood behind Anita’s chair Harriet saw the red-haired girl turn quickly. The tray teetered in Nancy’s hand, and several of the hot rolls slid off the tray into Linda Cromwell’s lap. Harriet saw her daughter’s face flush deep scarlet, and she saw her lips move in an agonized apology. Anita was looking at her mock ingly. Linda picked up the rolls from her lap, and smiled at Nancy with her sweet, sincere smile, “Please don’t feel badly,” she said. Harriet strained to hear every word. “Once when I was about your age I spilled coffee at | a banquet, and the person it happened to was a very crusty old bachelor. I’ll never forget how awful it was.” She went on, “You are very much as I used to be when I was a girl, my dear. Please don’t worry about the accident. Those things happen to all of us.” Harriet rememnered now who she was. Nancy and her mother walked home arm-in-arm. Nancy’s voice was warm and vibrant when she spoke.. “Mother, wasn’t she wonder ful?” “Anita?” asked Harriet brus guely. “Linda Cromwell! Can you re member her now, Mother? Was she really like me?’ “Yes, I do remember her. It came back to me when she was telling you about spilling that coffee. Yes, she was quite a bit like you, dear.” “Do you think I’ll turn out like that when I’m old?” Harriet smiled in the dark. “It’s possible, darling.’ Harriet decided not to tell her daughter the reason she hadn’t I been able to recall Linda was because she had been colorless and shy as a girl. And Harriet wouldn’t have noticed her much anyway. Because Harriet had been the Anita Hanson of Crosby high school.
