R R 104 DIAPER LINERS Wherever Baby Goods Are Sold slow smile, "I'm not a baker, Betsey. ' You know more about that flour than I do — and you know it." I flushed and said defensively, "I thought perhaps you might have come across something in one of your pamphlets — " "I read about raising wheat, not using it." We'd stopped talking about the farm. We never seemed to get anywhere in our discussions about it, and then, during December, we were both too busy to even think much about it — I, getting ready for the Christmas holidays, and John, preparing for the January audit. He worked extremely hard all through December and January — and on that I blamed the fact that he often came home low in spirits and short of temper, with a strained look around his mouth. And then in February something happened. A small thing, but revealing. Mr. Farley, John's superior in the auditing department, was in the habit of stopping on his way home to buy rolls for dinner. He always stayed to chat with me for a moment, but on this February afternoon he greeted me briefly, almost curtly, picked up his package of rolls, and hurried out. I stared after his stiff-backed, retreating form. "Now what," I said to Mrs. Evenson, "do you suppose is the matter with him?" T ATER, at dinner, I told John about J-J the incident, and asked him the same question. "I wouldn't know," John said, "except that I almost punched him in the nose this noon." "John!" And I sent a shocked glance toward Mrs. Evenson, who was working late that night and who was having dinner with us. Then John laughed — a rather strange laugh, but it relieved me. "Oh," I said. "For a moment I thought you really meant it." He had meant it. He told me about it afterward when we were alone. "I didn't hit him," he said, "but I was tempted to. We had an argument, and I lost my temper." "An argument? What about?" He shrugged. "It wasn't important — we're usually arguing over something. Don't worry about it, Betsey." I was shocked. It was the first inkling I'd had of trouble at the office. I didn't understand it at all — and then I began to remember little things — the new tight look about his mouth, his edginess . . . even back to the October day when John had wanted to play hookey. Was it possible that he was beginning to resent his job so much that he chafed against it and didn't get along with his co-workers? "If you're not happy there," I said, "why don't you quit?" And then I held my breath, afraid that he would take it to mean that his job meant so little to us that he could easily quit. But he looked hopeful. "And move out to the farm?" I hadn't meant just that. I'd been thinking of his getting another job in town. But now I wanted to say yes, wanted to say anything that would please him, and yet I was afraid. "Perhaps ... if there were some way I could run the bakery at the same time — " John looked at me, and then he turned back to his newspaper. There was an interminable silence, and then I ventured hesitantly, "We ought to be able to work out something." "I don't see how," he said levelly. "You don't want to give up your business— and you can't possibly run it from out of town.
