CHAPTER XIX The next morning Caroline hastily swallowed a cup of coffee before Mrs. Wade arrived and was out of the house long before her parents were up. When she returned they were at breakfast. She greeted them breezily. Mrs. Rutledge stared disapprovingly at her costume. , . , “Congratulate me,” she invited. “I’ve obtained a position!” Her mother lifted inquiring eyebrows. Her father looked pleased. “Old clothes, an assumed name •nd evidence of • willing spirit did it,” Caroline explained. “An assumed name?” her mother echoed. “Is it something you’re ashamed of?” “Not at all. I had to fool Henry Dunsworth—in case he ever hears the names of his employes.” “Henry Dunsworth!” her father ejaculated. “You don’t mean .. .” “No breadline for me,” Caroline broke in. “There’s a new order of things. I belong to it. It’s my day. I’m going to start at the bottom as William Rutledge did and make myself valuable to society. If technocracy or anything like it comes along and tells me when and how to work—okey—but I’m not going to starve in the meantime.” Full comprehension came to her mother. “A factory worker!” she wailed. Mr. Rutledge was tom between indignation and a new respect for his daughter. "A factory worker,” Caroline repeated with pride. “The only thing I needed to make me a person of equal rights in this world. I am now the sociological ideal—an educated, healthy worker. I hope I shall learn to work as successfully as I learned to play. I got the job half an hour ago and I’m beginning already to feel the satisfaction of earned leisure. Think of what an evening of idleness will be like after a day of labor!” “But where will it get you—this sort of thing?” her father pressed. “You won’t make enough money to fill your leisure with the kind of play you learned to enjoy.” “I think,” Caroline said stoutly, "no matter what’s coming, there will always be a premium on brains. I’m going to develop mine. They’re good brains—you know that You and the men and women who passed you your genes have given me a good start I’m going back to the Uto study at night. I’m going to learn about chemistry, and some day I’ll know how to run the factory.” This was too much for Mrs. Rutledge The next quarter hour was taken up with bringing her out of a heart attack. Her daughter in a factory! She couldn’t bear it! But she did, for Caroline would not give it up. The factory work, because she saw each day given to it as a step upward to greater achievement, was thrilling to her. It irked her only in that it was confining. Her father one night, in an ill humor, questioned her ultimate success. She argued that she was successful, that she wanted greater achievement only in order to pay the world back what it had given her. “Where do you get sueh ideas?” her mother asked fretfully. “From the young man next door,” Mr. Rutledge supplied sneeringly. “I imagine he expounds them in order to give an illusion of importance to his very bumble position in society.” Caroline’s eyes darkened. “When you talk like that, father,” she said musingly, “I’m inclined to think you’re afraid of those at the bottom of the heap.” “What nonsense are you talking now?” “It isn’t nonsense.” Caroline differed, “it’s the handwriting on the wall. If you can’t see it, that will be your misfortune. You can’t just stand still, and keep up with the world.” “Are you being impertinent?” Mr. Rutledge said severely. “I don’t mean to be, but you are rude when you speak as you did about one of my friends. I think I owe more to Malcolm than to anyone else in the world. Without him it's very probable I couldn’t have

got work even in a factory. He has some influence—in the very factory that you lost. Doesn’t that mean anything to you?” “What could it possibly mean?” “It means that the necessity for work has forced him to fulfill his obligation to society. He’s in the swim—he can keep on going—anywhere, perhaps. While you . . . you seem to have no sense of sociological responsibility whatsoever!” “Caroline!” her mother interposed. “I don’t know what you mean but it sounds like something you should not be saying to your father.” “Some one has to say it to him, Caroline declared. “It’s only fair that I should do it—he did as much for me.” She turned to her father. “You told me I had to get a job, didn't you?” she challenged. “Well,
/ fA t “If you catch on above Malcolm then you can talk about his humble position; until you do, you’re not up to his level!”
I’d tried, before that, but I thought I eould be a bit particular. And that’s what you’re doing—waiting for something you want. You don’t seem to realize that you’ve lost the position you inherited and that you’ll have to start wherever you can get a foothold to climb up again. If you catch on above Malcolm, then you can talk about his humble position ; until you do, you’re not up to his level!” Philip Rutledge gasped, his face reddened, and he appeared on the verge of losing his self-control, but under Caroline’s coolly defiant gaze he slowly calmed down. “I certainly shan’t go to Henry Dunsworth for a position, if that is what you are thinking of,” he snapped. “No. And I’m aware that jobs are not to be had for the asking. But you could give up the notion that labor with your hands is a shameful thing and help me get a garden laid out in the backyard. You could put in walks and build a lily pool and a rock garden. Malcolm has loads of plants and bulbs we can put in this fall. And you have only to go down to the river for all the rocks you require. I won’t need the car any more. Malcolm’s putting an extra seat on his motorcycle to take me to work.” Mrs. Rutledge was stunned, but Philip answered explosively: “It’s disgraceful! I forbid you to do such an unseemly thing!" Caroline smiled. “Please don’t resort to ridiculous gestures, father.” she said quietly. “I haven’t told you everything Malcolm and I have another reason for needing a means of transportation of our own.”

“Malcolm’s going to the U too. Caroline explained: “Fortunately, for me, else I don’t know how 1 d get there.” _ „ “Just for the ride, I suppose, her father remarked sarcastically. “Not altogether. I told you he ■ ambitious. The special night classes they’ve started will give him his chanee.” “His chance? I thought you considered him well established, or is your ambition for him greater than his own?” “I merely told him what opportunities there are at the university. Caroline answered coldly. "H« needed no urging to take advantage of them. As I remember it, he said he’d be a sap to pass up anything provided for hi* advancement. Which comes down to this, darling: nature has provided some beautiful rocks at the river. Will you get
them and bring them here to advance the civic standard of our back-yard, or won’t you?” “I won’t—as you well know. The analogy is too far-fetched.” Caroline sighed. “I thought you wouldn’t” she said slowly. “I’m sorry, mother,” she added to Alva, "it’s you who have to look at the dreary spot.” She glanced at a clock. "Oh—would you mind letting me use your wrist watch? Minutes count with me now. I’m obliged to watch the time.” She got to her feet. “Malcolm and I are going to enroll. You won’t need the car tonight, will you, father? It’s the last time; we’ll have the motorcycle tomorrow.” Mr. Rutledge shrugged. He hadn’t liked using the street cars while Caroline had the automobile, but he’d not complained inasmuch as It wouldn’t run unless she and Malcolm kept it in repair. And he guessed quite accurately that the young man wouldn’t touch it if it were not for Caroline’s use. He did not want to tell Caroline that he hadn’t any money to spend on it —that he’d mortgaged the house and failed on the market again, on the advice of a man he’d trusted. This loss rankled deeply. Philip Rutledge suspected that it was the result of a fair-weather friend’s boredom. He had gone to see the man at his office, caught him at a busy moment. He was sure now that the man had given him the bad tip merely to get rid of him because he wasn’t interested in the matter which Philip had wanted to talk to him about.
