He laughs and says that is so but I can see that he is kind of sore about it and he says, “That feller is got Mrs. Edgerton running there to see him every day and telling him her fusses with me and he is calling her up on the phone and making dates with her and I have made up my mind that I am not going to stand it much longer and I have told her so in plain words.” And I says, “But look here Mr. Edgerton,” I says, “how is this that you are calling me up on the phone and making dates with me and you do not want her to object to that,” I says. “Oh,” he says, “but that is different.” And I says, “But why is it different?” and he says, “Because it is a matter of business with you and me.” And I says, “Yes, but it is a matter of business with him also and if he is getting ten dollars an hour for it it is a matter of very good business indeed.” He is kind of embarrassed and says, “She has not failed to point that out to me.” And I says, “She naturally would not fail because we women are good at seeing things that is right in front of our eyes,” I says, “and what is sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander though not meaning to speak disrespectful of you and Mrs. Edgerton,” I says. “Now you have got to give her a square deal and you may be sure that I am not going to help you do nothing else.” And he laughs and says that I have become his syker and I says, “Well at least I have cost you less than ten dollars an hour,” I says. Well we go to a restaurant a swell one because I have got my swell new clothes now and I have got my bright hair all cut off and my head fixed with a veil and I am a respectable Emergency Field Grammarian so that a member of the Administration can buy me a dinner without its being a scandal. And Mom in this place they are so respectable that they bring the cocktails to you in a soup-tureen and you eat them out of a dish with a spoon and gee Mom it is so funny! And we are talking all about international affairs and Mr. Edgerton tells me the most interesting things it seems that the police has just arrested a way high-up bootlegger and how they come to do such a thing he cannot say but the police is getting more and more higher handed all the time. I shall never forget my indignation while that one was shooing me away from the Elite Beauty Parlors while I was leading the strike.
