What had :environment' done
for Annie Frawdic?
The conclusion was that"nature was
wise and knew,. what she was about;.
Nature might .have presented' him
with Annie F'rawdic,1 but Annie Fraw-
dic had left him unstirred. Nature
knew what she was doing and was
not to be gainsaid.
All this was very satisfactory until,
the first flush of rapture abating, he
began to. wonder where it would lead
hien... He had learned to look on life
through serious eyes, with a realiaa-
that every individual is a factor in so-
ciety and bears a responsibility to-
ward the' common good. And while
nature might be,wise in her biological
selections, society also was wise in
fencing her processes about with the
conventions of marriage. On no oth-
er basis could society continue to ex-
ist as anything short of chaos; Cal
had no doubt about that. The trage-
dy of
rage-dy'of Celesta and.a million others like
her was the price of disregarding the
wise provisions of society for their
own protection.
His thought -flung back to Celesta

new sympathy which he had not

Celesta to account; he had treated
her deflection as something beyond
explanation, and let it go at that. The
blame he placed on her betrayer. l'or

cuse. With a curious pang he recall-

years, he had sworn that if ever fate
