Dimensions: 9.0in. x 6.0in. x 0.5in.You hear me, Saxon Come on along. What if it is the Bricklayers Ill have gentlemen friends there, and soll you. The Al Vista bandll be along, an you know it plays heavenly. An you just love dancin- Twenty feet away, a stout, elderly woman interrupted the girls persuasions. The elderly womans back was turned, and the back--loose, bulging, and misshapenbegan a convulsive heaving. Gawd! she cried out. O Gawd! She flung wild glances, like those of an entrapped animal, up and down the big whitewashed room that panted with heat and that was thickly humid with the steam that sizzled from the damp cloth under the irons of the many ironers. From the girls and women near her, all swinging irons steadily but at high pace, came quick glances, and labor efficiency suffered to the extent of a score of suspended or inadequate movements. The elderly womans cry had caused a tremor of money-loss to pass among the piece-work ironers of fancy starch. She gripped herself and her iron with a visible effort, and dabbed futilely at the frail, frilled garment on the board under her hand. I thought shed gotem againdidnt you the girl said. Its a shame, a woman of her age, and. . . condition, Saxon answered, as she frilled a lace ruffle with a hot fluting-iron. Her movements were delicate, safe, and swift, and though her face was wan with fatigue and exhausting heat, there was no slackening in her pace. An her with seven, an two of em in reform school, the girl at the next board sniffed sympathetic agreement. But you just got to come to Weasel Park to-morrow, Saxon. The Bricklayers is always livelytugs-of-war, fat-man races, real Irish jiggin, an. . . an everything. An the floor of the pavilions swell. But the elderly woman brought another interruption. She dropped her iron on the shirtwaist, clutched at the board, fumbled it, caved in at the knees and hips, and like a half-empty sack collapsed on the floor, her long shriek rising in the pent room to the acrid smell of scorching cloth. The women at the boards near to her scrambled, first, to the hot iron to save the cloth, and then to her, while the forewoman hurried belligerently down the aisle. The women farther away continued unsteadily at their work, losing movements to the extent of a minutes set-back to the totality of the efficiency of the fancy-starch room.
