Fourth Fragment THE first thing they did when they returned for the last year, was to rush for some blue slips for their Reserved Desks. It took a whole day of careful consideration before they found just the right spot in the reading room and then having selected it they made it as attractive as possible with pictures and fluffy pillows. They knew that they would be spending most of their time there, for now at last had come the promised chance to do Individual Work. And exactly in the middle of the clean green blotter they placed their lily. Something told them that they would need it more than ever before. They were really extremely glad that they need not spend as many hours a week as formerly in the presence of the sages, for they discovered that the pin on their skirts was becoming less and less dependable and that only one shirt-waist remained to them. The latter they would have to save for their occasional trips to the sages for some sort of lead on their next report. At first everything went very smoothly. More and more ink spots appeared on the green blotter, till one afternoon something startling occurred, — they simply could not write another word. This kept on happening more and more often until at last the mighty ones became conscious of the trouble. They had a great meeting about it and after all the grey heads had been shaken and the beards stroked they determined at last upon a Means of Communication. The Medicine Lady was to take the class into her confidence and by well-calculated questions try to discover what had happened to the fine minds they had once had. She accepted the duty gladly, but instead she asked the sufferers whether they had any questions. Of course they all asked the same thing and she was terribly distressed not to be able to answer those who were not engaged. The walk down to her dwelling had been a great effort for their shoes were worn through and their feet hurt. It was doubly depressing to have to return still unable to fill out their marriage questionnaire. But they were triumphant over one point; they would not be found saying that they would not marry a poor man, because they knew that no alternative existed. They had grown very wise indeed about the outside world, for they knew that in a short while they must go out into it and furthermore they knew that it was not going to be very much impressed with them. There were too many others just like them coming out from other cults. In this state of depression they decided to cut up the remaining loaf of bread and make sandwiches out ol it. The returns from these they would offer to help iced the white oxen. For the cult had agreed to have May-Day. Of course there had been some opposition from those who saw it only as belonging to a naive civilization and then lore without a place in a world of Such mature difficulties. But the Bivn Mawrtyrs decided to rise about such petty opposition and show the world that the way to make money was by spending it.
