GIBSON: You mean they're all in a glad condition?
ELLA: Oh, are they, sir! Even the Commiskeys got an automobile last month!
GIBSON: Well, I suppose that's splendid.
ELLA: Didn't you know about it, sir?
GIBSON: No, not a word. I've been pretty deep up in the Maine woods this summer. Have you been over to the factory at all yourself, Ella?
ELLA: Yes, sir; visitors can go round just as they like to. They're glad to have you.
GIBSON: When you've been over there, Ella—you know which one is Miss
Gorodna, don't you?
ELLA: Oh, yes, sir! She's one of the best in managing, Miss Gorodna.
GIBSON: You—did you—have you happened to see her?
ELLA: Yes, sir, once or twice.
