Miss Rita Cohen, a tiny, pale-skinned daughter who looked half the age of Seymour'due south daughter, Marie, but claimed to be some half dozen years older, came to his factor)' 1 day. She was dressed in overalls and ugly-large :hoes, and a bush-league of wiry hair framed her pretty face. She was and then tiny, so young that he could barely believe that she was at the University of Pennsylvania, doing inquiry into the leather industry in New Bailiwick of jersey for her Principal'south degree.

3 or four times a year someone either phoned Seymour or wrote to him to inquire permission to sec his factory, and occasionally he would assist a student past answering questions over the phone or. if the pupil struck him as particularly serious, by offering з brief bout.

Rita Cohen was nearly every bit modest, he thought, as the children from Mane'due south third-year form, who'd been brought the 50 kilometres from their rural schoolhouse 1 day, all those years ago, so that Marie's daddy could show them how he made gloves, show them especially Marie's favourite spot, the laying-off table. where, at the end of the process, the men shaped and pressed each and every glove by pulling information technology carefully downward over steam-heated brass easily. The hands were dangerously hot and they were shiny and they stuck directly up from the table in a row. sparse-looking, like hands that had been flattened. Every bit a footling daughter, Marie was captivated past their strangeness and chosen them the 'pancake hands'.

He heard Rita asking, 'How many pieces come in a shipment?' 'How many? Between twenty and xx-five yard.' She continued taking notes as she asked, 'They come direct to your shipping section?'

He liked finding that she was interested in every concluding particular. 'They come to the tannery. The tannery is a contractor. We buy the material and they make it into the right kind of leather for u.s.a. to work with. My grandfather and father worked in the Unnery correct here in boondocks. So did I, for 6 months, when I started working in the business. E'er been within a tannery?' 'Not yet.' "Well, you lot've got to get to a tannery if you're going to write well-nigh leather. I'll prepare that upwardly for yous if you'd like. They're primitive places. The applied science has improved things, just what you lot'll see isn't that different from what you lot'd have seen hundreds ot years ago. Awful piece of work. It'due south said to be the oldest manufacture of which remains have been found anywhere. Six-thousand-year-old relics of tanning found somewhere — Turkey, I believe. The beginning habiliment was only skins that were tanned by smoking them. I told yous it was an interesting subject area once you get into information technology. My father is the leather scholar; he's the otic you should be talking to. Start my father off nearly gloves and he'll talk for 2 days. That'south typical, by the way: glovemen love the trade and everything about it. Tell гас, have you ever seen annihilation being manufactured, Miss Cohen?' 'I can't say I accept." 'Never seen annihilation made?' 'Saw my female parent nuke a block when I was a child.'

He laughed. She had made him express joy. An innocent with spirit, eager to learn. His daughter was easily 30cm taller than Rita Cohen, fair where she was dark, but otherwise Rita Cohen had begun to remind him of Marie. The good-natured intelligence that would only waft out of her and into the firm when she came abode from schoolhouse, full of what she'd learned in class. How she remembered everything. Everything neatly taken down in her notebook and memorised overnight.

'I'll tell you what we're going to do. Nosotros're going to bring y'all right through the whole process. Come on. We're going to make you a pair of gloves and you're going to watch them existence made from start to finish. What size do you habiliment?'
