noon
Ben always had his eye on the story of to-morrow , and he would face all or any difficulties in pursuit of the end . If he could stop the strike at the Bennington shops it would be a great thing for the Telegraph and a great thing for Ben .

His letter opened all doors . Bennington was in his private office . He read the letter and offered Ben a chair .
