The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Red Seal by Natalie Sumner Lincoln: "Hadn't I better stay with them?" she asked. "Have you telephoned

"There is no necessity for giving up our little spree," he declared
cheerily. "The girls don't need a physician. They" - with meaning,
"need a mother's care." He picked up her coronation scarf from the
floor where it had slipped and laid it across her bare shoulders;
the action was almost a caress. She made a lovely picture as she
sat in the high-backed carved chair in her chic evening gown, and as
her soft dark eyes met his ardent look, McIntyre felt the hot blood
surge to his temples, and with quickened pulse he went to the
telephone stand and gave Central a number.
