They needn't work for her father unless they wanted to, of course.... "You should look into a cannery some day, for sights by which I mean that you shouldn't do anything of the sort!... Oh, get us to some quieter street there, Frederick!... But it was my fault for agreeing to go with you. I knew, as you couldn't, that a going factory's no place for a girl delicately brought up.
The factory's life was comprised within the space of the years 1534 to 1597, the years in which lived Ercole II and Alfonso II, the two dukes of the House of Este who established and continued it. It was but little wonder that the great family of the Medici looked with envious eyes on any innovation or success which distinguished a family which so nearly approached in importance its own.
But no flames were visible. Only the red glow of the furnaces lighted up the factory's profile. One by one the lights of the city went out as workers went back to bed, to toss restlessly. Without noise there could be no sleep. The tongues of flame still whispered. A car moved rapidly through the streets of the city. At the wheel was a man dressed in a captain's uniform.
Now that the line was only a few leagues distant the steel works became the almost daily target for 'high velocities. Once the tiles had been shaken from the workshops no visible damage seemed to result from the many hundred shells which fell inside the factory's area.
If these outside shops can be tied up, then that great industry may be crippled. So strikes are fomented in the outside industries. Every attempt is made to curtail the factory's source of supplies. If the workingmen in the outside shops knew what the game was, they would refuse to play it, but they don't know; they serve as the tools of designing capitalists without knowing it.
I feel certain that I could not drop one of the factory's industries without loss to each of the others. For this reason I kept a very simple set of books. I charged the farm with all money spent for it, and credited it with all moneys received. Even now I have no very definite knowledge of what it costs to keep a hen, a hog, or a cow; nor do I care.
"It'll be agreed on in their Union at an early date, on the presupposition that we contribute money; and I consider it very important to get it started. Our opponents find fault with us for getting our materials from abroad. It's untenable in the long run, and must come to an end now. As it is, the factory's hanging in the air; they can cut us off from the supply of materials, and then we're done.
You've been pushing that cart all of four minutes, and you pretend that you don't notice the work." "I expected to work when I left home," Darrin informed him. "If I hadn't felt that I could endure a little fatigue, then I'd have remained at home and looked for a job sleeping in a mattress factory's show-room." Tom subsided after that.
However, the modifications in the general plan won't be serious. I want to talk to you about that." "Have you got contracts, then, already?" "No. Both the War Office and the Admiralty have told me they have all the explosives they want," he sneered. "But I've made a few inquiries, and I think that by the time my factory's up they'll be wanting more explosives than they can get.
And now from the great parlors, and the library, and the "hall," and the guest-chambers echo the rattle of spinning-jennies and the dull booming of whirling pulleys. And above the song of whirring wheels came the songs of girls at their work voices that alone might have been harsh and discordant, but blending with the monotone of the factory's roar were really melodious.
