Peter rushes upstairs two at a time and meets Avia Werth at a door across the hall. Curiosity overcomes his plan to ignore the neighbor as he confronts the unexpected intrusion into his afternoon work.
Peter works on a marble prize piece in his spacious studio while Avia, his neighbor, seeks social contact and hints at marriage. She notices Camilla's etchings, grows jealous, and questions whether love and support shape men’s lives.
Peter frets over Avis Werth, a confident neighbor who wants social visits and a studio tour. Sylvia, observing from a distance, senses Avis’s plans while hoping Peter stays wary of the “model” who moves into the hall across the way.
In a noon knock at a neighbor’s door Avis invites Peter to lunch. She appears in scarlet satin pajamas embroidered with dragons, exuding wealth and self assured charm. Peter, unsettled, ponders her bold impulse as the scene hints at a continuing tense allure.

The report also requests ministerial authority to create full time health districts and allocate administration costs between local and provincial governments.
Mr C Elford reports the disposal of Canadian birds shown at the Rome World Poultry Congress last summer. Most stock went to the Italian Experiment Station. Prof Ghigi chose Canadian birds for government work and took home breeding pens of Barred Rocks and White Leghorns from Canada in 1927.
Britain's mail for the year ending last March totaled 6 640 000 000 letters and packets. The saying that a man needs only push if he lacks pull hints at the era's belief in effort over influence.
