Monday morning was almost gone before Henry remembered the order for the glass vase. He checked with Mrs. Lester. “No, Henry, I haven’t seen any package,” Doris said. “You might ask the other clerks. Sometimes a package is taken to the wrong department.” Henry checked with almost everyone in the store. No one had seen his order. There was no extra package of any kind to be found. Doris could see that Henry was worried. “I think I’ll call the company and see if the order has been sent out,” she told him. “Thank you, Doris. I’m certain the customer will be in. I promised she would have the vase today.” Benny came by. “I’m going to get the mail for the departments,” he said. By now, handing out the mail was one of his regular jobs. “See if you can find a glass vase for me,” Henry said. Benny laughed and answered, “I’ll try.” But of course Mr. Furman gave Benny only letters, catalogs, and advertisements to deliver throughout the store. Usually Benny did not stop to look through the mail before he began to give it out.
