David’s family is poor but proud of its “heritage of blood and breeding.” He graduates with an engineering degree but thinks he’s too good to work “for a paltry few dollars a week.” David falls in love with working-class Linda, and David’s mother and father disapprove. David takes an entry-level job as a draughtsman to earn money to marry Linda but he resents it and they break up. When David’s father has a stroke and is admitted to a charity hospital, David realizes what pride has cost them. He takes a laborer’s job in a steel mill and hopes to someday reconcile with Linda.
