his boyish way, was Dolly's devoted
adorcr and she had nearly wept her
eyes out when he went to school for
the first time, She was lovely girl
of 16 when the young man came from
college for his first vacation, and even
Teddy, the unsentimental felt a sud

had not seen much of Dolly, while he
and Phyllis had met at all kinds of

storm she was arousing in the young

However, she merely supposed that
something must be done to break the
silence and coax Teddy back TO good
humor, so she began casually:
Il wonder what Dollys doing lust
now?"
Teddy flung away his cigarette.
Hang Dolly" he said, in way that
made Phyllis open her eyes and stare
at him. Look here, Phyl," he went
