CHAPTER X.

Ramsey kept very few things from
Fred Mitchell, and usually his conf
dences were immediate upon the occa-
sion of them; but allowed several
weeks to elapse before sketching for
his roommate the outlines of this ad-
venture.
"One thing that was kind o. funny
about 1t. Fled" he said. 81 didn't

Mr.. Mitchell, stretched upon the
window seat in their study" and look
ing out over THE town street below
and the campus beyond the street. had
already thought 1t tactful to ambush
his profound amusement by turning
upon his side. so that his face was
toward the window and away from his
companion. "What did you want to
call herr" he inquired In serious
voice. "Names?"
"No. You know what l mean. l
mean had to keep calling her you
and that gets kind of freaky when
you're talkin' to anybody good while
like that. When she'd be lookin' away
from me, for instance. or down at the
river, or somewhere, and I'd want to
start sayIp' something to her. you
know. why. wouldn't know how TO
get started exactly, without calm her
something. A person doesn't want TO
be always startin' or with See here
