Chummys back was to Judy, but the girl knew what her friends face was like. A fierce pang went through her, though she asked herself with scorn whether she was such a worm as to grudge Chummy her happiness. Alan was looking at his companion with his laughter filled eyes.

 Judy was so astonished that she spoke with her mouth full.
 How do you know l could ever pay you back"
 ''I am sure you will. have eyes in my head, and know lot about dancing, although I can't dance myself. I'm too much of an ele- phant, you see. Of course, before we make any plans, would get you to dance before the person I propose as your teacher-M. Guar venius."
