Meanwhile, Gertrude Wells had engaged Arline in conversation, and Ruth's name was not mentioned again. "This is positively my last appearance this afternoon as a decorator," declared Emma Dean. "I'm going home to beautify myself for the great moment when I shall stand in line with my sophomore sisters to greet the infant freshmen."
But threatening persons with violence that's somehow another thing. And as to villas and piers even to be quite honest I sometimes wonder, Gertrude! I declare, I'm beginning to wonder!
