Billy said she was training him; that it was wonderful what training would do, and, of course, Spunk WAS little, now. Dinner was half over when there was a slight diversion created by Spunk's conclusion to get acquainted with the silent man at his left. Cyril, however, did not respond to Spunk's advances.
