"Good-by," she replied, then looking over her shoulder, she said: "I'm glad I don't have to go to private school; it's too stupid." "The horrid, rude girl," whispered Nina Earl, but Arabella surprised them all by saying: "I think I'd like that Patricia What's-her-name; she isn't like everybody else."

Bring up another chair, and we'll go through a whole programme of classics pruggrum, I mean." "Let's see, though," said Jane, looking at her watch. "Mercy me! where has the morning gone?
