Still, if we are going to be sophomore sisters we must all stand together." She glanced appealingly about her circle, but on each young face she read plain disapproval. "You might as well try to carry water in a sieve as to reform Mignon," shrugged Muriel Harding. "You can't tame a wildcat," commented Susan Atwell. "Look here, Marjorie," burst forth Jerry Macy.
Atwell, and everybody." "Everybody." The chef smiled with a peculiar droop of one eye. "And he didn't know when the slippas got into the landlo'd's box?" "No. The fust thing he knew, the' they we'e!" Clementina stood expectant, but the chef smoked on as if that were all there was to say, and seemed to have forgotten her. "Who do you think put them thea, Mr. Mahtin?"
Atwell proposed her going and reasoning with Clementina, she said, No, no; better let her alone, if she felt as she did; and perhaps after all she was right.
Dejoining Atwell after the execution I had a hard time trying to keep my secret from him. I think I must have lost at least ten pounds worrying over the affair. Beginning at seven in the evening it was our duty to patrol all communication and front-line trenches, making note of unusual occurrences, and arresting anyone who should, to us, appear to be acting in a suspicious manner.
I don't want to take you away from her, but IF. You sha'n't go int' the dinin'room, or be under anybody's oddas but mine. Now, will you?" "I'll see, Mrs. Atwell. I don't like to say anything till I know what Mrs. Landa wants." "Well, that's right. I decla'e, you've got moa judgment! That's what I used to say about you last summa to my husband: she's got judgment. Well, what's wanted?" Mrs.
The first to arrive, she hastily prepared for the game. Meanwhile, she kept up an earnest thinking as to the course she had best pursue if Mignon and her supporters overstepped the bounds of fair play. But she could make up her mind to nothing. Mere contemplation of the subject was so disagreeable she hated to face it. While she pondered, Susan Atwell bustled in with Muriel Harding.
"If you believe he done it and he no business to why don't you just go to the dance, in 'em, and then give 'em back to him after it's ova? It would suv him right." Clementina listened for a moment of temptation, and then shook her head. "It wouldn't do, Mrs. Atwell; you know it wouldn't," she said, and Mrs. Atwell had too little faith in her suggestion to make it prevail.
A swift-footed messenger had already sped away to find the young composer, who, with the departure of Ronald Atwell had taken the arduous duties of stage manager upon his capable shoulders. When the information of Mignon's collapse reached him, he made no move to go to her.
"Now, you've made Jerry angry, Mignon," laughed Susan Atwell. Mignon merely lifted her thin shoulders. "I can't please every one. If I did, I should never please myself." "I don't know what ails Jerry all of a sudden," commented Muriel to Marjorie. "She isn't usually so so funny." Again Marjorie kept her own counsel.
Armitage will be pleased with your suggestion." "Oh, please don't tell him!" exclaimed Mignon. A shade of alarm crossed her dark face, which was not lost on the professor's companion, Ronald Atwell. A mere acquaintance of Professor Harmon's, he had lately arrived in Sanford, at the close of a season as leading man in a popular musical comedy, to visit a cousin.
