Miss Gamut cleared her throat, with the determination to sing as she never sang before, and to show the people what a great difference there was between her voice and Azalia Adams's. But the excitement of the moment set her heart in a flutter when she came to the duet, which ran up out of the scale.
"It sounds like a man's voice," Azalia Atwood remarked. "I'll bet a Liberty Bond that it is a man," ventured Ruth Hazelton. "Have you a Liberty Bond?" asked Helen. "I'm paying for one out of my allowance," Ruth replied. Just then the "noise" was repeated, a hoarse hollow vocalization of the Camp Fire Watchword. This time it seemed to be farther away.
Hutchins of our action and get instructions from her for our next move," said Violet Munday. "Second the motion," said Azalia Atwood. "Question!" shouted Harriet Newcomb. "Those in favor say aye," said Miss Ladd. A hearty chorus of "ayes" was the response. "Contrary minded, no." Silence. "The ayes have it." The meeting adjourned.
It isn't right to condemn him, or turn from him, till we know he is not worthy of our confidence. I met him on the bridge last night, and he looked as if he hadn't a friend in the world. I shall stand by him," said Azalia. "Deacon Hardhack and Miss Dobb mean to break down the choir. It is a conspiracy," said Hans, who felt that Paul's case was his own.
One fitted to be the consort of the matchless Azalia and in whom I could see my fondest desires bear fruit.

At every opportunity the prince sought the society of Azalia; and as the holy Brahman Ablano was ever present at their meetings, Garrofat could offer no objection, much as he frowned on their ripening friendship.
When the excitement had in some measure subsided, and the wanderer had embraced Bright-Wits and Azalia, Ablano turned to Garrofat and thus addressed him, "Know, thou who art called Garrofat, that with pride I have watched the success of my dearly beloved pupil in the performance of the various tasks which you have seen fit to impose upon him.
Paul and Azalia, with Hans, went to Colonel Dare's, and, with Daphne, rehearsed the "Star-Spangled Banner," and "America," while Mr. Noggin put a new cord into his drum, which had been lying for months in his garret, and was covered with dust. Evening came.
