"Neither Miss Ross nor Miss Girond is a chorus-girl," he said though he wasn't going to lose his temper over nothing. "They have both sung in the chorus," she retorted, snappishly.
"I've got to help you!" she said to his desk, to his bag of Bull Durham, to his alarm-clock even to a rather shocking collection of pictures of chorus-girls and diaphanously-clad dancers which was pasted inside the double drawer on the right side of the desk.

She was small and quiet, and rather pretty. They got on splendidly. Their conversation, at first confined to the weather and the moving-pictures, rapidly became more intimate.
