You can't hide it in a closet, you know, or under the bed." "And let them take it away? Never." My tone was firm, and he saw that I meant it, especialy when I explained that there would be nothing to do in the country, as mother and Sis would play golf all day, and I was not allowed at the Club, and that the Devil finds work for idle hands.
No girl who is happy and has not a tradgic story stays at home shut up at a messy desk when everyone is out at the Club playing tennis. Don't talk to me about a Career. A girl's Career is a man and nothing else. And especialy after last winter, Bab. Is is it the same one?" Here I made my fatal error. I should have said at once that there was no one, just as there had been no one last Winter.
As I was missing by that time, Jane put two and two together and made an Elopement. Sometimes I sit and think things over, my fingers wandering "over the ivory keys" of the typewriter they gave me to promise not to elope with anybody although such a thing is far from my mind and the World seems a cruel and unjust place, especialy to those with ambition.
But why this unseemly haste?" So I told him, and he understood perfectly, although I did not say that I had already plited my troth. "Of course," he said. If she refuses me, we might become engaged.

They said that we thought we were the whole summer Colony, although every one was afraid of mother's tongue, and nobody would marry Leila, except Carter Brooks, and he was poor and no prospects.
If any parents or older sisters read this, let them see how wrong it is to leave any member of the familey in the dark, especialy in AFFAIRES DE COUER. Having seen from the verandah window that I had comitted an enor, and unable to bear any more, I crawled in the pantrey window again and went up stairs to my Chamber. There I undressed and having hid my weapon, pretended to be asleep.
Although I spent but fifty-eight dollars and sixty-five cents on the TROUSEAU that day, I felt uneasy, especialy as, just afterwards, I saw in a window a costume for a woman CHAUFFEUR, belted lether coat and leggings, skirt and lether cap. But luckaly we were packing for the country, and she did not find it.
