He hung up the receiver. " also mus' be stipulated that case of div'dend bein' passed " The desk telephone again rang, this time more emphatically. Bean was chilled by a premonition that the flapper meant to pull off that funny stunt which was to cause him quite deliciously to die laughing. Breede grasped the receiver again impatiently. "Busy, tell you! No time nonsense! What! What.
"I suppose people have been wondering where I was," confessed the flapper as they descended upon the granite steps. "I forgot to tell them I was going. Better hurry to Pops or he'll be murdering some one." A man took his bag and preceded him into the big hall. "Engaged, too!" called the flapper bitterly. He found Breede imprisoned in a large, light room that looked to the west.
They had called the flapper aside and apparently told her something for her own good, though the flapper had not liked it, and had told them with much spirit that they were to perfectly mind their own affairs. Bean had fled into the throng on deck.
The man with the eyeglass took up his position, and issued some order, but his voice was so low that the men nearest him could not hear the command. "Shout!" yelled the adjutant. "Don't mumble like a flapper who has just got her first kiss. It's not allowed on parade." The order was repeated, and the voice raised a little. "Louder, louder!" yelled the adjutant.
Such an unconscionable length of time as they do take for their parchment doings, heeding nought of that little impatient flapper Cupid."
"Good night!" snapped the flapper in her turn. He had walked quickly away while porters were collecting the bags. "Keep on the main street," he thought, plunging ahead. He did not change this plan until he discovered himself again at the door of that hotel he meant to leave. It faced a circle, and he had traversed this. He fled down a cross-street and again felt free.
The flapper played her ancient game of looking at him in that curious way. Grandma looked at them both, then meaningly at Bean. She spoke. "I'll say very frankly that I wouldn't marry you myself." He blinked, then he pretended to search with his eyes for their vanished waiter. But it was no good. He had to face the Demon, helpless.
She convoyed him to the dining-room, where he was welcomed by a waiter who had sorrowfully thought not to come to his notice. He greedily scanned the menu card, while the waiter, of his own initiative, placed some trifles of German delicatessen before them. "It is a lot rougher," said the flapper. "Isn't it too close for you in here?"
It was extempore and had caught him unawares. The harried Bean fled to the telephone booth. "I wanted to tell you," began the flapper, "not to eat anything out of cans unless I just perfectly have it on my pure-food list.
He drove with a stick with a curved spike at the end of it, which, when the elephant was bad, was hooked into the membranous "flapper," always evoking the uprearing and brandishing of the proboscis, and a sound of ungentle expostulation, which could be heard a mile off. He sat on the head of the beast, sometimes cross-legged, and sometimes with his legs behind the huge ear covers. Mr.
