"Your books have gotten out to Wisconsin, and that's fame enough for any man." "Have they really?" said Arnold. "I supposed they only wrote notices of them in the papers." "Oh, yes," murmured Miss Normaine. "Ellis has turned out clever, one never knows." "I guess they're good, too," went on Donald; "I tell 'em I used to think you wrote well in college." "I thought I did, too," answered Arnold.
"Oh, well, there's another race next year," he said to somebody who spoke to him as he sat down in the end seat. It was early for such optimism, and they thought Herbert had a disgustingly cheerful temperament. Alice returned just as Miss Normaine and Arnold came up, and they all went back together, collecting the rest of the party as they went to their train.
"Yes, I know, Alice, but I really can't promise to take you anywhere to-morrow. "I don't want you to I only want to confide in you." "Oh, dear, what have you been doing now?"

"Who's that man squeezing through the crowd to speak to Aunt Katharine?" asked Alice. "That? Oh, that's one of the old boys." "I can see that for myself." "He's a Judge Donald of Wisconsin.
Do tell me that he is," urged Miss Normaine with pathos. "He seems just out of college to me, and I don't like to think that I've lost all sense of proportion." "Oh, no, you haven't," said Arnold, consolingly. "It's only he that has lost his. He doesn't take exercise enough. He's coming this way to speak to you. You had better think of something more flattering to say."
Miss Normaine laughed a little. The conversation was decidedly intermittent. They dropped it entirely at times, and then took it up as if there had been no pause. It was after a brief silence that she went on: "But you and I can see both boats the success, and the disappointment too.
