She climb upon der shteeple, Und she frighten all der people, Singin' michnai ghignai shtingal! Yah! Yah!" she quoted; and Ford's heart went out to her in new and comradely outreachings. "You read Naught-naught-seven?" he said: "you are one woman in a thousand." "Merci!" she countered. "Small favors thankfully received.
