Not that all the lady members of the Country Club set are shrinkin' violets who go around costumed in Quaker gray and whisper their remarks modest. Some are about as spiffy dressers as you'll see anywhere and a few are what I'd call speedy performers. But somehow you know who they are and where they came from, and make allowances.

I broke a full-grown allagator across my knee, tore him asunder an' showered his shrinkin' fragments over a full section of land!
