When we went to the concert we were told three's a crowd. And I say one good turn deserves another." "Oh, Harry, you are so full of nonsense. Let Lucille go!" said Iola. "Indeed I will not. I want to have a good time as well as you," said Harry. "Oh, you're the most nonsensical man I know," interposed Miss Delany. Yet she stayed with Harry. "You're looking very bright and happy," said Dr.
He returned to the cabin, tore a leaf from his scout notebook and wrote, but he had to blink his eyes to keep back the tears. "Dear Roy: "I think you'll have more fun if you two go the rest of the way alone. I always said two's a company, three's a crowd. You've heard me say it and I ought to have had sense enough to remember it. But anyway, I'm not mad and I like you just as much.
He cannot stop to explain to every applicant that among what Robert Louis Stevenson described as "the real deficiencies of social intercourse" is the fact that while two's company three's a crowd; that with each addition to this crowd the topics of conversation must broaden in appeal, seeking the greatest common divisor of interests; and that a corollary is the unfortunate fact that the larger the crowd the fewer and more elemental must become the subjects that are possible for discussion.
Lizzy walked away, and began hunting checkerberries with an unusual ardor. She did understand; she would not be Mademoiselle de Trop any longer.

What I mean to say is I can leave to-morrow." "My dear Grace," said Paul hurriedly, "whoever thought such a thing? We couldn't get on without you. All that Maggie meant was that it takes time to settle down.

I have known a black-fishing expedition stopped because a "yellow yite," or yellow-hammer, hovered round the gang when they were setting out. Still more ominous was the "peat" when it appeared with one or three companions. An old rhyme about this bird runs "One is joy, two is grief, three's a bridal, four is death."
