It was an ordinary visiting card with a line of writing under its neatly engraved "Miss Constance Bailey," and Yetta regarded it with envying eyes. "What does it says?" she asked. "Well," admitted Eva with reluctant candour, "I couldn't to read them words but I guess it says I should come all places what I wants the while I'm good girls." "Can you go all places where you wants mit it?"
From time to time she would flirt her interlocked hands, in feigned absent-mindedness, thus flashing her diamonds upon the people around her. At one moment it became something like a race between her and Auntie Yetta.
"Your mamma sent you to the store?" she interpreted and Yetta nodded dolefully. "And did you give her my message about that last week? Did you tell her that she must send you to school before nine o'clock?" Again Yetta nodded, silent and resigned, evidently a creature bound upon the wheel, heart broken but uncomplaining.
I don't need em! I" with a sob of passionate longing "I'm got all times a awful scare over 'em. Let's go home, Patrick. Becky needs she should see her mamma, und I guess I needs my mamma too." School had been for some months in progress when the footsteps of Yetta Aaronsohn were turned, by a long-suffering Truant Officer, in the direction of Room 18.
She addressed them at first in deliberate tones, and Arthur noted that the interest was genuine he wondered how long his fat-witted club friends could endure or appreciate the easy manner in which Yetta Silverman quoted from great thinkers, and sprinkled these quotations with her own biting observations.
The same misgiving had visited Eva, but she thrust it loyally from her. "They're the latest," she declared. "It's good they're the style," sighed Yetta. "Mine dress is a buttoned-in-back-dress, too. On'y I loses me the buttons from off of it. I guess maybe I sews 'em on again. Teacher could to have, maybe, kind feelings, sooner she sees how I puts me on mit buttons on mine back und "
Levinsky is said to be worth a million, you know." "She's always joking," I said, awkwardly, as we resumed our walk Miss Tevkin made no answer, but I felt that Auntie Yetta's joke had made a disagreeable impression on her. I sought to efface it by a humorous sketch of Auntie Yetta, and seemed to be successful The village was astir.
Mary Agatha and Kitty and Nora and Anne must go at noon, three times a week, to their Confirmation Class. Then Yetta and Paula could not come at all on their instruction days, because the Lutheran Church was far up-town in Germanberg. They, too, were making ready for Confirmation. Again Miss Fanny reminded them all of Examination. Just at this time Emmy Lou was having trouble of her own.
"I said a bird," was the dogged reply. And then Yetta walked up to Arthur and asked: "Where have you been? Why haven't you called?" He blushed. "I was ashamed." "Because you were so, so frightened, that night?" "Yes." "But nothing came of the affair. The police could get no evidence. We had no flags " "That scarlet one I saw you with what of it?" She smiled.
When the Grand Street car had borne Miss Bailey away Yetta turned to Eva with determination in her eye and the "paper mit writings" in her hand. "I'm goin' on the country for see my papa und birds und flowers und all them things what Teacher tells stands in the country. I need I should see them." "Out your mamma?" Eva remonstrated. "'Out, 'out my mamma. She ain't got no time for go on no country.
