"Suppose you come and look at the rooms," he added. "I'd be glad to," said Carrie, "but I have a rehearsal this morning." "I did not mean at once," he returned. "Any time will do. Would this afternoon be inconvenient?" "Not at all," said Carrie. Suddenly she remembered Lola, who was out at the time. "I have a room-mate," she added, "who will have to go wherever I do. I forgot about that."
It's elegant," and drawing my arm through hers, my new room-mate hurried me through the Saturday-evening crowd of homeward-bound humanity. It had been an ideal day for March a day touched with pale-yellow sunshine in which one felt the thrill and the promise of the springtime, despite the chill east wind.
His room-mate was still absent, but he was now represented by his state-room baggage, and Burnamy tried to infer him from it. He perceived a social quality in his dress-coat case, capacious gladstone, hat-box, rug, umbrella, and sole-leather steamer trunk which he could not attribute to his own equipment.
Burnamy looked into the dining-saloon and the music-room, with the notion of trying for some naps there; then he went to his state-room. His room-mate, whoever he was to be, had not come; and he kicked off his shoes and threw off his coat and tumbled into his berth. He meant to rest awhile, and then get up and spend the night in receiving impressions.
"And who is your room-mate?" pursued Marjorie, wondering why the girl, whoever she was, should desert Alice, knowing how shy she was. "Esther Taylor," replied the freshman; "but she doesn't bother much with me." It was obvious that poor little Alice was both homesick and lonely, and Marjorie's heart warmed toward her as it might to a lost child.
The sophs will be here in a minute and we may all be hauled up before the faculty. We'll look after Mott." Instantly the freshmen ran from Leland Hall, leaving Will Phelps and Foster Bennett, and Peter John and his room-mate to look after the captive sophomore. "What'll we do with him?" inquired Will hastily. "Take him over to your room."
In the valedictory there were many really touching things, and in rehearsing it before his room-mate Belton had often shed tears. Fearing that he might he so touched that tears would come to his eyes in the final delivery, he had bought a most beautiful and costly silk handkerchief. He carefully stowed this away in the tail pocket of his handsome Prince Albert suit of lovely black.
A vigorous banging of bureau drawers in Priscilla's room was presently followed by Priscilla herself in the doorway. She surveyed her room-mate suspiciously. "Why aren't you dressing?" she demanded. "I'll fasten my own dress; you needn't wait," said Patty, without removing her eyes from the window. "Bishop Copeley's going to preach to-day, and he's such an old dear; you mustn't be late."
By noon Blue Bonnet had met a number of the girls including two of Annabel's most intimate friends: Sue Hemphill, from somewhere in the Middle West, and Ruth Biddle, a Pennsylvania girl. Ruth was Annabel's room-mate; a plain-looking girl, but decidedly aristocratic blue blood written in every line of her delicate features and rather aloof bearing.
"But you have time between recitations in the morning, Edwards, to do some studying, do you not? Other boys manage to both work and play. Why can't you? Look at your room-mate. I believe that he is er on one of the football teams. He seems to get his lessons fairly well. I presume that he has written his composition?" "Yes, sir." "Of course. It is probably here somewhere."
