"David says they're slushy," pursued Patricia, meditating. "But he's only a boy." Patricia joined in David's peal of laughter. "Shades of Hannah Ann defend us!" she cried, gayly. "Don't spring any more bombs like that on us, Infant. We've got to last till lunch time, anyway." "Mercy sakes, we'll be torn to tatters!" cried Miss Jinny from behind her veil.
