"I like it better than the land of the Amorites and the Hittites," she responded so promptly that the other gaped. "I'll see to it that you don't forget, miss," she said gayly. "Good-bye, Judy; don't be late for lunch, for it's short and sweet with us real artists. We can't potter over our food like you idle Philistines, you know."
