"You are a coward in submitting yourself to the influence of this base assassin," cried Jen, enraged by the calmness of the young man.

Patricia smiled and opened her lips, but the words died away, as Bruce, now with a gayety that bespoke a different sort of announcement, mounted the model stand in the middle of the room, and rapped loudly for attention.
