She would never forget those sad eyes that followed her when she was ordered away. The eloquent teacher looked to see some immediate tangible effect from this bald statement of the result of Jonah’s disobedience, and during her recital gazed sternly on Pat Bliggins and Pete Stohway as objects the most in need of her oratory. “You young Hottentots, wot youse been up to?” All too soon Moses’ prophecy proved true..
