Why not?”

"No, they are not. Geoffrey, people look much better when they are beautifully dressed, don't they?",“Mr. Whitney? Oh, you mean ‘Whiskers,’ who put the engineering bug into Bob’s head, last year. We found him up the river at the cave. Would you like to go up there?”,"Voodoo!" she said, and laughed again.,A tall dark-haired youth in a gray suit and overcoat, who had been standing with his back to them a short distance away, turned and showed a pleasant, homely face with two very lively eyes and a wide, firm mouth.,"A gap?
