The day classes are tame—just a speech when you turn in your candy or some such mild diversion, but the night life is more sporting, and they may put you through a course of sprouts, but they're good-natured idiots on the whole. None of us are as outrageous as we seem." Here Maurice set down his cup with a crash, and strode across the room, where he faced Etwald in no very pleasant frame of mind. Judith cuddled close to Bruce on the settee while Elinor went for her wraps. "Don't ever, ever do that again, Billy," I said, giving him both a hug and a shake. "It's piggy to eat more than is good for you and then still want more. What would your father say?".
