"In a word," interrupted Jen, "this black witch had hypnotized Mrs. Dallas." "She's coming over after life class," Elinor went on, closing her eyes wearily. "I found I'd forgotten my keys when I got home, and she's going to bring them over for me on her way home." "Well, I just guess it isn't any game," retorted Judith with a toss of her mane. "It's the most important thing in life to me," and she stalked off towards the door with great dignity..

"What's Bruce doing here?" asked Patricia, as they resigned themselves to the inevitable and prepared to await the event.
