"To separate us now after we've been together three years-" "And it isn't as though we were awfully bad last year. Lots of girls had more demerits." "Only our badness was sort of conspicuous," Patty admitted. "But we were very good the last three weeks," reminded Conny. "And you should see my new room-mate!" wailed Priscilla. "She can't be any worse than Irene McCullough." "She is!-Her father's a missionary, and she was brought up in China. Her name is Keren-happuch Hersey, after Job's youngest daughter.
