Grace Harlowe’s Senior Year at High School

CHAPTER XXIII
18/28

The senior class, by reason of the popularity of the Phi Sigma Tau, was considered the class of classes.
"We'll have to put out a 'Standing Room Only' sign," declared Anne Pierson, as she viewed the packed house through a hole in the curtain.
The fateful night had arrived, and Anne, Eleanor and Grace stood in a group on the stage, while Anne industriously took note of the audience.
"Let me look for a minute, Anne," said Grace.

"I don't believe there'll be standing room," she remarked, as she stepped aside to give Eleanor a chance to peer out.
"Come on, girls," called Nora O'Malley, as a burst of applause sounded from the other side of the curtain.

"It's half past eight, and the curtain will go up in about two minutes." The three girls scurried off the stage, the Glee Club filed on and arranged themselves, and the curtain rose.
Each number was applauded to the echo and in every instance the audience clamored for an encore.
As the time for Eleanor's first solo drew near, Anne and Grace felt their hearts beat a little faster.

Nora was giving an encore to her first song.

Eleanor was to follow her.
