Kindly refrain from disturbing me further." With this significant remark the door was slammed in the faces of the astonished girls.

A second later the click of the key in the lock told them that force alone could effect an entrance to the room.
"Open that door at once," stormed Elfreda, beating an angry tattoo on the panel with her clenched fist.
From the other side of the door came no sound.
"Never mind, Elfreda," said Grace, fighting down her anger.

"Mrs.Elwood will be here soon.

There is some misunderstanding about the rooms.

I am sure of it." "See here, Grace Harlowe, you are not going to give up your room to that beetle-browed anarchist, are you ?" demanded Elfreda wrathfully.
A peal of laughter went up from three young throats.
"You are the funniest girl I ever knew, J.Elfreda Briggs," remarked Miriam Nesbit between laughs.
