"What do you wish ?" she asked with cold precision.
"I am sorry to be obliged to tell you that if you do not allow Miss Taylor to occupy her half of the room, you are likely to be asked to leave Wayne Hall," said Grace gravely.

"Mrs.Elwood was displeased over what happened last night, and I know that when she learns of what has happened to-day she will not overlook it.

We do not wish to see you leave Wayne Hall, and besides, the various college houses are filling fast.

You might have difficulty in securing a desirable room elsewhere." "Is there any reason why I should not occupy this room alone ?" "None whatever, if you arranged for a single beforehand," interposed Elfreda shrewdly.

"If you did, I can't see why Mrs.Elwood consented to take Miss Taylor." "I did not arrange for a single room," was the stiff response.
"Then you haven't any case, have you ?" queried Elfreda cheerfully.
