I don't care a lot about it, but if everybody is going in for the game, I am, too." "Yes, do, Patty; it's just in your line, and you can do it a whole lot better than that girl did last year,--you know whom I mean, Ethel." "Yes, Ray Rose----" "Ray Rose," said Patty, "what a pretty name!" "Pretty girl, too," said Ethel Merritt, who was calling at Pine Laurel.
"Also, she isn't going to like it any too well to have Miss Fairfield take her part." "Oh, is it her part ?" asked Patty; "then I won't take it." "Yes, you will.

Mona had gone back home and Philip also, and Roger was in New York.
