sion for 'detention' or staying after school in
a sort of study hall.

But it was good fun and you met other boys
and girls who liked music, some of them with
fine gifts in the line. And dear me, how wide
Betty's acquaintance had grown to be in these
three years at Lyon High! Hikes and picnics
with the G.A.A. or the class or a few friends;
a party here, a meeting there; the Dramatic
Club, the Latin Club, the Girl Reserve and
Y.W. affairs. Betty needed a private directory,
she declared, not to forget “who was who and
where she had met them.” Some were more in-
teresting than others, and among those who
were interesting she counted the “Pirate of Pen-
zance,” Marcia Waite's brother, from whom she
occasionally heard through Marcia, or Lucia,
who was in Marcia's sorority. Once she had
a very friendly letter from him and at Christ-
mas time he had sent her a card. He always
addressed her as “Titania” in remembrance of
their first meeting on Hallowe'en. It was his
face that she had seen in the mirror. Wouldn't
it be funny if, after all -- but what nonsense!

Carolyn and Kathryn were taking a great in-
terest in swimming in this junior year and now
all three were working hard at the life-saving
tests. Betty longed to have some riding lessons
