And yet,” he continued rather to him self than to me, “your hauling the men over the coals has rather a fascination for me. It almost makes me wish I was one of those Sir Galahads that seems to be your ideal. You don’t really think Dick approaches {t, do you?” “Well, he breaks about fifty fifty,” I eaid, with a laugh, “and that is better than most men,” as slangy and irresponsible as a mise just from boarding school “Now, Eliene takes up life alto. gether too seriously.
