Especially for the young, he said; and he became paternal and platitu- dinous over the perils of the wide, wide world in general, and then with rather awkward unconcern announced his hope that Teddie was making a Bo of it. But Teddie wasn’t making a go of it, as she very well knew, and for one weak moment she was tempted to take this kindly-eyed and clean- hearted old gentleman into her con- fidence and exteriorate her troubles by freely and frankly talking them over with one ofgher own kind, But a revival of her old spirit of independence nipped this impulse in the bud, so she merely gave the Com- modore another cup of tea and some- what pensively asked if the autumn ball at Tuxedo had been a success this year, Whereupon the @ld Commodore ad- mitted that {t had been a success, if you could call guch things a success, But they weren't like the good old days of the Patriarchs and the As- semblics and The Howling Swells.
