"That finishes everything," exclaimed Jeanne Vance, placing a neatly folded handkerchief in a basket. "And oh, girls, what a little bit of a pile it makes!" The five girls drew their chairs closer to the basket and gazed ruefully at its contents. "How many handkerchiefs are there, Jeanne?" asked one.

Now we meet with men who take a decisive part in the fate of India, and they appear as sharply outlined, even though generally unpleasing, personalities.

We announce our trust in God on our money. We proclaim our allegience to our flag and our Republic, in the same sentence that we declare our nation is “under God.” Our Supreme Court begins each term with a plea that “God save the United States and this honorable Court.” Almost every president has invoked God in his inaugural address as well as in moments of national crisis or celebration....
