BERTRAM DOES SOME QUESTIONING Billy's time was well occupied.

There were so many, many things she wished to do, and so few, few hours in which to do them.

First there was her music.

She made arrangements at once to study with one of Boston's best piano teachers, and she also made plans to continue her French and German.

She joined a musical club, a literary club, and a more strictly social club; and to numerous church charities and philanthropic enterprises she lent more than her name, giving freely of both time and money.
Friday afternoons, of course, were to be held sacred to the Symphony concerts; and on certain Wednesday mornings there was to be a series of recitals, in which she was greatly interested.
For Society with a capital S, Billy cared little; but for sociability with a small s, she cared much; and very wide she opened her doors to her friends, lavishing upon them a wealth of hospitality.
