"Whenever you see the g-girl you like dancing with any one else, you just p-put your hand on the man's shoulder, and then she d-dances with you." "And will they all stop for me ?" cried Sandy, not understanding at all why he should have the preference.
"Surely," said Annette.

"And sitting out is when you like a girl so m-much that you would rather take her away to some quiet little corner and talk to her than to d-dance with her." "That'll never be me," cried Sandy--"not while the band plays." "Shall we try it again ?" she asked; and with much scoffing and scolding on her part, and eloquent apologies and violent exertion on his, they struggled onward toward success.
In the midst of the lesson there was a low whistle at the side window.

Annette dropped Sandy's hands and put her finger to her lips.
"It's Carter," she whispered.

"D-dad doesn't allow him to come here." "Little's the wonder," grumbled Sandy.
Annette's eyes were sparkling at the prospect of forbidden fruit.

She tiptoed to the window and opened the shutter a few inches.
At the opening Carter's face appeared.
