...immediately oust his successful rival and possibly Father Girard. Young Sister Elizabeth talks about sex right out in the open and vents a precocious materialism. She and her mother so belabor gentle Geraldine that she, cowed, consents to marry Chandler. But beforehand, with an abandon quite inconsistent with her chill softness, she gives herself to the disconsolate Wells. This she blurts out at a Christmas feast given by Chandler for practically the entire cast. Does Chandler react as" one might have expected from Mother Girard's warnings? He does not. He is happy in the happiness of the lovers...

On her quarterdeck, under the after gun turret, rested a flag-draped coffin of rosewood. Within the coffin lay the body of Myron Timothy Herrick, late U. S. Ambassador to France, going home...
...should be well iced in bottle; but red wines ought to be decanted some hours before serving, placed in the dining room, and allowed gradually to assume its temperature. Absolutely ruinous to the bouquet of any wine, according to Mr. Reeves-Smith, is the awful vandalism of "taking the chill off" by setting the dacanter in hot water. A simple brandy of the finer sort is today the only liqueur taken by smart males and connoisseurs, in the experience of the Director General. But smart women go in for everything from Creme de Menthe, Chartreuse...
