"Did she?" sighed Genevieve.
"What a lugubrious face!" laughed Harold. "Suppose you tell me what is the matter with Miss Hart, eh?"
"I can't. It's just an intangible, indefinable 'don't-like-her' feeling. She doesn't sit still a minute, and she's awful on rules. Tilly calls her 'Miss Hartless.'"
Harold laughed.
"Trust Tilly to call her something!" he rejoined. "But I don't believe the lady will be half bad when you get used to her."
"That's what your cousin Alma says."
"Well, I believe she's right," declared Harold. "It sounds to me as if Miss Hart were nervous and afraid."
Genevieve opened her eyes.
"Afraid! A teacher afraid!"
"Wouldn't you be afraid if you had to follow where you know there had been such favorites as Miss Holbrook and Miss Palmer were?"
