"Married!" gasped Mavis.
"Yes!" laughed Miss Allen. "And with a family."
When Mavis got over her astonishment at this last bit of information, she remarked:
"But you said she would be all right."
"So she will be, with luck," declared Miss Allen.
"What—what on earth do you mean?"
"What I say. Why, if every girl who got into trouble didn't get out of it, I don't know what would happen."
Mavis wondered what the other meant. Miss Allen continued:
"It's all a question of money and knowing where to go."
"Where to go?" echoed Mavis, who was more amazed than before.
