"Take it up into your room! You have no business in here at all."
"Has," said Sheila Pat, in very judicial tones, "has Herr Schmidt ever told you that you're like a little sunbeam in his room, and just as welcome?"
Miss Kezia seemed a little disconcerted.
"N-no," she said.
"Then you'd better go," the Atom observed. "He's said that to me."
She bent over her writing.
Miss Kezia came closer.
"Please," said Sheila Pat, "don't read what I'm writin'. It's very private."
"May I ask," said Miss Kezia, "if Herr Schmidt has also given you permission to use his writing materials and paper?"
"He hasn't given me permission," said Sheila Pat; "he asked me to do him the honour of placin' them at my disposal."
