Marjorie Eaton said, “What kind of good turns do you do?”
I said, “Well, to give you an instance——”
“You got that out of a book,” Pee-wee shouted. “Just to give you an instance. You don’t know what it means.”
I said, “As I was about to say when I was rudely interrupted, once I knew a poor family that were starving because they didn’t have any coal——”
“You don’t eat coal!” Pee-wee shouted.
Marjorie said, “Yes, what kind of a good turn did you do?”
I said, “I stuck out my tongue and made faces.”
“That shows——” Pee-wee started.
I said, “I went over to the coal-yard where the men were unloading coal from the Drearie Railroad. I took a pail with me. It was enamel, all nice and white. That’s why it was called pale—shut up everybody——”
“Did I say anything?” Pee-wee hollered.
