sweetest little bungalow," and she removed her sport sweater. "We will have
lots of little flower beds," and her skirt dropped. "Tom, dear, why can’t we
be married in the spring, when all the world is filled with laughter?" and
her camisole came off. "If you prefer the fall, I prefer it, too, because we
are only one, sweetheart," and off dropped her petticoat for she was an
old-fashioned girl. "Tom, dear, tell me," and the very last vestige of her
