Excerpt from The Merry-Go-Round
Mildred is expected home after her first year in boarding school. Her mother wishes to environ her, so to speak. Mildred is delicate in her tastes, so delicate that she scarcely ever expresses her self. Her mind and body are pure; her heart beats faster when she learns of distress. Volup tuousness, Venus, and Vice are all merely words to her. Mother does not explain this to the deco rator. My daughter is returning from school, she says, I want her room done. What style of room? After all you are supposed to know that. I am engaging you to arrange it for me. Your daughter, I take it, is a modern girl?
