Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Splinters, 1923, Vol. 33
Miss Beals was coming out Of the library and she smiled at Janet Sue and said, Hello.
Janet Sue had a queer feeling inside her. She wanted to throw her arms about her teacher, but all she did was try to smile sweetly in return. She couldn't even smile, she just grinned with her mouth wide open, and then she ?ew upstairs to her room and wrote a passionate love letter.
Later, her note deep in her pocket, she stole into the school room where Miss Beals taught Algebra. There was another teacher at the desk, Miss Hammond; but she rose at the moment and went out, frowning at the little girl as she passed. Miss Hammond was both gaunt and intellectual, and Janet Sue was secretly afraid of her. Miss Hammond combed her hair straight back; she nearly always wore black dresses; and her mouth was turned down. Janet Sue waited until she had gone, and then she slipped the note into the desk.
