DADDY-LONG-LEGS (4)

Jerusha had an aimagination ー an imagination, Mrs. Lippett told her, that would get her into trouble if she didn't take care ー but keen as it was, it could not carry her beyond the front porch of the houses she would enter.

Poor, eager, adventurous little Jerusha, in all her seventeen years, had never stepped inside an ordinary houses ; she could not picture the daily routine ofthose other human being who carried on their lives undiscommoded by orphan.

  Je-ru-sha Abbott
  You are wanted
  In the office,
  And I think you'd
  Better hurry up !

Tommy Dillon, who had jined the choir, came singing up the stairs and down the corridor, his chant growing louder as he approached room F.

Jerusha wrenched herself from the window and refaced the trouble of life.

" Who wants me ? " she cut into Tommy's chant with a note of sharp anxiety.
