"
Gee
,
they
're
getting
gayer
and
gayer
,
"
commented
her
brother
oddly
and
a
little
enviously
.
"
Pretty
soon
Lycurgus
'll
be
too
small
to
hold
'em
.
"
He
jerked
at
a
bow
tie
he
was
attempting
to
center
and
grimaced
oddly
as
his
tight
neck-band
pinched
him
slightly
.
For
although
Gilbert
had
recently
entered
into
the
collar
and
shirt
industry
with
his
father
as
general
supervisor
of
manufacturing
,
and
with
every
prospect
of
managing
and
controlling
the
entire
business
eventually
,
still
he
was
jealous
of
young
Grant
Cranston
,
a
youth
of
his
own
age
,
very
appealing
and
attractive
physically
,
who
was
really
more
daring
with
and
more
attractive
to
the
girls
of
the
younger
set
.
Cranston
seemed
to
be
satisfied
that
it
was
possible
to
combine
a
certain
amount
of
social
pleasure
with
working
for
his
father
with
which
Gilbert
did
not
agree
.
In
fact
,
young
Griffiths
would
have
preferred
,
had
it
been
possible
,
so
to
charge
young
Cranston
with
looseness
,
only
thus
far
the
latter
had
managed
to
keep
himself
well
within
the
bounds
of
sobriety
.
And
the
Cranston
Wickwire
Company
was
plainly
forging
ahead
as
one
of
the
leading
industries
of
Lycurgus
.
"
Well
,
"
he
added
,
after
a
moment
,
"
they
're
spreading
out
faster
than
I
would
if
I
had
their
business
.
They
're
not
the
richest
people
in
the
world
,
either
"
Just
the
same
he
was
thinking
that
,
unlike
himself
and
his
parents
,
the
Cranstons
were
really
more
daring
if
not
socially
more
avid
of
life
.
He
envied
them
.
"
And
what
's
more
,
"
added
Bella
interestedly
,
"
the
Finchleys
are
to
have
a
dance
floor
over
the
boathouse
.
And
Sondra
says
that
Stuart
was
hoping
that
you
would
come
up
there
and
spend
a
lot
of
time
this
summer
.
"
"
Oh
,
did
he
?
"
replied
Gilbert
,
a
little
enviously
and
sarcastically
.
"
You
mean
he
said
he
was
hoping
you
would
come
up
and
spend
a
lot
of
time
.
I
'll
be
working
this
summer
.
"
"
He
did
n't
say
anything
of
the
kind
,
smarty
.
Besides
it
would
n't
hurt
us
any
if
we
did
go
up
there
.
There
's
nothing
much
out
at
Greenwood
any
more
that
I
can
see
.
A
lot
of
old
hen
parties
.
"
"
Is
that
so
?
Mother
would
like
to
hear
that
.
"
"
And
you
'll
tell
her
,
of
course
"
