darling.

Look at me.

That's better.

Now smile.

Let's be grown up, huh?

Just because I have social obligations, it

doesn't mean that I don't love you, does it?

Mmm. Well. Look, sweet. I'll tell

you what we'll do. You take Letty.

Letty?

Now, wait.

And the minute you get there, you can

ditch her, and I'!I ditch Rodney.

And it'll be just

as if we'd gone together.

I a sailor's bride would be

yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum

Oh, I a sailor's bride

would be;

A yo-ho-ho

and a bottle of rum

I a sailor's bride would be

yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum

I a sailor's bride would be

a yo-ho-ho and-

Oh, Letty?

- Hiya, cookie!

- Hello, Walter.

I'm taking you to the picnic.

Me? You are taking me?

I- I-I mean, are you?

Better get dressed,

and I'll be back later.

All right.

Uh-

Ohhh!

Oh. I'm not nervous.

Hey,Jim. Fix my lashes for me, will you?

I got the shakes.

Did he ask you?

Uh-huh.

That gets it.

No, I'll get some water.

It's all right.

Here, just sit

right down here.

I'll hang it three layers thick. Plenty

of charm. Don't get it in my eye.

It's all right. Haven't

missed an eye for years.

Boy, that's marvelous. With those

lashes, you could clean the windows.

If you get a chance, just

wiggle at him, like this.

Give him the roll.

I'll fan him with them.

That's got it!

Thanks Jim. Okay.

Hey, Letty. Give me a dime,

and I'll tell you something.

Oh, I got troubles;

I don't have to buy them.

But it's about Uncle Walter.

About Walter?

Okay.

Nancy said to Uncle Walter,

You take Letty to the picnic...

and ditch her, and I'll

ditch Rodney. And then-

- Go away. - 'just as

if they went together

Whats the matter?

Will you please go away?

Well, all right.

But you still owe me my dime.

Oh! Uh"

Nancy snitched your blue dress,

and she's gonna wear it too.

Hello, Rodney.

Hello, Nancy!

My, you look grand.

Do you like it?

Uh-huh!

Letty, Letty!

Come on. Walter's yelling for you.

He's downstairs.

I'm not going.

That's fine, only hurry.

What!

I'm not going.

Great Caesar's ghost!

Why?

Because.

Because.

She's not going.

Ha-ha.

Ten years of scheming kicked in the pants.

Our agreement, a mere nothing.

Oh, Letty. Won't you

please open the door?

No. A w, come on. Remember

your oath, darling.7

Letty. Letty?

Letty. Letty!

Let me in, or I'll drag you

through the keyhole!

Open the door!

No.

Aw, you- Aww.

Oh! Walter. Why aren't you dancing?

Ha-ha.

Whats the matter?

Got on a stiff shirt?

Oh, Walter's all right. Hes just got

funny ideas. Old-fashioned ones.

What goes on here

In my heart

All this bumpin' and thumpin'

and jumpin'

When I see you

What goes on here

When we part

It keeps bumpin' and thumpin'

Doris Anderson

Doris Hilda Anderson, (November 10, 1921 – March 2, 2007) was a Canadian author, journalist and women's rights activist.
