Holiday Page #3

one morning to the rink...

...when whom should I see,

but this man coming along carrying his skis.

Well, fancy that.

A downright romance. Go on, dear.

He had a queer look on his face.

I can believe that.

His eyes must have been burning.

No. As a matter of fact,

the trouble was with his nose.

So I stopped him and said:

"Pardon me. I don't think you realize it,

but your nose is frozen."

He said, "Thanks.

Can you personally do something about it?"

- Fresh.

- I thought so, too.

She was fresh to mention it.

It looked to me like a pickup.

I know a good thing when I see it.

Just a minute.

Does Father know about these goings-on?

I'm off to church to tell him now.

This modern generation.

Well, young man, I hope you realize

what you're getting yourself in for.

I didn't know I was marrying

into a house with an elevator.

It isn't only the elevator.

The place is haunted.

You mean ghosts?

Frightful ghosts all wearing stuffed shirts

and mink-lined ties.

Any skeletons in the closet?

- Julia hasn't told you about Grandfather?

- No.

- He stole a railroad from the stockholders.

- That's not true.

And of course you've heard about me.

I'm the black sheep.

That's a goat.

- Don't pay attention to her.

- The engagement's off.

I won't marry into any family

with a black sheep.

- I think I like this man.

- Hello.

You'll see him at lunch.

'Bye, darling, we've got to fly.

See you at lunch, Sis.

Placid was lovely, Father.

I met a young man up there.

He's coming to lunch today.

His name is Case. Johnny Case.

- I'm going to marry him, Father.

- What?

Did I understand you to say...

And who may Johnny Chase be?

- Case, Father, not Chase.

- Well, then, Case.

Father.

Will you please tell me...

Marry? Did you actually say that?

Charming service.

- A lovely service.

- Thank you.

- We shall have to talk at once, Julia.

- Yes.

You haven't as yet told me

one intelligent fact about this...

Johnny? He's a man with a definite future.

He's with Sloan and Hobson.

- Indeed? I know Sam Hobson.

- You do?

Hello, Julia.

Hello, Marjorie. You look well.

- A mild, lovely Sunday, Edward.

- Quite.

- Did you have a little accident, Ned?

- So they say.

I don't seem to have been there

when it happened.

- Good morning.

- Good morning.

Good morning.

Kindly put your hat on, Ned.

I believe I see Mr. Hobson now.

- Run along home.

- Yes, Father.

Take your time, Father.

The front door this time.

Miss Julia has not returned

from church yet, sir.

I'll walk around the block.

- You're expected in the playroom, sir.

- Playroom?

Miss Linda asked that you be sent up

the moment you arrived, sir.

Miss Linda.
