The effect towered like a real English derby and Judith danced in delight. "I'll try that with my tarn," she declared. "One's hair is always the surest give-away. Here are the masks--hanging neatly on the nail of last year's tenants. I call that thoughtful." Mysterious calls and whistles were now creeping in under doorways and through transoms.
