Wayne Forrest looked at the tray startled, and arose as though he had inadvertently committed a terrible breach of etiquette. "It's time we beat it," he said in an undertone to Harold, whose end of the couch was near his chair.

It required Miss Gracen's gentle, persuasive hand on Wayne's arm, and her earnest insistence, to make him sit down again and partake of the good things.
