As Usual.

As nothing is quite as hard on youth as another youth just a few years older, Tommy resented very severely Jean’s foibles at the table when there was company. "Mother, please don’t let Jean come to the table tonight,” he begged; “she always acts like we never have ice cream ’cept when there’s company.” “Honest I won’t,” begged Jean, so convincingly that she was allowed to come. However, when the time for dessert came and her favorite strawberry ice cream appeared, Jean’s emotional enthusiasm had to find some outlet. “Oh,” she crowed, dapping her hands ecstatically; then, true to her promises, she continued, “We have it every night. We have It every night.”
