mfwiuSy glad to meet you, Miss Miss " he began.
"Miss Heffeldinger," prompted his friend, raising the voice slightly.
"I'm awfully sorry to be such a nuisance," said the deaf man, but,
the voung lady can see for herself, I'm rather hard of hearing.
Would you mind repeating the name just once more?" And he cuppec"
