'Oh dear, I do wish some one would invent something new for girls!' she exclaimed, although there was no one in the room to hear her. 'It seems to me that all girls do nowadays is to imitate boys. We play their games, read their old books and even do their work, when all the time girls are really wanting girl things. I agree with King Solomon: ’The thing that hath been, it is that which, shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done; and there is no new thing under the sun.’ At least not for girls!' Then with a laugh at her own pessimism, Betty, like Hamlet, having found relief in soliloquy, jumped up from her chair and crossing her room pressed the electric button near the fireplace until the noise of its ringing reverberated through the big, quiet house.
