nine o'clock
That girl is a featherweight . '' `` She looks nice , '' said Midget . `` I 'd like to know her . '' And then , as it was nearing nine o'clock , they left the dancing pavilion , and made their way back to their hotel . Marjorie kept close to her parents , for the crowd seemed to grow denser all the time , and if she lost sight of her people , she feared she 'd be swept away from them forever . They were staying at Madden Hall , and as they reached it , there , too , music was being played , and some people were dancing in the big ballroom . But there were no children about , so Midget trotted off to bed cheerfully , with lots of pleasant anticipations for the morrow .
