My God! what am I going to do?
gpt
What is the matter?
human
Are they hard to make?
gpt
No, but they've got to be done day after to-morrow.
human
How many?
gpt
Sixteen.

If I could get a couple of women to help, I might manage it for you.
gpt
Jane Judd, do you mean it? Get somebody; pay 'em anything; but get 'em here and let's begin.
human
Have you got the stuff?
gpt
No, but I'll telephone for it and get it here special.
human
Go ahead. Don't forget thread and needles.
gpt
Look here, Jane; Jerry Paxton is absorbing entirely too much of your time. I'm wearing stockings with holes in them.
human
I was just coming to tell you that something has gone wrong with some costumes, and I've offered to get somebody to help me, and make them for him.
gpt
Upon my word, is there anything else you can do for the pampered darling? Jinny Chatfield and I could help you.
human
Thanks.
gpt
Bobs, Jinny, I can't take your time like this, you old dears.
human
Don't blather, Jerry; explain the design,
gpt
Heavens! I don't know how to cut that,
human
No more do I,
gpt
Let me look at it,
human
Does this hang straight, neck to hem?
gpt
I think I can cut it; then I'll pin it on you, Miss Roberts, and if it's right we'll cut them all at once.
human
Heaven be praised for Jane,
