• Henry Van Cleve, Age 9 : Hello Mary.

  Mary, Age 9 : Don't speak to me, Henry Van Cleve. You're a bad boy and my mother says I shouldn't talk to bad boys.

  Henry Van Cleve, Age 9 : I betcha you don't know what I've got in this box.

  Mary, Age 9 : And I'm not interested, Henry Van Cleve.

  Henry Van Cleve, Age 9 : Then I won't tell ya it's a beetle.

  Mary, Age 9 : A beetle!

  Henry Van Cleve, Age 9 : D'ya like it?

  Mary, Age 9 : Oh, who doesn't like beetles!

  Henry Van Cleve, Age 9 : It's yours.

  Mary, Age 9 : Thank you! Oh, thank you, Henry. I wonder if I should take it?

  Henry Van Cleve, Age 9 : Well, if you don't want it.

  Mary, Age 9 : Oh, I don't mean it that way, I was just wondering...

  Henry Van Cleve, Age 9 : Don't worry, I've got another one.

  Mary, Age 9 : Another beetle?

  Henry Van Cleve, Age 9 : Uh-huh.

  Mary, Age 9 : Oh, it's beautiful. It looks rather lonely, though. You know what I think, I think it wants to be together with mine.

  Henry Van Cleve, Age 9 : You mean you want this one, too?

  Mary, Age 9 : Henry Van Cleve, do you think I'm the kind of girl who would take a boy's last beetle?
