She wore a boy's suit, with a shorts' skirt over her knicker-boek- ers, and, since she was slim, the gar- ments added to her appearance of immaturity. Tier face was oval in outline, and it was of a perfectly uniform olive tint; her eyes were large end black and velvety, their lashes were long, their lids were faintly smudged with a shadowy under.coloring that magnified their size and intensified their brilliance.
