and enjoys it as heartily as any

the latter called "a little fib."
'A fib is the same thing as a
story, explained Ellen, "and a
story is the same thing as a lie."
"No," argued Lucy, "it's not."
'Tes, it is," - insisted Ellen,
"because my father said so, and
my father is a college professor,
and he knows everything."
"I don't care if he is a profes
sor," said Lucy. "My father is
a real estate agent, and he knows
a lot more about lying than vour
