Unladylikely

Mother looked as if she onged to be a man for just one minute while she expressed herself strongly and unladylikely.

In the first place the headgear did not fuly^([sic]) conceal the stubbly chins of the women, and they had a general tread that was not stately enough to bespeak them as “nice girls,” so there was no acceptance of the challenge, but my, O me, they did have a lot of fun out of it before it was over, for a nine of men was made up, and they went after the skirts quite unladylikely.

“Omigosh,” I gasped, unladylikely.

Why, when I got your letter, I just danced, very unladylikely, all over the room!

“I can’t be a sponsor anymore.” she wept unladylikely.

The only time that she forgets she went to the Spence school is when Mr. Gilhooley affectionately chokes her (and a good thing too) and then she dies so gorgeously and so unladylikely that the audience cheers right up and thinks maybe she got what she wanted.

The two of them began to laugh; they did this uproariously, unladylikely;

AND what is Saturday? Why, Valentine’s Day, of course. The day when you wear your heart on your sleeve boldly and unladylikely (almost, that is).
