Which two themes are found in this excerpt from "bernice bobs her hair" by f. scott fitzgerald? but perhaps the most significant symbol of her success was the gray car of the hypercritical warren mcintyre, parked daily in front of the harvey house. at first the parlor-maid was distinctly startled when he asked for bernice instead of marjorie; after a week of it she told the cook that miss bernice had gotta hold a miss marjorie's best fella. marjorie on being twitted only laughed. she said she was mighty glad that warren had at last found some one who appreciated him. so the younger set laughed, too, and guessed that marjorie didn't care and let it go at that. one afternoon when there were only three days left of her visit bernice was waiting in the hall for warren, with whom she was going to a bridge party. she was in rather a blissful mood, and when marjorie—also bound for the party—appeared beside her and began casually to adjust her hat in the mirror, bernice was utterly unprepared for anything in the nature of a clash. marjorie did her work very coldly and succinctly in three sentences. "you may as well get warren out of your head," she said coldly. "what? " bernice was utterly astounded. "you may as well stop making a fool of yourself over warren mcintyre. he doesn't care a snap of his fingers about you." youth is temporary and life must be lived to the fullest. feminine identity is based on social restrictions. pride can ruin a relationship. love can make people cruel. jealousy makes people petty and cruel.
