Because electricity travels faster than sound waves.” That’s every good,” Miss Gogers answered; but then one of the girls raised her hand, and Miss Gogers said.” Yes, Kate.” “I disagree,” Kate said.” Your brother would hear you earlier because when it's 11 o'clock here, it's only 8 o'clock in Los Angeles.” 36.
