how many would be here, how the
tables would be arranged, and what
games they should play

had been her own mother, and now
1T almost makes me sick. | don't

thing was wrong the minute l saw her
face at noon. She tried to speak as

asked what the matter was, she dropped
into chair and began to cry as II
her heart would break.

how could she? My one party-and

heart-broken; but that's her way NO

Finally, learned that Maud Bacon
had told her on the way to school that
all the girls had received printed in
vitations to party at Gleason's to-
night. Audrey couldn't believe 1t until
she got to school and found that no one
seemed to notice her at all. Gladys
Gleason was the centre Of attraction to-
day, telling in quite audible confidence,
group after group Of girls, the lumber
Of cakes ordered. the gallons OF zee
cream making and the grand prepara-
tons in progress; but not a word did
she say to poor Audrey about Vt.
"Gladys has forgotten the rainy
nights that it used to be convenient to
stay with Cousin Audrey before her
father was elected and they moved
to town; and the many favors that
Audrey has done her. never minding
her sights and her overbearing ways.
/ would not have believed her capable
Of such an insult.
"And children are much like their
elders Not half a dozen will be at
Audrey's party tonight, nor will half
dozen mothers tell their girls to ac-
