Yes. what you say Is very true;

little girl ought to be able to move

that her child had such confidence In

all that I can" she said earne stly.

helpfulness in such matters. He, too,

1t gathered unto itself. Before the
week was ended Milly had a dozen
women, and twice that many girls
of Ler own age. enlisted as her help

fully organized little band made it her
business to call upon several friends.
inviting them - cooperate in the fair.
