row on the grass, smiling with sat

Frank, who was squeezing lem-

.'And If you girls want any you'll

portantly; "we're going to buy a
whole lot of Fourth O. July things
with the money, SO what do you
think of that?"
Fat little Billy chimed in, pulling
out his sturdy chest; I'm helping,
too. We're going to sell lots ana

"Welll" Mary Elizabeth tossed
her black curls "you don't deserve
to have us buy any, cause you
