FERRY met Peg at the foot OF the
path when he saw all the lights
q disappear in the house.
They walked across the lawns
and meadows on that beautiful July
night with the moon shining down on
them
Once at the greatsha his mother put
the gauche little Peg at her ease, In
troduced her to the most charming Of
partners and saw that verythiRg WIS.,
done to minister to her enjoyment
It was wonderful nigllt for Peg
She danced every dance, she had this
supper one with Jerry. she laughed and
sang and romped and was the center
of all the attention. What might have
appeared boldness In another with Peg
was just her innocent. WfIlfui, child
like nature. She made a wonderful
Impression that night and became g
general fayoEite. She wanted it to 60 on
and on ana never to stop. When tie
last waltz was played and eucored and
the ball was really ended Peg felt
pang Of regret such as she had not felt
for a long. long time
aOh. I am 50 happy, 50 happyg ehs
cried as Jerry led her back to her seat
at the conclusion OF tie last dance,
