 There were lots of others, and il would be loads of fun to write them all down, for l hung around till dark to hear them, for the benefit of posteri1 ty if nothing else It would be eX1 ceedingly interesting to have all of my little nieces and nephews read of the fortune, of their funny old maid aunt but I shant give them a chance, but J shall keep my fortune in my heart and see.
 And then there are others that wouldn't tell for worlds Bunkie says you mustn't tell everything you know even if it is just a little bit, and guess he knows, but he wasn't talking about me. If I write much more about that party, and all of the things that happened, I shall just change the name of my diary and make it One Thurs day Afternoon" but I won't, I will be good.

I reallj love playing and it is so seldom that vol get to play these days. Why. Aunt Polld says that Mrs. Badhams big party al the club last week was the first that hal been given here for years, and she wal blissfully happy over the idea of beinI able to indulge in her two hobbies at thl same tinle-bridge and gossip. Now shl wouldn't like it very much if she werl ever to see this diary book, but then shI just gossips about things and events an{ never about people, for she likes peopl immensely.
 Mrs. Earle made us feel like sprin blossoms, too, for she sat us down righl In bed of daffodils and greenery, anl l though how queer it would be if I werl to wake up and find that were daffol oil, too. l think I had rather be a bud terf1y for even though their lives arI short they have wonderful times fittinI about and seeing the world, while littll yellow daffodil just sits in the sun anI smiles.
