But Grace is my dear little helper.

that she was talented too.
Andy and A rite were always study

do for their mothers. II there was
any hammering or saving to be done.
Grace had to get busy: as for dish

Betty simply scorned such low-hrow
tasks But Grace often thought they
didn't know what they were missing.

when they worked together 1t was a

How can I ever, ever make up with
Aunt Sarah now?" For Aunt Sarah
was a very rich. and supposedly cross,
maiden aunt of Grace's mothers. She
had never visited the family before
having lived in China for years Grace
lust felt terrible to think how rude
she'd been.
She was sitting on the edge OF her
little bed thinking, when the door
knob softly turned and Mother peeped
in. Mothers jolly face was all red
! as II she'd been laughing hard. or
else crying. She beckoned to Grace
mysteriously. Grace hurriedly put on
| her old shoes and followed her down
stairs and into the living room, where
all the family and guests were sitting
| As they came in, the door at the
I other side of the room opened anu
| Aunt Sarah came in with her hair
down and a beautiful white shawl
wrapped around her. She looked like
a fairy godmother!
IT am looking for a foot that will
fit this shoe!" she cried, holding up
"Oh dear!" exclaimed Grace. TITS
nine!"
"Ah, Cinderella" cried Aunt Sarah.
LET US try it on"
| Everybody looked curious as the
shoe was tried on. 1t fit, of course.
Grace blushed because she wasn't used
to being noticed.
We'll. well. upon my word!" cried
the fairy godmother. The slipper
fits. That settles everything. Gin
derella is not Cinderella but a
Princess! Now, Princesses should
travel and see the world. I am leav-
ing tomorrow for Europe. Asia and
Africa. We shall see wonderful
things, wonderful things. Never mind
about packing. We shall get you new
clothes"
"Bu- but Mother" began Grace
Who'd help Mother?"
You'll he back in the fall" said
Aunt Sarah.
Betty hurriedly came forward,
"Gracie," she whispered, its q
wonderful chance! You go on. II
take care of Mother. so will Dot"
"Of course, we Will" Andy ex.
claimed indignantly. You neye,
asked US to do anything. We're Graz,

So then it was decided that Grace
should accept her aunt's kind offe,
and she ran over to tell Marion. Bur
