Libbie had the advantage of being the only one of the girls who had been to New York. "This has lots more ground around it," she pronounced critically. "Course in a city like New York, they need the land for other buildings. But you just ought to see the Pennsylvania Station there!" "All right, take your word for it," said Bobby. "Where do we go to send a telegram, Momsie?" Mrs. Littell smiled.
I want to be a player and play in the theater. That is what I am going to do. I am not going to be treated like a baby by my father. I am too old." "I did not mean to treat him like a baby," said Mr. Ward. "But our children must be made to obey in things that are right." "That is true," agreed Mrs. Brown. "We mind sometimes," said Bunny. "Don't we, Momsie?" "Yes, once in a while.
There was room for plenty of food to be carried, and even a small ice-box that could be filled with ice whenever they stopped in a city. "Well," said Mr. Brown, after he had told Bunny, Sue and their mother about his plan, "do you think you'll like it?" "I'll just love it!" cried Sue. "So will I," said Bunny. "Let's hug and kiss daddy and momsie!" "No, I'll have to beg off!" cried Mr. Brown.

So come in and sit down, as that's easier than turning a dress." "Oh, let me turn my knickerbockers outside in!" cried Bunny. "That will be as good as you or Sue, Momsie, turning your dresses.
Was I right, momsie?" "My baby! It's like I can't realize it. So young!" "He took the measure of my finger, mamma, with a piece of string. A diamond, he says, not too flashy, but neat." "We have 'em, and we suffer for 'em, and we lose 'em." "He's going to trade in the flivver for a chummy roadster, and " "Oh, darling, it's like I can't bear it!"
"Oh, Momsie!" exclaimed Sue. They were both out of breath. "Well, what's the matter now?" asked Mrs. Brown. "Why aren't you in bed?" "We saw something anyhow Sue did," explained Bunny. "But first Bunny saw Splash and Dix playing on the lawn in the moonlight," said Sue, breathing fast. "And then Sue saw Fred coming home in by the back way," added Bunny, his eyes big with wonder.
