"I heard you couldn't have any company except one afternoon a week," resumed Miss Mullaly, after the laughing had ceased, "not anybody at all." "Sure!" returned Miss Crilly. "Wednesday afternoon, from three to five, is the only time you can entertain your best feller." "Why, Polly Dudley was here Thursday morning!" "Now you've got me!" admitted Miss Crilly.

As Polly had said, the president of the June Holiday Home had wished to talk with her about something that of itself was as surprising as it was mysterious. Juanita Sterling was making her bed when the soft tap came. "What shall I do?" Miss Crilly whispered tragically, slipping inside and shutting the door without a sound. Her eyes were big and frightened.
Polly was off in a whirl, and for the next half-hour bells rang, wires snapped and buzzed, feet flew, and tongues were busy. Then Polly returned to say that they could have three cars which would seat fourteen besides the drivers. Miss Crilly was there and heard the news with delight. "I'll run round and ask 'em! Shall I?" "Yes, please," answered Polly.

Miss Sterling, I couldn't keep from hearing what you told Miss Crilly last night." "I supposed you would; in fact, I meant you should hear." "Well, I am so glad! You don't know how glad! Only I can't bear the thought of losing you." "Don't begin to worry yet! I shall not go at present." "Well, I wish you all possible joy, and I feel sure you'll have it with such a good man.
Over and over sounded the sweet, haunting melody, until not a few of those unfamiliar with the methods of the patient teacher and his singular little pupil, wondered, with Miss Crilly, "what in the world was up." Then, just as almost everybody's nerves were growing tense, Caruso took up the air and carried it on bewitchingly to its close. "How can he do it!" "Wasn't that perfectly beautiful!"
"Wouldn't I rave if they belonged to yours truly! How can you folks take them so coolly?" Juanita Sterling laughed. "I had my time when they first came!" "You say it all, so we don't need to," laughed Mrs. Albright. "They are beauties, that's a fact!" Miss Crilly sat down, her eyes still on the flowers. "I don't see a card anywhere," she nodded.
