So sincere was her interest that Jerry felt as though she was suddenly surrounded by a wealth of friendship. Patricia seemed to know everyone else they were nearly all Girl Scouts in her troop; she introduced Jerry to so many girls that poor Jerry could not remember a single name. Ginny Cox, spying Jerry from across the room, bolted to her. "You're going to sign up for basketball, aren't you?
And I can fix a hat like the dreadful châpeau of hers that came out of the ark. And glasses, too " Isobel and Dorrie laughed delightedly. "How can you get them out here?" "Oh, I'll find a way!" Ginny always could! "Do you think that nose is pug enough?" She deftly packed it down on each side with a finger, then gave it a quick, upward touch. "Isn't that better?"
If we choose to surround objects with a black line, the world will see the black line, and there will be a black line; and if we paint grass red and cows blue, it'll see them red and blue, and, by Heaven, they will be red and blue." "To hell with art," murmured Flanagan. "I want to get ginny." Lawson took no notice of the interruption.
Ginny is a good sort, isn't she?" The Ravens, now enjoying a pleasant distinction among the Lincoln students because of Jerry's suffering, the truth of which had become known after a few weeks to nearly everyone in the school, except, of course, the faculty, decided to admit more members to their circle. This necessitated an elaborate ceremony of initiation, and an especially elaborate spread.
"I'm won'erin' what my mother'll be deein'," answered Nicie: "she's up there." "Up there!" exclaimed Ginny, and, turning, stared at the mountain too, expecting to perceive Nicie's mother somewhere upon the face of it. "Na, na, missie! ye canna see her," said the girl; "she's no in sicht. She's ower ayont there. "How I should like to see your father and mother, Nicie!" exclaimed Ginevra.
If I knew who had given the prize I'd go straight to him," exclaimed Ginny bravely. Uncle Johnny straightened his immaculately gray-trousered legs and laid his straw hat down on the grass. "If that'll help things any I'm he," he explained with a little embarrassment. "You? You? Really Uncle Johnny?" came in an excited chorus. "Yes, me," with a fine scorn for grammar.
"Come on, fellows," he cried to the other boys, "let's give a yell for old Peter Westley." And the yell was given with a will! "L-I-N-C-O-L-N! L-I-N-C-O-L-N! Lincoln! Lincoln! Rah! Rah! Rah! Peter Westley! Pe-ter! West-ley!" Jerry tingled to her finger-tips. Gyp had yelled with the others, so had Ginny Cox, who had come back into the room. What fun it was all going to be.
Caton's that both girls laughed. "He's dead right," answered Ginny, with her characteristic bluntness. "I just wanted to amuse the others and make them think I was awfully clever and that was plain outright conceit and selfishness. I guess that's the way I do most things. Well, I've learned a lesson. And there isn't anything I wouldn't do for you, Jerry Travis.
Eager to know about him, Ginevra gathered all that Janet could tell of his story, and in return told the little she had seen of it, which was the one dreadful point. "Is he a good boy, Mistress Grant?" she asked. "The best boy ever I kenned better nor my ain Donal, an' he was the best afore him," answered Janet. Ginny gave a little sigh, and wished she were good.
At one moment Ginevra would draw herself up bridle her grandmother would have called it with involuntary recoil from doubtful approach; the next, Ginny would burst out in a merry laugh at something in which only a child could have perceived the mirth-causing element; then again the woman would seem suddenly to re-enter and rebuke the child, for the sparkle would fade from her eyes, and she would look solemn, and even a little sad.
