"As for my half of Peter Pan, I shall will that to Arthur to keep until " "Until you come back, of course," interrupted Arthur. "Your father may have you for a while, and then you must come back to Glenloch, and this time for a whole year." "Hear, hear," came in eager chorus from the others, and the party broke up happily after all.
"Here's a grand surprise, and you two can be in the secret," she said as she handed the note to Uncle Jerry. "Isn't it fine to think that the Glenloch good times haven't come to an end?" she continued. "Do you remember the story of the 'Princess and the Goblins, and how the little Princess always felt safe so long as she held one end of her fairy grandmother's thread?
But isn't that a nice name she's given you, Aunt Jerry? I like that and think I shall use it." The next package was a small book from Marie, filled with little water-color sketches of Glenloch. Ruth and Mrs. Jerry took such a long time over it that Uncle Jerry got quite impatient, and threatened to draw the next one himself if Ruth didn't hurry.
Well, I feel as if I am taking with me the ends of any number of threads; one from each of the girls, and a very important one from Aunt Mary, and a great many others, too. I'm going to keep tight hold of them all, and some day they will pull me back to Glenloch, I'm sure."
"Pretty nearly four weeks ago that Uncle Henry sent the letters," replied Ruth. "You can't make me believe the boys could get up anything like this," she added, displaying the card. "You'll have to go down right off," said Dorothy, quite convinced. "You mustn't keep him waiting." "Oh, why not one of you?" groaned Ruth. "He won't know the difference, and you've lived in Glenloch longer." "Goosey.
Ruth had an interested audience as she unrolled some of the packages and peeped into others to see what they contained, and could he have heard the enthusiastic comments Uncle Jerry would have felt still more sure of his place in the hearts of his Glenloch friends. "It's wasting time to look at them now," said Ruth with a sigh. "We must arrange a table and put them on it this afternoon."
It occurred to me that I might kill two birds, etc., by contributing to the good cause at Glenloch and helping this poor fellow at the same time. I thought you might make a little something by selling them for any price you can get. "I shall probably get there almost as soon as the box, so won't stop to write more. "Yours with love, Uncle Jerry."
Number two proved to be a letter from Charlotte, and as Ruth opened it a dainty handkerchief trimmed with narrow lace insertion and bordered with pink wash ribbon dropped into her lap. I thought I couldn't show my devotion to you more than by poking a needle in and out. "Glenloch won't seem the same without you, and I can't bear to think you've really gone.
"Yes, really engaged. Uncle Jerry wanted to settle it when he first found her here in Glenloch, but she made him wait until he came the second time," answered Ruth shaking her hair to the breeze which curled it into tendrils. "I've been simply bursting to tell you ever since the entertainment, but I had to wait until Miss Burton said I might." "I think it's funny you didn't guess.
To her joy she was to be allowed to see what she could do in the class with Betty and Charlotte, and she was determined to succeed, though she knew it meant harder work than she had ever done in her life. The Glenloch Academy was the pride of Glenloch and the envy of the surrounding towns.
