Again the professor of mathematics and architectural drawing put the key-bugle to his lips and sent the blast echoing over the white waste: Ta-ra! ta-ra! ta-ra-ra-ra! ta-rat! The road from Lakeview Hall was winding, and only a short stretch of it could be seen from the brow of Pendragon Hill. But the roof and chimneys of the great castle-like Hall were visible above the tree-tops.
"I suppose I'm foolish," she confessed to Aunt Kate the next morning when she told her about it. "But I loved Beulah so much when I was little that I can't forget her now. If I go to Lakeview Hall I'm going to take her with me. I don't care what the other girls say!" "You are faithful in your likes, child," said Aunt Kate nodding. "'Tis a good trait.
"It certainly is a fact," grinned Walter impudently, "that the curriculum of Lakeview Hall makes its pupils wondrous sharp. Hullo! here comes Rhoda towing a very nice looking lady, I must admit." In fact, at first sight the three other girls fell in love with Mrs. Janeway. She was a childless and wealthy widow, who, as she asserted, "just doted on girls." She met them all warmly.
Of course, during that week at home, the three girls from Lakeview Hall did not sit down and fold their hands. No, indeed! Bess Harley gave a big party at her house; and there were automobile rides, and boating parties, and a picnic. It was a very busy time. "We scarcely know whether we have had you with us or not, Nan dear," said her mother.
A query or two about Rose Ranch, something about the Navaho blanket Nan and her chum had bought for their couch before she knew it the girl from the West was eagerly describing her home, and telling more in ten minutes about her life before she had come to Lakeview Hall than she had related to anybody in all the weeks she had been here. "Rose Ranch must be a great place," sighed Bess longingly.
Grace will tell you that Linda is the very meanest girl at Lakeview Hall." "Oh! I couldn't say that, Bess," gasped timid Grace. "She is my guest for the evening!" "Well, I'll say it for you," burst out her brother. "Somebody should tell the truth about her." "So they should," chimed in Bess. "She's a mean, spiteful thing!" "Stop! stop, all of you!" commanded the governess, sternly.
Lauchie McKitterick advertised him at every station along the line, and when the doctor wanted to go anywhere on the train Davy Munn needed only to brandish his mother's sunbonnet from the window of the stable loft, and the Lakeview and Simcoe express stopped just below his back gate. He was soon so busy that Granny Long had to give up her afternoon nap to keep track of his swift movements.
He had brought a bundle from Lakeview for the blacksmith's wife with his accustomed grumblings, and had intended to fling it over the gate, as he passed, in the hope that it contained something breakable. But now he recognised in it an instrument in the hand of Providence to give him the long-wished-for speech with the minister.
"I really don't think that Rhoda worries about what she doesn't have," Nan put in. "Perhaps she doesn't even see that she lacks anything that we have." "Well, she never will go in for athletics," Bess declared. "Athletics!" burst out Walter. "Why, there isn't another girl at Lakeview Hall who could do what she did just now." They were all agreed on that point. Even Dr.
He started the motor for Miss Nestor, having stopped it after his first test, and then, with the DOT, which was the name of the small boat Miss Nestor was in, following the larger ARROW, the run back to the hotel was made. The young lady turned off near the Lakeview dock to go to the cottage where she was stopping and the lads tied up at the hotel boathouse.
