School having been closed a week for repairs Miss Gordon had brought Betty to the shining city of her childish dreams. Mrs. Bennett spoke frequently of the change in Billy. He was growing more thoughtful, observant. He remembered small duties, noticed if mother or sister looked tired or ill, and volunteered help where formerly he would not have known help was needed.
