“We’ll have to go and tell Ma,” said Maria. Friday came; and May Nell delighted her father with her part in the exercises. Billy was very proud of her as she stood on the platform, lovely in her white frock and her fair, curling hair, reciting her “piece.” “It was shore a wonder, with the band playin’ an’ all. I never heard sich moosic, not sence the circus.” “Now Mis’ Stephens, call the boys,” requested Mrs. Wopp who was the busiest of the group..
