A LIVELY WEEK
Dorothy woke very early the next morning, and turned to look at Nancy, to find that Nancy was looking straight at her. They both laughed.
"I was wondering if you were awake," Nancy said.
"I turned to look at you, Nancy, to see if your eyes were open," Dorothy said. "I was going to ask you if you knew that Patricia and Arabella were spending the week at Glenmore."
"I knew it, because when I told Patricia that we were to spend the week at Vera's home, she looked, for just a second, as if she were provoked because she had not been invited, too. Then she hurried to say that she'd rather stay at Glenmore. That Arabella was to stay, too, and that she thought they would have a finer time than we."
"I wonder how they amused themselves," Dorothy said. "Glenmore would be so quiet with all the girls away."
"And Miss Fenler would have all the time to watch them, with none of the other pupils to care for," responded Nancy.
"Dorothy, Nancy! Come down so I can tell you something!" called Vera.
They heard Mrs. Vane say gently:
"Don't hurry them, Vera."
