"Won't it be a great deal of work?" Mrs. Clyde inquired.
"Heaps. But these greasers never have enough to do,—we'll make them work for once," Mr. Ashe replied.
"What shall we wear?" Of course it was Kitty who asked.
"Oh, girls, I've the loveliest plan,—you don't mind, do you, Grandmother, if I get out my Spanish costume again?"
Grandmother smiled at a sudden recollection. "No, dear. I think it would fit this occasion admirably."
"But we haven't Spanish costumes!" said Debby and Amanda in a breath.
"Get them!" Blue Bonnet exclaimed. "Any old-fashioned, bright-colored gown will do to begin with, and a lace scarf for mantilla—"
"But where are we to get the gowns,—they don't grow on bushes," demanded Kitty.
"There is such a thing as a post, Kitty, and an express company. And you know your attics at home are full of lovely old things."
"Then we'll have to send right away to get them here in time."
