"I must go and see," she said. "I hope Carita isn't in trouble."
"Come back again," the girls called after her. "We've something to discuss later."
Mary's room was in a state of confusion. In a corner Carita sat, weeping softly.
"Mary's going home," she said, and a sob shook her. "She says she's going to-night. Oh, I'll miss her so, Blue Bonnet."
"Going home?"
Blue Bonnet turned to Mary.
"Well, I should say I am," Mary announced, dragging out one garment after another from her closet. "I wouldn't stay in this school another day for anybody. Fraulein has acted perfectly outrageously. I think she's crazy!"
Blue Bonnet stared in amazement.
"What's she done, Mary?"
"Done! Well, she's done enough to drive me out of this school—that's all!"
