"That might be pleasant," returned Diana.
Her father smiled and patted her. "You are not always going to be a tired schoolgirl. Home may hold out more attractions next summer than you think."
"You don't know the rocks and the walks here yet, Daddy," said Diana wistfully.
"How many walks shall I have to take before you are ready to go back with me?"
"Of course we're going back with Daddy," said Mrs. Wilbur warningly.
"You like the yacht, don't you, Diana?" he asked.
"Indeed, I do. It was only that you were going to have such gay people this summer, and I couldn't be gay."
"I understand, dear. I've ditched the gay people now, and we will have a family party only, going back."
"That will be delightful," replied Diana.
