This sounded much better to Linda, and she promised to write within the nest week, if her father agreed.
It was lots of fun riding back to Spring City in her autogiro the following day, although she flew alone, for Louise wanted to return with Ted. Without a mishap of any kind she brought the "Ladybug" down on the field behind her house.
When she entered her home, she found that her father had arrived during her absence. He was waiting for her in the library.
"Daddy!" she cried, joyfully, for Mr. Carlton's visits were always a pleasant surprise to his only child. "You came at just the right time! Come out and see my Bug!"
"Must you call it that, Linda?" asked her Aunt Emily, who, like all good housekeepers detested every sort of insect.
Linda laughed.
"Take a look at it, Aunt Emily, and see whether you could think of a better name."
Miss Carlton peered through the screen door.
"Where is it?" she asked.
"Come out on the porch, and you can see it," replied Linda.
