The girls had an idea that Mary Lee's opinion and decision on most things was usually sound.
"I'm sure she won't. She'll feel that it was a very democratic and sensible thing to do," was Mary Lee's answer.
The train was in at last and the waiting girls stood on tiptoe watching the passengers as they came from the coaches.
"I see her, I see her," called Letty. "And there's Dr. Anderson and Bob, too."
But the other girls were no less quick in seeing the Andersons and there was excited gesticulating as well as calls. Finally, Mrs. Anderson saw them. She waved her hand and drew her husband's attention to the girls. The doctor lifted his hat and smiled at them.
Bob made his way through the throng for he also had espied them.
He was the first to get to the gate.
"Hello girls!" he called. "Hello, Mary Lee, it's good to see you."
"I'm glad to see you, too," answered the girl. By that time Aunt Madge had also arrived and the former had embraced and kissed all the girls.
"Well, Mary Lee," she said, when it was her turn, "when I see you I feel I'm at home."
