“Good-bye! Good-bye!” they cried. “Do not forget that we shall be most happy to have you visit us again!” And the Princess gave Gran’ma, Gran’pa, Janey and Johnny each a beautiful ring in which was set a wonderful Moonstone.
Then when she had kissed them all good-bye again Gran’pa turned the little knob marked “Start” and the new Flying Boat rose slowly from the roof of the Castle and sailed away.
The Princess and the people of Nite watched the Flying Boat until it was out of sight, and then the Princess and Mrs. Tiptoe and the Tiptoe Brothers went into the Castle.
“I wished for them to stay,” said the Princess. “Didn’t you love them all?”
“Indeed I did,” Mrs. Tiptoe answered as she wiped her eyes. “They were all so kind and unselfish.”
“It is nice to know and love them,” said Mr. Tiptoe, “and while I know they had many unpleasant experiences in the Magical Land of Noom, I am so glad they came.”
“Yes,” replied the Princess, “we owe all our present happiness to them and I hope they will come again to visit us soon.”
“Let’s all write a long letter and send it to them,” the Chief of Detectives suggested.
“How?” the others inquired.
