"Yes, that's what we are going to have," her father said.

CHAPTER XIX
THE SALLIE GROWLER
Have you ever toasted marshmallow candies at the seashore beach? If you have you need not stop to read this part of the story. But if you have not, from this and the next page you may learn how to do it.
In the first place you need three things to have a marshmallow roast, and you can easily guess what the first thing is. It's a box of the white candies. Then you need a fire, and, if you are a little boy or girl, it will be best to have your father or mother or some big person make the fire for you, as you might get burned.
Then you need some long, pointed sticks on which to hold the marshmallow candies as you toast them. If the sticks are too short you will toast your fingers or your face instead of the candies.
"Have you got lots of marshmallows, Daddy?" asked Rose, as she and the other children gathered about their father.
"Plenty, I think," he answered. "We don't want so many that you will be made ill, you know."
