“It was a nice place, with clean straw,” stated Freddie.
“An’ the cookies were awful good!” added Flossie. “But we ate ’em all up and I’m hungry again.”
“Suppah’s ready,” Dinah announced.
“And you mustn’t go in the dog house again,” said Mrs. Pry. “Next time we might not find you, or maybe you couldn’t get out.”
“Oh, we could get out easy enough,” said Freddie.
Thus the lost ones were found, and though Nan laughed at how funny the two twins looked as they came, sleepy-eyed, out of the dog house with straw clinging to them, she had been anxious for a time.
That evening Flossie and Freddie went to bed early, for they were still sleepy from having been out in the fresh air nearly all afternoon. Grace Lavine came over to see Nan, and Charlie Mason called to play some games with Bert.
“I came past Danny Rugg’s house on the way over,” Charlie said to Bert. “What do you think he was doing?”
“Breaking more church windows?” asked Bert.
“Breaking church windows? What do you mean? Do you think Danny smashed the one near our school?” asked Charlie.
