"Here's our house, right here," said James, "and there's Margaret on the porch now."
"And Dorothy," cried the Ethels together.
Margaret Hancock ran down the steps at her brother's call and asked her new friends to stay a while.
"If you don't mind making the first call," she laughed.
She was a clear-eyed girl, not as pretty as Helen, but with a frank expression that was pleasant to see. "Nobody stands on ceremony at Chautauqua," she went on, "and if you want to see anybody you've got to seize her right where you find her."
They all laughed, for she had used almost the same words as her brother.
"You see how the Hancock family holds together," said James.
"This is Dorothy Smith."
Margaret introduced the young girl on the porch to Helen, for she was already speaking to the Ethels.
"Helen, Helen," they cried, "this is our friend Dorothy we told you about."
