“Anyway, we’re glad to have these other two buttons,” Connie thanked her.
The hour was growing late, so the girls said they must be hurrying home.
“Do come again,” Mrs. Myles invited them cordially. “Tomorrow perhaps? I may be able to find a few more buttons.”
“We’d love to,” accepted Connie.
“But tomorrow’s Saturday,” Veve reminded her friend.
“That’s so,” Connie agreed. “If the weather is nice, all the Brownies will be at our tree house in the park.”
“We’ll be pretty busy too,” added Veve in a worried tone. “You see, we invited Sam Vincent to luncheon.”
The name seemed to startle Mrs. Myles. “Sam Vincent?” she repeated in an odd tone.
“He’s very nice,” declared Connie. “The other day during the storm, he picked us up in his car and drove us to our homes.”
“Sam has plenty of time to go galavanting around in a car it seems!” Mrs. Myles said tartly.
