Then Jane, Rosemary and Sunny joined the race.
The surprise, everyone now knew, was a beautiful flower bed!
As the girls approached closer, they could see it plainly.
The circular bed which Miss Mohr had given to the Brownie Scouts for their very own, now was a mass of blooms.
Yellow and gold and brown tulips blazed in the sunlight. The Brownies never had seen a more gorgeous sight.
“Oh, it’s wonderful!” cried Vevi, dancing about the bed. “Just what I wanted!”
“It’s our very own too!” added Sunny.
“Look at the center of the bed,” directed Connie.
Mr. Van Der Lann had so arranged the tulips that they resembled the clover-shaped Scout emblem.
The letters “G. S.” were spelled out in bright yellow tulips.
