THE RED-LETTER DAY
"What's a red-letter day, Nora?" asked Betty, coming into the kitchen where Nora was doing the Saturday baking.
"It's a day when something 'specially nice happens," answered Nora. "Why?"
"Mamma just said it would be a red-letter day if she got all her mending done by night. I wish," added Betty wistfully, "that I could make it a red-letter day for her!"
"You can!" cried Nora. "I'll show you how to make a cake, and then she won't have to make it. She can have the time to mend."
