here are other people to consider besides myself. That
is what being a freshman at Overton has taught me."
"That's a very good thing for all of us to remember," remarked Grace.
"I'm going to try to practise it next year."
"You won't have to try very hard," returned Elfreda dryly. "How much
time have we?"
"Almost an hour," replied Miriam, looking at her watch.
"Then we've time to stop at Vinton's for a farewell sundae. It's our
last freshman treat. Come on, everybody," invited the stout girl.
"No more sundaes here until next fall," lamented Miriam, as they sat
waiting for their order. "I shall miss Vinton's. There is nothing in
Oakdale quite like it."
"And I shall miss you girls," declared Elfreda bluntly.
"Why don't you pay us a visit, then?" suggested Miriam. "We expect to be
at home part of the time this summer."
"Perhaps I will," reflected Elfreda. "But you must write to me at any
rate."
At the station groups of happy-faced girls stood waiting for the train.
"We are going to have plenty of company," observed Anne. "Do you
remember how forlorn we felt when we were cast away on this station
platform last fall? We won't feel so strange next September."
"We shall feel very important instead," laughed Miriam. "It will be our
turn to escort bewildered freshmen to their boarding places."
"Yes, and we'll see that they don't stray, too," retorted Elfreda
grimly.
"Or mistake the Register for the registrar," smiled Grace.
What befell Grace and her friends during their sophomore year is set
forth fully in "Grace Harlowe's Second Year at Overton College."
How they lived up to their girlish ideals, finding the "rainbow
side" of their sophomore year, is a story that no admirer of Grace
Harlowe can afford to miss.
