ast farewell, until the buildings on the hill were a tiny speck. Then
she turned to her uncle. "Uncle Roddy," she said, seriously, "do you
remember what you said to me the first night I was home, after my
Freshman year?"
"No, dear; not particularly," Uncle Roddy replied. "What was it?"
"You told me that you hoped every year of my life would be happier than
the last," she told him. "Well it has, up until now, but I feel suddenly
lost. What am I going to do?"
Uncle Roddy laughed and he took her hand.
"You're going to begin a new chapter in life, dear," he said, seriously,
"and I think you'll find it more interesting and fuller than the last."
"Will I?" Polly asked, wonderingly.
"Yes," Uncle Roddy said, confidently. "It will be fuller and more worth
while. I know I can trust my Tiddledewinks to make it that."
Polly pondered in silence for a few minutes. Then her frown disappeared
and she gave herself a little shake thereby dismissing all regrets. She
turned to look back in the direction of the school.
"Good-by, dear old Seddon Hall," she said, smiling, "I'm ready for the
next chapter."

entertained.
