"How to make over the house, you mean?"
"How to make over the house and how to run the Fresh Air settlement
when the house is made over."
"There's no doubt we'll know more at the end of the summer than we know
now! We've got to get information from every source we can."
"The way Roger has up to now."
"We must think of every one we know who has made over a house, and Dr.
Watkins ought to be able to tell us of some people who have had Fresh
Air children staying with them, so we can get some idea about what they
need and how a house is managed."
"Come, come." A chirp rose from near the ground. Ayleesabet was tired
of being disregarded for so long.
"You blessed Lamb!" cried Ethel Blue. "Did you say, 'Come, come,' just
because you heard it? Did you think we were talking very learnedly
about things we didn't know much about! Never mind, ducky daddles,
we'll know a lot about them six months from now!"
"Just the way we've learned a lot about babies in the last six months
from this little teacher!" added Ethel Brown.
"Come, come. Home, home," remarked Elisabeth insistently.
"What's the matter? Are your leggies tired? Want the Ethels to carry
you?"
Elisabeth made it known that she would like some such method of
transportation, and sat joyfully on a "chair" which the two girls made
by interclasping their wrists.
