Dorothy Dale and Her Chums

It was two days later, very early in the morning, when Nat went down to the “enclosure” to feed the lonely birds remaining in the cage, that he found one of those--a carrier whi...

But one week remained now of all the long summer vacation--then school must be taken up again, and the labor of learning must become both work and play for our young friends.

The cloud that had so persistently floated over the head of Miette since the girls of Nita’s clique showed their disapproval of the new pupil, now seemed to have settled down up...

“The very goods--note that I delivered them,” said Nat in joyous tones. “Now, there’s more stuff inside, and we may as well deliver them all on one trip. Watch that crate, Tavia...

“And now, my dears,” said Mrs. White, a day or two after the trip to New York, “you must soon be thinking of returning to Glenwood. You have had quite a vacation, and it is too...

With a gait that betokened indolence, and her entire appearance bearing out that suggestion, a girl with a bright-colored handkerchief on her head, sauntered along the path in t...

As Dorothy expected, Mrs. White took the lonely girl to her heart at once, and it was only a matter of time--that of waiting for Miette’s convalescence,--that now withheld them...

“Why, I just added a line, as Mrs. Pangborn said I might. I said that you were in distress, and if she knew where your aunt lived, should she go there and see if she still was a...

The girls were at Glenwood School--all over the place, as Tavia expressed it. But the particular group in question happened to be situated in the broad hall near the “coming in”...

The disappointment was keen--Dorothy had felt Urania must be near, but instead of finding a lonely girl, she and the Major encountered a group of school girls on a nutting party...

The matter of “doing something for Urania,” had been the all absorbing topic during the evening meal, when the various plans talked of during the day were brought up for final c...

Mrs. Pangborn listened first to Dorothy, and then to Miette. That the little French girl had been abandoned by her relatives, as Miette claimed, was hard to believe, but it was...

Once on the train, and out among strangers, Dorothy felt as if all eyes were upon Urania. Was her disguise really good? Might some one know her from the published descriptions,...

The rustling in the leaves ceased--the runner stopped. Dorothy saw this and hurried to add to her entreaties. “Do come over and let me talk to you. I am glad I found you. You su...

“I am so sorry to leave you,” he told Dorothy, “but, as you say, you are not far from your aunt’s place, no doubt you will be able to communicate with her soon. I assure you, if...

“Indeed, I will,” was the quick reply. And then, as the crowd passed on, Edna continued: “But where in the world is Dorothy? I haven’t seen her since she came along dragging tha...

“I did not bring you here,” replied Dorothy, showing some indignation, in spite of her stronger emotions. “Just be as quiet as you can, and I am sure it will all come right. Thi...

“Pry into that girl’s affairs. You were told as well as the rest of us that we were to be most careful of her feelings. She does not understand American boarding schools,” said...

Mrs. White wrote that the police were looking for the gypsy girl, as well as for the men who had robbed Birchland, and wanted the girl on a charge of robbery!

“There is only one thing to be done,” said Rose-Mary, when early that same evening she managed to get a word alone with Dorothy, “we must call off the ‘jinks.’ If we don’t they...

This spot was chosen deliberately and with much care. The trees furnished shade for the tents: the brook furnished water for the horses and for housekeeping purposes, the meadow...

“Of all things, to have that happen just now! Isn’t it too mean!” sighed Dorothy, perching herself on the high shelf at the side of the pump, and gazing dejectedly beyond the wi...

“Come, hurry,” said Dorothy to Urania, as the gypsy girl gazed in wonder at the new clothes she was to put on. They were in the gardener’s little room, an apartment allowed Uran...

“Now, I must tell you girls,” began Dorothy, an afternoon later, when the “committee” on initiation was in session, “you will have to be gentle with Miette. She has only lately...

“Now that it’s all over, and we can think without a guide,” said Dorothy, coming out from the luncheon table, “we really ought to consider Urania--we ought to consult Aunt Winni...
