"There is not a house in town so convenient for all as the Sherwoods," said
Ada Chester; then turning to Gussie she asked:
"Could we go to your house to make up the badges, Miss Sherwood?"
"Certainly; that is, I think so. Dexie is the acting manager at home, so
you had better consult with her," replied Gussie, pleasantly.
"Come here, Dexie," and Edith turned to where Dexie was evoking sweet music
from the organ. "May we go to your house to make the badges?"
"That depends on what night you wish to come. If to-morrow evening is too
soon to appoint for the meeting, you could come Saturday. You know I have
to be at the church on Friday evening."
"To be sure! I forgot about the meeting, and there is to be choir practice
afterwards, so I'm engaged for Friday evening as well. How shall we arrange
it?" and Edith looked inquiringly around the group.
"Put it to vote," and Frank Fenerty rose to his feet.
