Rilla felt' shyness
descend upon her. There were so
many people and she was consci-
ous of their eyes upon her.
But Mark’s arm steadied her,
and his shout made them all quiet.
“Some people don’t have any
manners,” he was complaining
loudly. “You shouldn’t have come
before your hostess arrived. Come
up now and be presented. Xhe
line forms at the right.”
Laughing and joking, the guests
formed a double column, and did

and ■ slower march back again.
Rilla held out her hand to each in
turn. • »

she discovered. The guests know
it was a surprise bii thdaj party
for Don Alden, but few of them
had been told the details, and
finally Rilla, fearful that AUen
would arrive any minute, called
th«ni into one corner of the room,
and started to explain.
Just before she concluded, she
saw’the butler at tjie doorway,
gesticulating wildly.
“Now, everybody scatter!" she
whispered. "All righL lights out."
Complete darkness enveloped the
room at once.' There was the
sound of a chair being knocked
over, a stifled giggle.
