Oh, but life is delicious, sighed Majel as she sank down on the deep divan in the state-room that she and her sister Phyllis were to occupy during their journey east by steamer. Yes, remarked Phyllis dryly, life at present is wonderful. but I am worried about what we are going to get into when we reach New York. Remember these are not meant to be our tickets! Well as they are round-trip tickets, why should we worry, asked lilajel gayly9 I for one am going to bed. Want to come along?

After all were introduced, the Senora, going over to Majel, exclaimed. My dear I am sure that we are going to be friends, for I notice that you are also Spanish. Majel looked up in surprise and replied, You are mistaken Senora, I am not Spanish, my mother and father were both Americans. Fnlfly-five
