THE BALL
"Autumn is here at last," said the Fairy Queen, as she sat on her beautiful throiie of golden autumn leaves. "I think. I will give a ball to celebrate the occasion." She was soon very busy writing out j invitations to all the fairies as well as Fairiel and her little; Elves. : There were'■.hundreds of ■•■ fairies there, all dressed in shining silver and gold, and we all danced till we could dance no more. Then came the supper. The Fairy Queen had provided the most delicious food. There were dewdrops, so beautifully eweet, and little fairy crcainpuffs, with the cream beaten by the queen's own hands. After tea the queen gave everybody a lovely string of pink, cream, and white pearls. . '■■ We wore all very sad at having to say good-bye, but the .queen promised another ball in spring. "SILVERSHOES" (10).
