I "But you're not the only one," said' blue-sweetpea, "for we are all go-1 ing." ] "Do'you think the Summer lady will I come?" inquired another, and, "Of1 course she yrilll" answered four of her friends.' '"•'! ".'."OK, I do declare it's time to be going," said white Sweetpea. "The invitation said 'sharp,' so it's time we went." What a wonderful-sparty those Sweetpeas did have! Dancing, playing, skip-1 ping with all the othe^ flowers that were.there. There wore pincushions, poppies, pansies, and roses, hydrangeas, pinks, and^.lots more. And right in the midst of it all came the Summer Lady, smiling and nodding to all her flowers. Never in all their lives had the flowers had such a lovely time. " "BLACK-CURRANT JAM" (10). Hataitai.
