Betty's Song

"I should smile!" they cried, their eyes gleaming with anticipation. "All we want is the chance!"

Quick as a flash, Betty ran to the piano and began to play the "Star- Spangled Banner." Instantly the others were on their feet and singing with all the pent-up fervour of the last six months, emotions almost too big to master finding expression in the stirring melody.

"And we're all in it together," cried Betty, eyes bright and cheeks flaming, "for our dear country--for America!"

And, at the greatest moment of their lives, fired by patriotism, confident of victory, we once more, slowly, reluctantly, with many backward glances, take leave of our Outdoor Girls.

Directions

I live in a house by the water.

I sit by the water each day.

I take my bag there with me.

In it, I pack a book, a blanket, a chair, and a basket of food.

I walk down my back steps and sit in the same spot along the grass.

When I go out to the water in the morning, I am alone.
