Aunt Martha made her clothes, with
Anne's help, and of course the girl
could neei hae what she V, anted.
When the other girls weic wearing
sprigged voiles or dimities or dotted
awls, Anne wore calico with the dnrk
est background possible, so ai not to
show the dirt. b n child she had beeir

would rip nnd sew things over nftcr her

her clever flngcra would pull the ugly
material Into a semblance of stylo so
that It was not as bad ns it might have
otherwise been.
It was Cherry Harding who helped
her to trim over the battered old lints,
so thnt when perched on that wonder
ful head of Anne's with Its nweolo of
golden blown hair, they looked almost
smart.
When Anno came through the bnck
door Into the kitchen in the afternoon
after school, Aunt Martha would look
at her suspiciously and ery closely.
Apparently she wore only the clothes
thnt were provided for her, but they did
not look at all ns Aunt Martha had
planned thnt they should.

lapsed Into silence. Kroni time to tune
