A Kittie Party 237 
had blown toward him and burned his hand so that 
it became very red and blistered. Mrs. Gafney 
rushed across to her house to get some soothing 
oil that was said to be the best thing in the world 
for burns, and Burt’s hand was bandaged up. 
It began to look by this time as though the 
whole party would have to be sent home in an am- 
bulance ; but the arrival of Don told us that it was 
getting close unto six o’clock, for he had come to 
take Winifred home ; and in a few minutes all the 
children, quite unwillingly, began to make ready 
for their departure. 
As they bade us good-bye, they all said that they 
had had a very nice time, and mistress pinned on 
the breast of each child one of those beautiful daf- 
fodils ; and so ended our party. 
Here endeth also my story. 
May the dear, kind Providence bless and keep 
you all.
