Everybody says so . '' `` They 'll have to get along without it or stay runts , '' retorted Faith stubbornly . `` Here , Una , you stir it while I set the table . If I leave it for a minute the horrid stuff will burn . It 's half past nine . We 'll be late for Sunday School . '' `` I have n't seen anyone going past yet , '' said Una . `` There wo n't likely be many out . Just see how it 's pouring . And when there 's no preaching the folks wo n't come from a distance to bring the children . '' `` Go and call Carl , '' said Faith . Carl , it appeared , had a sore throat , induced by getting wet in the Rainbow Valley marsh the previous evening while pursuing dragon-flies . He had come home with dripping stockings and boots and had sat out the evening in them . He could not eat any breakfast and Faith made him go back to bed again . She and Una left the table as it was and went to Sunday School . There was no one in the school room when they got there and no one came . They waited until eleven and then went home . `` There does n't seem to be anybody at the Methodist Sunday School either , '' said Una . `` I 'm GLAD , '' said Faith . `` I 'd hate to think the Methodists were better at going to Sunday School on rainy Sundays than the Presbyterians .
But there 's no preaching XXXXX their Church to-day , either , so likely their Sunday School is in the afternoon . ''
