But I hide then . Sara just goes and cries in public . '' The lachrymose Sara presently joined us and we discovered the cause of her tears to be the doleful fact that her mother had forbidden her to go to the magic lantern show that night . We all showed the sympathy we felt . `` She SAID yesterday you could go , '' said the Story Girl indignantly . `` Why has she changed her mind ? '' `` Because of the measles in Markdale , '' sobbed Sara . `` She says Markdale is full of them , and there 'll be sure to be some of the Markdale people at the show . So I 'm not to go . And I 've never seen a magic lantern -- I 've never seen ANYTHING . '' `` I do n't believe there 's any danger of catching measles , '' said Felicity . `` If there was we would n't be allowed to go . '' `` I wish I COULD get the measles , '' said Sara defiantly . `` Maybe I 'd be of some importance to ma then . '' `` Suppose Cecily goes down with you and coaxes your mother , '' suggested the Story Girl . `` Perhaps she 'd let you go then . She likes Cecily . She does n't like either Felicity or me , so it would only make matters worse for us to try . '' `` Ma 's gone to town -- pa and her went this afternoon -- and they 're not coming back till to-morrow . There 's nobody home but Judy Pineau and me . ''
`` Then , '' said the Story Girl , `` why do n't you just go XXXXX the show anyhow ?
