'' `` We must see what can be done , '' said Anne decidedly , as she put the last possible berry in her pink cup . `` Just as soon as I have my vacation I 'll come through and spend a whole week with you . We 'll have a picnic every day and pretend all sorts of interesting things , and see if we ca n't cheer Miss Lavendar up . '' `` That will be the very thing , Miss Shirley , ma'am , '' exclaimed Charlotta the Fourth in rapture . She was glad for Miss Lavendar 's sake and for her own too .

'' he asked gravely . `` How do I look , Paul ? '' `` Just as if you were looking through me at somebody I put you in mind of , '' said Paul , who had such occasional flashes of uncanny insight that it was n't quite safe to have secrets when he was about . `` You do put me in mind of somebody I knew long ago , '' said Miss Lavendar dreamily . `` When you were young ? '' `` Yes , when I was young .
