So I have given up trying to talk things over with Sara . This old journal will be better . Last night Sara and I went to Mrs. Trent 's musicale . I had to sing and I had the loveliest new gown for the occasion . At first Sara thought my old blue dress would do . She said we must economize this summer and told me I was entirely too extravagant in the matter of clothes . I cried about it after I went to bed . Sara looked at me very sharply the next morning without saying anything . In the afternoon she went uptown and bought some lovely pale yellow silk organdie . She made it up herself -- Sara is a genius at dressmaking -- and it was the prettiest gown at the musicale . Sara wore her old grey silk made over . Sara does n't care anything about dress , but then she is forty . Walter Shirley was at the Trents ' . The Shirleys are a new family here ; they moved to Atwater two months ago . Walter is the oldest son and has been at college in Marlboro all winter so that nobody here knew him until he came home a fortnight ago . He is very handsome and distinguished-looking and everybody says he is so clever . He plays the violin just beautifully and has such a melting , sympathetic voice and the loveliest deep , dark , inscrutable eyes . I asked Sara when we came home if she did n't think he was splendid . `` He 'd be a nice boy if he was n't rather conceited , '' said Sara . After that it was impossible to say anything more about Mr. Shirley .
I am glad he is going XXXXX be in Atwater all summer .
