are bent on camping out."

A cloud fell over Daisy's sensitive face. "I must telephone to
papa that I am all right," she remarked. "Aunt May expected us
last night, and if you girls do not want to come, Maud and I will
go. We can meet you farther on."

"Oh, of course," Cora hurried to say, "we must go on, since we are
expected. We can have the camping out to-morrow. I had actually
lost track of our plans in the mix-up."

"Isn't it too bad that Hazel had to turn back?" said Ray. "I do
hope her brother is not seriously ill."

"I heard last night that he was very much better," replied Cora.
"It seems that robbery unnerved him. Ridiculous as the situation
appeared, it was no fun to Paul. I don't wonder he broke down."

Bess, Belle and Adele were in the Flyaway, and they, like the
others, seemed to take new pleasure in flying over the roads since
they had realized what it meant to have to stand still.

Adele was all enthusiasm. She had not often been privileged to
enjoy automobile sport, and the prospect of the trip seemed like
an unopened wonder book to her - every mile revealed new delights.

Along the shady byways, through the Numberland Hills, past the
famous springs, where everybody stopped to drink and make a wish,
the motor girls took their way.
