"But you never do," said the Story Girl in astonishment.

"Well, it will be all the easier to keep the resolution," argued
Peter.

"That isn't fair," complained Dan. "If we all resolved not to do
the things we never do we'd all be on the Roll of Honour."

"You let Peter alone," said Felicity severely. "It's a very good
resolution and one everybody ought to make."

"I shall not be jealous," wrote the Story Girl.

"But are you?" I asked, surprised.

The Story Girl coloured and nodded. "Of one thing," she
confessed, "but I'm not going to tell what it is."

"I'm jealous sometimes, too," confessed Sara Ray, "and so my first
resolution will be 'I shall try not to feel jealous when I hear
the other girls in school describing all the sick spells they've
had.'"

"Goodness, do you want to be sick?" demanded Felix in
astonishment.

"It makes a person important," explained Sara Ray.

"I am going to try to improve my mind by reading good books and
listening to older people," wrote Cecily.
