oo good for you,
you're such a gay little Maynard! Can't I induce you to stay here with
me when your people go home to-morrow?"

Marjorie laughed, for this was the second invitation she had had to leave
her family. But she well knew Cousin Jack didn't expect her to do it, and
so she smiled, and said, "I couldn't be induced to do that, Cousin Jack;
but I think it would be awfully nice if you and Cousin Ethel would come
and live in Rockwell. Then we could see you so much oftener."

"I'm not sure that we can go and live there,--but if we were coaxed very
hard, we might come and visit you same time."

"I rather think you will!" said Mr. Maynard, heartily, "and the sooner
you come, and the longer you stay, the better we'll like it!"

And before the Maynards left Cambridge, it was definitely arranged that
Cousin Jack and Cousin Ethel should visit them in the near future.

The next day the Maynards started for home. They were to stop a day or
two in Boston, and then proceed by easy stages back to Rockwell.

As the big car started away from the Bryant house, after farewells both
merry and affectionate, the children sang in gay chorus, one of their
favorite road songs:

"All through the May
The Maynards play;
And every day
Is a holiday.
Glad and gay,
The Maynards play;
Maytime for Maynards,
Maynards for May!
No longer in Cambridge can we stay,
But over the hills and far-a-way;
And so good-day,
For we must away,
May for the Maynards! The Maynards for May!"
