next.' Won't it be fun to see how everything turns out?"
"I wish that expressman would turn up," said Rachel ruefully.
"We'll tell him so if we meet him," said Betty, shouldering her bag and
her golf clubs, while Katherine staggered along with the bursting
suit-case.
As they boarded a car at the corner, Mary Brooks and the faithful
Roberta waved to them energetically from the other side of Main Street.
"Good-bye! Good-bye!" shrieked Katherine.
"See you next September," called Betty, who had said good-bye to them
once already.
"Katherine Kittredge has grown older this year," said Mary critically,
"but Betty hasn't changed a bit. I remember the night she came up the
walk, carrying those bags."
"She has changed inside," said Roberta.
As the car whizzed by the Main Building, Betty wanted to wave her hand
to that too, but she didn't until Dorothy King, appearing on the front
steps, gave her an excuse.
"Well," she said with a little sigh, as the campus disappeared below the
crest of the hill, "you and Rachel may talk all you like, but I feel as
if something was over, and it makes me sad. Just think! We can never be
freshmen at Harding again as long as we live."
"Quite true," said Katherine calmly, "but we can be sophomores--that is,
unless the office sees fit to interfere."
"Yes, we can be sophomores; and perhaps that's just as nice," said Betty
optimistically. "Perhaps it's even nicer."
