In Mrs. Elliotts library at Vernondale a great discussion was going on. It was an evening in early December, and the room was bright with firelight and electric light, and merry with the laughter and talk of people who were trying to decide a great and momentous question. For the benefit of those who are not acquainted with Patty Fairfield and her relatives, it may be well to say that Mrs. Elliott was Pattys Aunt Alice, at whose home Patty and her father were now visiting. Of the other members of the Elliott family, Uncle Charley, grandma, Marian, and Frank were present, and these with Mr. Fairfield and Patty were debating a no less important subject than the location of Pattys future home. "You know, papa," said Patty, "you said that if I wanted to live in Vernondale youd buy a house here, and I do want to live here,-at least, I am almost sure I do." "Oh, Patty," said Marian, "why arent you quite sure? Youre president of the club, and the girls are all so fond of you, and youre getting along so well in school. I dont see where else you could want to live."
