"Oh! so he does. Maybe we shall go that way," said Hazel Gray, carelessly.
"It would be lots of fun to see him again. Give my love to his sister."
"Yes, Miss Gray," Ruth returned seriously. "I will tell Helen."
She really liked Hazel Gray, and wished to see her get ahead. And it was
through her acquaintanceship with Hazel that Ruth had made a friend of
Mr. Hammond. But it annoyed Ruth that the actress should continue to be so

suggested another thing to Ruth Fielding, something which she had been
racking her brains about for some time.
This idea had nothing to do with the present play; it had to do, instead,
