These girls were Clover and Elsie Carr, and it was Clover’s first evening dress for which they were hemming ruffles. The half-finished skirt of the dress lay on the bed and as each crisp ruffle was completed, the girls added it to the snowy heap, which looked like a drift of transparent clouds or a pile of foamy white-of-egg beaten stiff enough to stand alone. It danced on the glossy hair and bright eyes of two girls, who sat together hemming ruffles for a white muslin dress. The September sun was glinting cheerfully into a pretty bedroom furnished with blue.
