In The Way - Plot & Excerpts

said Ellen Amelia as she passed her plate for some more cabbage. “I wouldn't have thought she was that kind. She ain't quite like any girls I ever read of either, for she don't seem proud one bit, though she does wear such lovely clothes. She had the cutest little pin on her collar, a wreath of green leaves with a little pearl between each one. If I had a pin like that I'd be just too happy to live. And she had a beautiful ring on. I saw it when she took off her glove to write in our class book.”
                  “I'm sure I don't know why you shouldn't be proud, if you want to, without any pin or ring. You've just as good a right to as she. Your father makes more money than hers ever did, and because he ain't such a fool as to let you spend it on gewgaws isn't any reason why you shouldn't be proud of him, if you want to.”
                  It was practical, anxious little Mrs. Haskins who said this. But Ellen Amelia did not get her admiration for the romantic from her mother's side of the family.
