Her little sister, Mabel, romped about in a sailor suit with a short skirt and had a wonderful time, but because Julia was twenty-two instead of sixteen she had to be proper and staid. One day, Julia decided that she couldn't stand it any longer. She bought a sailor suit, like her sister's. One morning, she dressed herself in her new clothes and, when nobody was looking, stole off to the beach. When Bob North came down to the dock that same morning and found a little girl who didn't look a day over fourteen, gazing wistfully at his motorboat, he naturally asked her if she wouldn't like to take a ride with him. His astonishment may be guessed when the little girl replied coldly that she certainly would not think for a moment of going on a ride with him. Bob shrugged his shoulders and pushed off from shore. Later in the day, Julia along the shore was adrift in a boat and was, to tell the truth, in some danger. Bob happened along at a lucky moment in his motorboat and took her off. After that the little girl seemed much more disposed to be friendly, and she and Bob became very good chums. Some time afterward. Bob went with a friend to call on the Deans. It is hardly too much to say that he was stunned when Julia came into the room, stately and magnificent, in a gleaming dress. He was also very angry at the trick she had played on him, until Julia stepped away mysteriously, and reappeared in the sailor suit. Then somehow he got over his anger.'
