Like herself, there were plenty of girls in school to whom mischief did not appeal, but Eleanor's beauty, wealth and fascinating personality were found to dazzle some of the girls, who would follow her about like sheep, and it was over these girls that Grace felt worried.

If Eleanor were to organize and carry out any malicious piece of mischief and they were implicated, they would all have to suffer for what she would be directly responsible.

Grace's heart was with her class.

She wished it to be a class among classes, and felt an almost motherly anxiety for its success.
"What does ail some of our class ?" she exclaimed to Anne and Nora one day as they left the school building.

"They seem possessed with imps.
The Phi Sigma Tau girls and a few of the grinds are really the only ones who behave lately." "It's largely due to Eleanor, I think," replied Anne.
