Winona felt prouder of this success than of any other triumph the team had scored, for Kirsty had congratulated her afterwards, and praise from her former captain was very sweet.

It had been the last match of the season, so it made a satisfactory finish to her work.

She felt quite sentimental as she put by her hockey-stick.

Next season there would be a fresh captain, and she would have left the High School! She wished she were staying another year, but her scholarship would expire at the end of July.

She could hardly believe that she had been nearly two years at the school, and that only one term more remained to her.
