Beverly takes herself in hand. The effect on Great-aunt Jenny

LETTING THE FATHER LEAD US

[Of Special Interest to Young People]

ZULA HALL

Beverly and her mother were spending the summer with Great-aunt Jenny. Some young folks had invited Beverly to go with them to a lake in the mountains for a holiday of boating and swimming. Beverly was delighted, but Great-aunt Jenny disapproved, for she thought it much too dangerous.
