Chapter 1:  It had been said--tho the remark was doubtless prompted by jealousy--that the Grace Evangelical Church held bazaars for the sole purpose of exhibiting Miss Irene Hazelwood. At any rate, the Grace Evangelical was very proud of Miss Irene, and would as soon hold a bazaar without ice cream as without her lovely face in the flower booth.

Whatever might be the reigning blossom of the season and the fashion, Irene Hazelwood, embosomed in a stall full of the costly dainties, looked like that flower. (#00001000)
