64 <strong>Four</strong> Little <strong>Blossoms</strong> <strong>at</strong> <strong>Brookside</strong> <strong>Farm</strong><br />

home for the birds, just as people always see<br />

wh<strong>at</strong>ever they are most interested in first.<br />

"Flowers !" said Dot.<br />

She had seen the hollyhocks th<strong>at</strong> stood up<br />

straight and tall against the fence th<strong>at</strong> shut off<br />

the back of Aunt Polly's house.<br />

Peter Apgar had come up to take the car and<br />

perhaps to see the new arrivals. The four <strong>little</strong><br />

<strong>Blossoms</strong> liked him <strong>at</strong> once, and when he spoke<br />

"Can't say you're lonesome now, Miss Polly,"<br />

he chuckled pleasantly. He always called her<br />

Miss Polly, never Mrs. Hayward. "<strong>And</strong> I<br />

guess Jud is as good as useless to me the rest of<br />

the summer. Wh<strong>at</strong> these youngsters don't think<br />

up to do, he will," the farmer added, with a<br />

broad grin.
