four o'clock in the afternoon
In the last few days Tory had quietly been following Memory Frean 's advice and allowing the other Girl Scouts to share in the care of Kara . As a consequence they did seem to feel more pleasure in being together . But then for more than one reason Kara was in a better state of mind . At four o'clock in the afternoon Mr. Fenton sent a large motor car to the Girl Scout camp to bear Kara , Miss Mason , Lucy Martin and any other girls who chose to ride to the place under discussion as the site to be chosen for the Greek pageant . The spot lay midway between the two camps . Earlier in the afternoon Miss Frean had started off with the girls who preferred the hike . Walking steadily without pausing for rest , before the others they arrived at the proposed place .
