INTRODUCTION
Last year Peggy Parsons and Katherine Foster were room-mates at Andrews Preparatory School.
Their escapades and their hunger for good times and adventure kept them from being great favorites of the principal there, but they were loved by the girls of the school and were soon invested with a degree of leadership.
“Peggy Parsons at Prep School,” the first book in this series, tells how much happiness they managed to crowd into a single year.
A would-be charitable enterprise of Peggy’s is recounted, also. And if she had never undertaken it, mistaken though she was, she could not have gone to Hampton, and the present volume would never have been written.
Mr. Huntington, a rich old man, whom people believed to be poverty-stricken because of the way he lived, became a great friend of Peggy’s as the result of a Thanksgiving dinner party she arranged for the cooking-class of her school to give him.
She and Katherine were instrumental, through an adventure in playing amateur detectives, in finding Mr. Huntington’s grandson, of whom he had lost track.
The grandson—the “Jim” of the present book—was an Amherst student about Peggy’s own age.
Katherine Foster had planned to go to Hampton College, but Peggy could not see her way clear. The room-mates were broken-hearted at the prospect of not being together for another year. After Katherine had been assigned another room-mate, Gloria Hazeltine, Peggy gave up hope of going and could not plan with any interest for any other kind of year.
Mr. Huntington then stepped in and turned over for Peggy’s use the income from a dear little group of bungalows which he had named “Parsons Court.”
So Katherine and Peggy were enabled to look forward to college together just as they had their prep school.
