By evening everything was in place.

As the last grand lady left the school, she gave Trina an extra dollar for her work, and said: "Now, if you'll just tidy up here, Mrs.McTeague, I think that will be all.

Sweep up the pine needles here--you see they are all over the floor--and look through all the rooms, and tidy up generally.

Good night--and a Happy New Year," she cried pleasantly as she went out.
Trina put the dollar away in her trunk before she did anything else and cooked herself a bit of supper.

Then she came downstairs again.
The kindergarten was not large.
