Kit of Greenacre Farm

CHAPTER XXIV
4/9

Get some pots of paint in and go to work, girls." Kit acted immediately on the suggestion and drove up with Shad to look over the collection of discarded antiques in the two garrets.

What she liked best of all were the three-drawer, old-fashioned chests and hand-made wooden chairs.

There were ewer stands also, and several old single slat bedsteads.
"We're going to paint them all over, mother dear, in the loveliest yellows and grays, and Shad says that it won't be any trick at all for him to build the floors for us, and he says he can fix up little hanging-cupboards like they have in the tea-rooms, don't you know, to hold a few plates and dishes for light housekeeping." "I don't see what else we're going to need," Helen put in, thoughtfully, "except the finishing touches, and I can add those.

They'll need some jars for wild flowers and cushions and little things like that." "Well, don't forget that they'll have to eat some time," Cousin Roxy remarked.

"Get some two-burner oil stoves and folding tables and camp chairs, or if you want to be real rustic and quaint, have Shad here knock some white birch ones together, and probably the city folks will admire them more than anything you could buy.
