  "The trouble with Linda Lane," said Mrs. Quincy, "was that she 'couldn'tget along with folks.'" As everyone knows, a girl needs friends to loveher and believe in her. It isn't to be wondered at that Linda wasn'thappy. Then little Miss Gilly came to the rooms of the Society, the onlyhome Linda knew, and took the girl home with her. A new life begins forLinda, and she finds, to her surprise and delight, how to get along withpeople, how to make friends, and slowly and surely how to be happy.

  Linda admires independence above all other traits of character. She hasplenty of that quality herself and she is the kind of girl who not onlycheerfully fights her own battles, but those of the weaker who cannotdefend themselves. She is "bossy," lovable, impatient and loyal, a bornmanager, whose plans invariably work out to satisfactory conclusions,and Linda has a definite plan which gradually unfolds in these bookswritten about her--the sort of plan only a girl without a home andparents of her own could think of and carry to completion. Linda Laneknows what she wants and she is willing to work and trust to her ownefforts to make her wishes come true.
