`` I think our resolutions ought to be giving up wrong things or doing right ones . '' `` You make your resolutions to suit yourself and I 'll make mine to suit myself , '' said Felix defiantly . `` I shall never get drunk , '' wrote Peter painstakingly . `` But you never do , '' said the Story Girl in astonishment . `` Well , it will be all the easier to keep the resolution , '' argued Peter . `` That is n't fair , '' complained Dan . `` If we all resolved not to do the things we never do we 'd all be on the Roll of Honour . '' `` You let Peter alone , '' said Felicity severely . `` It 's a very good resolution and one everybody ought to make . '' `` I shall not be jealous , '' wrote the Story Girl . `` But are you ? '' I asked , surprised . The Story Girl coloured and nodded . `` Of one thing , '' she confessed , `` but I 'm not going to tell what it is . '' `` I 'm jealous sometimes , too , '' confessed Sara Ray , `` and so my first resolution will be ' I shall try not to feel jealous when I hear the other girls in school describing all the sick spells they 've had . ' '' `` Goodness , do you want to be sick ? '' demanded Felix in astonishment . `` It makes a person important , '' explained Sara Ray . `` I am going to try to improve my mind by reading good books and listening to older people , '' wrote Cecily . `` You got that out of the Sunday School paper , '' cried Felicity .
`` It does n't matter where I got it , '' said XXXXX with dignity .
