`` But , '' said Cecily , reproachfully , `` have n't you anything for Sara Ray to do ? She 'll feel awful bad if she is left out . '' I had forgotten Sara Ray . Nobody , except Cecily , ever did remember Sara Ray unless she was on the spot . But we decided to put her in as advertising manager . That sounded well and really meant very little . `` Well , we 'll go ahead then , '' I said , with a sigh of relief that the project had been so easily launched . `` We 'll get the first issue out about the first of January . And whatever else we do we must n't let Uncle Roger get hold of it . He 'd make such fearful fun of it . '' `` I hope we can make a success of it , '' said Peter moodily . He had been moody ever since he was entrapped into being fiction editor . `` It will be a success if we are determined to succeed , '' I said . '' ` Where there is a will there is always a way . ' '' `` That 's just what Ursula Townley said when her father locked her in her room the night she was going to run away with Kenneth MacNair , '' said the Story Girl . We pricked up our ears , scenting a story . `` Who were Ursula Townley and Kenneth MacNair ? '' I asked . `` Kenneth MacNair was a first cousin of the Awkward Man 's grandfather , and Ursula Townley was the belle of the Island in her day . Who do you suppose told me the story -- no , read it to me , out of his brown book ? ''
`` Never the Awkward XXXXX himself ! ''
