Explore "The Camp Fire Girls on the Edge of the Desert" by Margaret Vandercook on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Two girls were standing on the rear platform of a big observation car that had left Chicago a number of hours before.
They were charmingly dressed for travel -- one in a brown corduroy coat and skirt, a cream-colored blouse and a soft brown felt hat, with a single cream-colored wing in it, and the other in blue. The first was a small, dark girl with a brilliant color, scarlet lips and black eyes. But little in the swiftly passing landscape seemed to escape her interest.
