AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Wryly pleasant. Effie Smith is sent Cinderella-fashion to substitute for her rich cousins at a children's party thrown by a friend of their father's. Effie mistakenly attends the wrong ball where she meets handsome rich Laurence Calvert - who accompanies her to the true party when the mistake is discovered and she is insulted and distressed. All ends happily. (PB)
