The Liberry Teacher lifted her eyes from a half-made catalogue-card, eyed the relentlessly slow clock and checked a long wriggle of purest, frankest weariness. Then she gave a furtive glance around to see if the children had noticed she was off guard; for if they had she knew the whole crowd might take more liberties than they ought to, and have to be spoken to by the janitor. He could do a great deal with them, because he understood their attitude to life, but that wasn't good for the Liberry Teacher's record.

A copy of this book was given to my grandmother for Christmas in 1919. The book has been read and re-read so many times the pages are literally falling out.
It is a delightful story about a working girl who was convinced to marry a young man who had been paralyzed in an accident 7 years previous. She's supposed to take care of him and is determined to make his life happier. Of course, it has a very happy ending.
