Bobbsey and
a number of the fathers and mothers had come to see their children
pose for the moving picture camera.
By this time the children had lost their bashfulness, and were acting
as naturally as though they really were at school. They played tag and
other simple games, while the camera clicked their images on the
celluloid film. Miss Burns, as the teacher, took part in some of the
girls' games.
"Now I want a larger boy and girl to walk down the road together, the
boy carrying the girl's books," said Mr. Weston. "You'll do," he went
on to Nan, "and you," to Harry. Soon the two cousins were strolling
along, having their pictures taken.
"I want to go with Nan!" cried Freddie "I want my picture taken some
more."
"Not now, dear," said Miss Burns, who was not in the scene with Nan
and Harry. "Wait a little."
"No, I want to go with Nan now," insisted Freddie, and he broke from
the hand of the actress and rushed after his sister.
"Oh, he'll spoil the picture!" cried Bert, solicitously. "Come back,
Freddie; that's a good boy!"
But Freddie did not intend to come back.
"Nan, Nan! Wait for me!" begged Freddie.
