One night, Mama came home practically in a state of shock.
She had stood at the bottom of the stairs, as usual, when Mrs. Coolidge came down, in the same dress that is now in the Smithsonian, to greet her guests.
Mama stooped down to fix the train, but there was no train there!!
She reached and reached around the dress, but there was nothing there.
She looked up and saw that, without knowing it, Mrs. Coolidge was holding it aloft.
Mrs. Coolidge looked down, saw Mama's horrified expression and quickly let the whole thing fall to the floor.
Mama swirled the train in place, and not a step was lost.
