Friendship Village And since those whom we know best never come to Friendship without a welcome, it was instantly incumbent on us all to be what Calliope called "up in arms an' flyin' round." Friendship Village "I donno," Calliope said, as, on her return, we talked about Ellen Ember, "I guess I kind o' believe in craziness." Friendship Village Calliope hardly ever felt the same about anything. Friendship Village Calliope smiled a little, with her way of coming back to the moment from the four great horizons.
