Ruby is the spirit of the little girl who lives inside all “mature” Red Hatters. She usually dresses in quite the lady-like style and she can comport herself in just as refined a manner as the most royal among us. But, she has an irrepressible side to her personality too, and, try as she might, she always succumbs to the temptation to just let go and have a ball.
Ruby is only 10 inches tall, but she is definitely real. Although, not everyone can see her. It seems that you have to possess a certain spirit of fun to actually see her.
But we don’t always see her clearly. She seems to be akin to a leprechaun, which, in Irish lore, is a “now-you-see-it, now-you-don’t” creature. Even the office personnel see her only occasionally. One reason for that is that she is constantly taking off to see what fun there is to be had all over the place.
