About This Book
"Hurrah, Jack, I've got news! To-morrow we are going to ballot for officers!" "I'm glad to hear that," answered Jack Ruddy, as he threw down the algebra he had been studying. "I was almost afraid we weren't going to have officers this term."

"Do you think you are organized, Pep?" queried Jack Ruddy, with a twinkle in his eyes. "I'm organized about as much as I'll ever be," returned Pepper Ditmore.
