emurely. "The best fellow ought to get the office," said Fred slyly. "Of course, but who is the best fellow? That's the question. We ought to talk it over among ourselves a little," added Charles. "What good would that do?" "Each fellow would know whom the others were going to vote for." "That would not help him to ascertain who would make the best coxswain," Fred insisted.

You see if there are not a dozen different ones voted for," protested Charles. "We can try it over again, then," said Fred. "I shall vote for you, and perhaps you will vote for me." "_Perhaps_ I shall." "And that is the way it will be all through the club." "Charley, what do you say to giving Frank a re-election?" said Fred, with sudden energy, while the mischief seemed to beam from his eyes.
