"You think there wasn't enough of it," laughed the colonel. "You
have a real Scout appetite."
"To change the subject, what about uniforms?" inquired Jack.
"We will have to have them, I suppose," replied Gerald.
"Sure," returned Pepper; "that's all right, they won't cost much."
"I have an idea," broke in Rand.
"Clutch it, Randolph, ere it flies!" cried Pepper; "what is it?"
"I think," went on Rand, "that it would be a good idea if we, each
one of us, earned the money ourselves to buy our uniforms."
"'Tis no a bad idea," assented Donald.
"I think it is a very good one," commended the colonel. "You have
caught the spirit of the organization."
"How shall we do it?" asked Jack.
"Any way you like," replied Rand. "We will have to work it out,
each one for himself."
"All right," responded Pepper, "I am going to get busy right away."
"Right now, Pepper?" asked Dick.
"Now, that don't remind you of anything," warned Pepper. "Not just
this minute, but as soon as I get back to town."
"What's your scheme, Pepper?" asked Donald.
