"They certainly will," laughed Margery. "I wouldn't want to be in Jake Hoover's shoes." "I hope nothing will happen to him," said Eleanor, anxiously. "It would be a great pity for him to get into trouble now." "I think he deserves to get into some sort of trouble," said Dolly, stoutly. "He's made enough for other people."
