"I just as soon," said Henry Rooter. "I got nothin' p'ticular to do." "I haven't either," said Herbert. Thereupon, Patty sat between them on the steps. "This is per-feckly grand!" she cried. "Come on, Florence, aren't you going to sit down with all the rest of us?"
"Oh, about that!" Florence said, and swung the gate shut between them. "Well, I guess it's too late to tell you to-night, Herbert; but maybe if you and that nasty little Henry Rooter do every single thing I tell you to, and do it just exackly like I tell you from this time on, why maybe I only say 'maybe' well, maybe I'll tell you some day when I feel like it."
"Two dollars and a half!" she cried. "Why, I could buy this whole place for two dollars and a half, printing-press, railing, and all yes, and you thrown in, Mister Henry Rooter!" "See here, Florence," Henry said earnestly. "Haven't you got two dollars and a half?" "Of course she hasn't!" his partner assured him. "She never had two dollars and a half in her life!"
"We got plenty," said Herbert; whereupon he and Henry produced pencils and their professional note-books, and supplied their fair friend and themselves with material for "Truth." "Come on, Patty, whisper me whatever you want to." "No; I ought to have her whisper me, first," Henry Rooter objected. "I'll write the answer to any question; I don't care what it's about."
After his outcry, he kept mumbling to himself his words were inaudible lost his voice don't wonder! Some rooter he'd make at a football game while he lasted! After muttering a minute, he stopped and listened intently, as though expecting an answer. Good heavens! He thinks he can be heard! He moved on, staggering crazily, stumbling, stopping to look at the shining peaks; then going on aimlessly.
A longitudinal Brigadieress in the army of Intellectuality did the main Spiel, with Loretta as principal Rooter. The Speaker was there with the Pep and with the Vocabulary. Otherwise she was a Naughty-Naughty. The costume was a plain Burial Shroud, the only Ornament being a 4-carat Wen just above the Neck-band.

She sang, to the air of "Rock of Ages": "Henry Rooter, Herbert, too they make me sick, they make me sick, that's what they do." However, they were only too well prepared with their annihilating response. "Oh, say not so! Florence, say not so! Florence! Say not so!"
"Try and be a lady anyway for a few minutes, can't you? I got to figure out how much we got to charge you for your ole poem, don't I?" "Well, then," Florence returned, "you better ask me somep'n about that, hadn't you?" "Well," said Henry Rooter, "have you got any money at home?" "No, I haven't." "Have you got any money with you?" "Yes, I have." "How much is it?" "I won't tell you."
Louise went down town with her mother, so the team was deprived of the support of its feminine rooter on the eventful afternoon. They met in front of Silvey's. John boasted the one addition made to the equipment of that first practice when he appeared with a second-hand pair of shin-guards which he had acquired from a boy at school in exchange for a dime and an agate shooter.
