The Story of the Treasure Seekers

CHAPTER 8
2/24

Because you've no idea what a bother it is.

Everybody wanted to put in everything just as they liked, no matter how much room there was on the page.

It was simply awful! Dora put up with it as long as she could and then she said if she wasn't let alone she wouldn't go on being editor; they could be the paper's editors themselves, so there.
Then Oswald said, like a good brother: 'I will help you if you like, Dora,' and she said, 'You're more trouble than all the rest of them! Come and be editor and see how you like it.

I give it up to you.' But she didn't, and we did it together.

We let Albert-next-door be sub-editor, because he had hurt his foot with a nail in his boot that gathered.
When it was done Albert-next-door's uncle had it copied for us in typewriting, and we sent copies to all our friends, and then of course there was no one left that we could ask to buy it.
