CHAPTER V

"You can bet that every time I look at that little old gold eagle on top of the flag pole I say, 'Me for you, kiddo.'" "I like Star Scout better," Tom said, unmoved by his companion's consternation.
"Why, that means only ten merit badges," Hervey said.
"It's fun studying the stars," Tom added.
"Oh, sure," Hervey agreed.

What's in a name, hey?

Tom smiled, too.
