THE Y. M. C. A. BOYS
ON BASS ISLAND
CHAPTER I
THE SCRUB BALL TEAMS
One night a week the boys comprising the Junior Department of the
local Y. M. C. A. held a meeting in the room in the building Cliffwood’s
citizens had presented to the organization that was doing so much good
work for young men in the community.
On certain afternoons they were also allowed free use of the
gymnasium. A comparatively new swimming pool was enjoyed by many
after they had exercised. Then there was a bowling alley, and some of the
more expert among the boys ran up pretty high scores.
On the night after the ball game on the commons and the fire at the
Bratton barn, the boys commenced gathering before the time appointed for
the special meeting to take place. Little knots talked seriously as they came
together, for it was known that Dick meant to bring with him a report of the
success or failure attending their efforts to secure the camping grounds
owned by a Mr. Marley on the small lake named after him.
“Some of you fellows,” Dan Fenwick was saying to a group around
him, “who didn’t happen to be at the ball game to-day will be interested to
know that Dick says we’re going to have a football eleven this fall, to try to
hold up the honor of Cliffwood with the rest of the towns around this end of
the woods.”
“Glad to hear that, Dan!” exclaimed one lad, warmly.
“Always said we ought to do something to show our colors,” added
another. “And it’s come all because of Mr. Howell and his scheme for
getting up this Boys’ Department of the Y. M. C. A. That’s done the trick!
You don’t run across many fellows loafing on the street corners these
nights. They’d rather be in here reading the magazines, or taking part in
some of the things that are going on every little while.”
“And there’s no reason,” a third went on to say, boldly, “why Cliffwood
shouldn’t have a hockey team, and a cracking good baseball nine next
season, to boot. We’ve got the stuff all right. With good backing we might
even hope to fetch a trophy home with us once in a while.”
“There’s Mr. Bartlett, going to call the meeting to order,” remarked Dan.
At this speech every one of the boys settled down in a seat; for these
meetings were usually conducted with as much decorum and order as those
carried on by the older members of the Y. M. C. A. organization.
Harry Bartlett usually presided at these gatherings of the boys’ club, but
he took pleasure in frequently turning the meeting over to Dick, who had
been duly elected to the office. This evening as soon as the meeting had
been called to order he asked Dick to take the chair.
The secretary was just beginning to call the roll when there came a
series of squeals and grunts. At the same time three small pigs were seen
running wildly about the room, creating much excitement as they darted
back and forth under the chairs and amidst the legs of twenty-odd boys
gathered there.
Every one knew that Nat and his two cronies had liberated the pigs, for
they were standing in the doorway and laughing heartily at the frantic
efforts of the boys to catch the dodging pigs. All thought of business was
suspended until this duty had been accomplished, after which the offending
pigs were summarily ejected from the building.
Nat pretended to feel sorry over it.
“We meant to lug the little critters over to Mr. Bratton’s house,” he went
on to explain, “to find out if he meant to offer a reward for their safe return.
But now they’re loose again, and in the night nobody could ever catch the
slippery imps. We were goin’ to stop in and let you know we’d be back this
way before long, when they broke loose on us. But it’s all right anyway, and
no damage done, I reckon.”
Of course every one knew the incident was intended to be one of Nat’s
famous practical jokes, but since the excitement had now died down, and
Mr. Bartlett said nothing to the contrary, Dick concluded to forget it.
“The meeting will again come to order,” he called out, vigorously
rapping the table with the gavel, borrowed from the seniors. “The secretary
will start over again with roll call.”
