Chapter XXI
SCOUT HARRIS FIXES IT Perhaps you will say that Pee-wee was not a good scout to speak with such impudent assurance to his elders. But you are to remember what I told you about Pee-wee, that everything about him was tremendous except his size. He was not always the ideal scout in little things. He was a true scout in the big things. When he reached the shack he found Pepsy waiting for him and he poured forth his grievance into her sympathetic ears.
