But here's the reason for the picnic, Molly chattered to Bunny the day before.

First, I want the Black Eagle Patrol to like Rodman Cree; and, second, I want the rest of the school to like you Scouts. Now if we have a nice, jolly picnic, everybody will get acquainted and understand everybody else. You see, they all have wrong ideas about each other. For instance, Specs thinks Rodman isn't good for anything.

Well--I, admitted Bunny cautiously,

But he can play baseball. I know he can. I saw him bat the first day of school, even if he does say he hit the ball accidentally.

All right. We'll take along a bat and ball and a couple of gloves, and maybe Specs and the others will like him better after they see him play.

Of course. Molly was growing more and more enthusiastic.

As for the others: Peter Barrett thinks you are a lot of snobs and won't associate with fellows who happen to have patches on their clothes and that kind of thing; Buck Claxton says that you try to run things, and that if anybody outside the patrol has a plan, you oppose it, just because you didn't happen to think of it first; Royal Sheffield thinks you are a bunch of sissies, who don't dare walk across the road without asking permission from your Scout Master; Genevieve Chester says you hate her because she was elected president of the student association, and are always hoping something awful will happen to her; Clarence Prissler honestly believes you never think of a thing but athletics, and aren't interested in books or education--and you know he is planning to be a teacher. Molly paused to take breath.

Now, I say that if we have a nice, lively, get-acquainted picnic, everybody will find out his mistakes. Don't you think so?
