“Come in,” called Merry, and the football manager entered. Frank rose at once, exclaiming:
“Mr. Lorrimer, this is a surprise! Have a chair.”
Without noticing the invitation, Lorrimer began:
“Look here, Merriwell, what do you think you are going to make out of this business?”
“To what do you refer, sir?” asked Frank quietly.
“Why, kicking up all this fuss, of course.”
“I have not kicked up any fuss, Mr. Lorrimer.”
“You may not have done it personally, but you are at the bottom of it,” accused Steve.
“I think you are mistaken. But, first, I wish you to make yourself clear. What fuss do you refer to?”
“Why, this demonstration business.”
