CHAPTER XVIII
A CURIOUS MEETING
As the cadets were good walkers it did not take them long to cover the distance to Cedarville. They stopped at a shoe store, and at a candy store for some chocolates, and then started for the postoffice.
"I guess Jack is looking for a letter from his best girl," remarked Pepper, with a grin.
"Maybe you're looking for a letter yourself," returned the young major.
"No such luck," and The Imp heaved a deep sigh. "None of the girls ever write to me."
"Rats!" came from Andy. "I saw you get a letter from Flossie Ford only a few days ago."
"I am looking for a check from dad," said Jack. "I want it to buy Christmas presents with."
"So early?"
"Better early than too late."
