"We won't do any bragging just yet," Prescott proposed.
"That's right. You'd better not," Ted growled under his breath.
"Fellows," announced Dan Dalzell, "I've made an important discovery."
"I wonder if he saw me?" flashed through Teall's mind, as he tried to lie flatter than before.
"Name the discovery," begged Hazelton.
"Look at your watches, fellows," Dan continued, "and I think you'll find that it's now proper time for us to go in swimming."
"So it is," Darrin agreed. "Hurrah!"
Little more was said for a few moments. All the fellows of Dick & Co. were busy in getting their clothing off.
"Say, but I hope you fellows get far enough away from your duds!" breathed Teall vengefully, as he watched through the screen of leaves.
"Do you fellows think we had better leave a guard over our clothes?" queried Dick, as they stood forth, ready for swimming.
