"How do you vote when you want to and don't want to?" asked Amy.
"You decide which you want more," said Margery.
"O Amy, you goose, we'll have another next summer, if we want one, and what's the use of a post-office without Jack," said Trix impatiently.
"Sure enough," said Amy. "Well, I vote aye, then."
"Now once more," cried Jack. "All in favor say aye."
"Aye," cried the four voices.
"Now, Jack, run up to Mr. Dean's while I write an ode," said Margery, and Jack went.
"They say give it up till next summer, and then decide whether to begin again," announced Jack, returning out of breath. "They say better not drag on if it's burdensome. I'm going down to the orchard to get the post-office."
"How shall we burn it?" asked Amy, when Jack came back.
