“He’s going to take a picture of the ad with us in it,” Westy said.
I guess we must have looked pretty funny from down below; anyway the man kept laughing. The way Pee-wee sat there was enough to make any one laugh. He looked as if he thought he was famous already.
The man called, “Just sit naturally and laugh.”
“That’s easy,” I told him; “laughing is our middle name.”
“All right,” he called.
Then he got behind his camera and held out his hand for us to keep still.
“What are you going to do with it?” one of us called down to him.
He said, “Well, pictures of this ad are used for all sorts of things—hat boxes, everything. Your faces will go all over the country.”
“Mine?” Pee-wee shouted.
“Yes, and very likely we’ll use this idea for the big signs too,” the man said. “We might have some wood cut-outs for scouts. How would that be?”
