As
the
President
finished
reading
the
paper
(
which
I
beg
leave
to
assure
my
readers
is
a
bona
fide
copy
of
one
written
by
bona
fide
girls
once
upon
a
time
)
,
a
round
of
applause
followed
,
and
then
Mr
.
Snodgrass
rose
to
make
a
proposition
.
"
Mr
.
President
and
gentlemen
,
"
he
began
,
assuming
a
parliamentary
attitude
and
tone
,
"
I
wish
to
propose
the
admission
of
a
new
member
—
one
who
highly
deserves
the
honor
,
would
be
deeply
grateful
for
it
,
and
would
add
immensely
to
the
spirit
of
the
club
,
the
literary
value
of
the
paper
,
and
be
no
end
jolly
and
nice
.
I
propose
Mr
.
Theodore
Laurence
as
an
honorary
member
of
the
P
.
C
.
Come
now
,
do
have
him
.

Jo
’
s
sudden
change
of
tone
made
the
girls
laugh
,
but
all
looked
rather
anxious
,
and
no
one
said
a
word
as
Snodgrass
took
his
seat
.
"
We
’
ll
put
it
to
a
vote
,
"
said
the
President
.
"
All
in
favor
of
this
motion
please
to
manifest
it
by
saying
,
‘
Aye
’
.
"
A
loud
response
from
Snodgrass
,
followed
,
to
everybody
’
s
surprise
,
by
a
timid
one
from
Beth
.
"
Contrary
-
minded
say
,
‘
No
’
.
"

Meg
and
Amy
were
contrary
-
minded
,
and
Mr
.
Winkle
rose
to
say
with
great
elegance
,
"
We
don
’
t
wish
any
boys
,
they
only
joke
and
bounce
about
.
This
is
a
ladies
’
club
,
and
we
wish
to
be
private
and
proper
.
"
"
I
’
m
afraid
he
’
ll
laugh
at
our
paper
,
and
make
fun
of
us
afterward
,
"
observed
Pickwick
,
pulling
the
little
curl
on
her
forehead
,
as
she
always
did
when
doubtful
.
Up
rose
Snodgrass
,
very
much
in
earnest
.
"
Sir
,
I
give
you
my
word
as
a
gentleman
,
Laurie
won
’
t
do
anything
of
the
sort
.
He
likes
to
write
,
and
he
’
ll
give
a
tone
to
our
contributions
and
keep
us
from
being
sentimental
,
don
’
t
you
see
?
We
can
do
so
little
for
him
,
and
he
does
so
much
for
us
,
I
think
the
least
we
can
do
is
to
offer
him
a
place
here
,
and
make
him
welcome
if
he
comes
.
