Produced by Roger Frank and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Tom Slade at Temple Camp" by Percy Keese Fitzhugh is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Tom Slade, a young boy who has progressed from a reckless youth known for his mischievous behavior to a responsible scout leader after being elected by his peers. The narrative centers around Tom's journey with his friends as they prepare for a summer camp filled with adventures, self-discovery, and the spirit of scouting. At the start of the book, we are introduced to the dynamics of the Scout troop as they elect Tom Slade as the assistant camp manager for Temple Camp. This event sets the stage for Tom’s character development and hints at the camaraderie and competitive spirit among the boys. Tom's humble acceptance speech reveals his determination to prove himself and his desire to embark on a hike to the camp instead of taking a train, which emphasizes his commitment to the scout ethos. The opening also introduces key characters, including Roy Blakeley, who orchestrates the election, and Pee-wee Harris, the comedic mascot of their group, highlighting their personalities and the humorous banter that characterizes their interactions. The contrast between Tom's serious demeanor and Pee-wee’s playful character forms a foundation for their upcoming adventures.
