E-text prepared by Jim Ludwig
"The High School Boys' Canoe Club" by H. Irving Hancock is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story follows a group of young high school boys, collectively known as Dick & Co., who embark on a summer adventure centered around their newly acquired canoe and the rivalries that come with their high school social lives. At the start of the narrative, the boys eagerly participate in a chaotic auction where they hope to acquire a war canoe for a minimal cost. Their excitement is palpable as they bid for the canoe, ultimately succeeding but not without the treachery of their wealthy rival, Fred Ripley, who deliberately drives up the bid to prevent them from getting it at an easy price. After winning the canoe, they soon discover that it has significant flaws, prompting them to scheme to raise funds for its repair, presenting both a challenge and an opportunity for friendship and teamwork as they navigate their summer plans.
