Porky and Beany and Asa, sitting on the stone wall at the side of the barn, watched and admired. "That's what I'm goin' to be" whispered Porky. "Sure!" agreed Beany. "Wonder how long it will take us to get that high?" "Dunno," said Porky. "I outgrew two pairs of pants last year!" "Here's the Colonel," said Asa as a big car was driven up and an officer stepped down. "Wait!

Beany, who had walked rapidly over to the place allocated for him, had waited in vain for something to turn up, and long after the time set for the meeting had commenced watching for his brother. Something, he felt sure, had happened in some other part of the grounds. He was strangely uneasy. A great desire to find Porky came over him.

Sept. 13, 186- Brite and fair. today we had a good time. mother let me invite Beany and Pewt and Nipper Brown to supper for company for Will.

You certainly gave him some scare." "I never saw him before," Beany said over and over. When the Colonel came out, the Sergeant gave him a glare, and he repeated the incident as they drove toward the Colonel's house. The Colonel said he would telephone to the hospital, as the man would no doubt come out all right.

June 7. father has bought a horse of Dan Randlet. i rode up to Brentwood with Sam Diar to get it. it is the prettiest horse i ever saw. i rode it down from Brentwood and it goes jest as easy as sitting on a spring board. when i got home Beany got over his mad and came over and i gave him a ride. me and Beany never were mad so long before. June 9.

And the lamp made Beany's head hot, and he took the funny thin paper we found over to the swimmin' hole and made a sort of shade of it. And when we had our letter done, Beany went to take down the shade and, honest to gosh, boys, it was all written on! Wouldn't that frost you? I s'pose you think we're lyin'; but it's true. All writin' on two sides!" "What did you do with it then?" demanded Wugs.

December 5. snowed today and school let out at noon. this afternoon went down to the library to plug stewdcats. there was me and Beany and Pewt, and Whacker and Pozzy Chadwick and Pricilla Hobbs.

Suppose you try to sleep for awhile." Porky smiled. "Say, Colonel, that's good of you!" he said. "We are done up a bit, aren't we, Beany?" Beany did not reply. He was sound asleep, sitting bolt upright on his locker. "Hello there, young fellows," the Colonel said cheerily twelve hours later. "How do you feel after your little nap? Think you could eat a little something?"

"No joke at all!" said Porky bitterly. "Oh, gee; now some one else has it!" "Why, you don't mean that you really meant it?" said the Colonel. "I wish you had made it clear!" "We couldn't have tried harder to make it clear unless we had hit you, Colonel," said Beany sadly. "Well, that's too bad," said the Colonel. "These fellows are just about your age.

He looked at me a minute, and then he up and shied his glass at me. It was a big heavy glass, but he was a little full as usual, and didn't aim very well." "It took him on the side of the head, just the same," said Beany. "Well, anyhow," continued Porky, "he looked at me and he said, 'When you speak to me say Sir or next time I'll kill you." Porky grinned. "He looked as though he meant it, too."
