"Oh, we don't believe it all, Yet we must believe a little We b'lieve the water boils When the steam comes from the kittle. "It's dark inside the drum, Yet we hear the drumming well, But that we wished beside the wall We'll never, never tell." "Where did you hear those verses?" Valerie asked. "That's a funny song my brother sings. I made the second verse to fit to-day." "Why, Betty Chase!
Cappy Ricks' eyes sought the ceiling. "What have I done to deserve this?" he demanded of an invisible Presence. "Why am I afflicted thus? Job had his boils; but you and I, Augustus, are covered with a financial rash, bleeding at every pore, and with no relief in sight." "I told you this was a tough one, Cappy.
