Rogers imagined that O.T.C. work would shortly become more important and more popular than football; he saw himself taking the position once held by Buller. On the strength of this alluring prospect he bought a new uniform. For the first few days life was entertainingly disorganised. The time-table worked out all wrong.

All Peel's letters are very sensible.

Anderson Crow was the first to distinguish the form of the speaker, and he was not long in deciding that it was far from ghost-like. With a word of command he brought his disorganised forces out of chaos and huddled them together as if to resist attack. "What's the matter with you?" he demanded, addressing his men in a loud tone.
