This morning he took the collie along when he went out to release the tiny flock from their barnyard fold and send them out to graze. Link opened the fold gate, one hand on Chum's collar. Out billowed the sheep in a ragged scramble. Chum quivered with excitement as the woolly catapults surged past him. Eagerly he looked up into his master's face, then back at the tumbling creatures.
By afternoon we ought to be near the spot where Captain Mawson jettisoned the meteorite and then we'll begin to get busy, weather or no weather!" "I hope the thing will be worth all our trouble," said Ned a bit crossly. "Perhaps we won't even be able to find it. What then?" "You're just suffering from a touch of 'mal de mer'!" teased Tom, refusing to consider his chum's gloomy remarks.
Frank knew what a terrific load was on his chum's mind, and how he thrilled with suspense, now that they were so near the realization of his highest hopes or worst fears. And so he too set to work to remove the jaguar skin, for it would make a pretty decent rug, if it could be properly preserved. Morning was just breaking as they sat down to partake of the simple meal.
Like when we burned some feathers under the church when they were having prayer meeting." "Don't speak so loud," cautioned Bob. "You'll give things away." Thus admonished, Ted took a position well to his chum's rear. Meanwhile Bob continued on and was soon at the grocery store. "Good-afternoon, Mr. Hodge," he said politely. "Arternoon," replied Mr.
You know, as well as I do, that the Naval Academy is at Annapolis. There's a vacancy ahead for Annapolis, too." "Oho! You've been thinking of that?" demanded Dick, again looking into his chum's eyes. "Yes." "Yes; if I can come out best in a competitive examination of the boys of this district." "Two secrets, then -yours and mine," grinned Prescott. "However, it'll be easier for you." "Why?"
Dave Darrin did not by any means approve his chum's conduct of the night before, but Dave was on hand as second, just the same, and earnestly hoping that Dan might get at least his share of the honors in the event that was now to be "pulled off." "Gentlemen," began Mr. Ferris, in the monotonous way of referees, "this fight is to be to a finish, without gloves. Hand-shaking will be dispensed with.
Then he turned once more to take up the tracks that he had been forced to forego on the previous night. It was not long before the boy rediscovered the trail, and with a thousand misgivings for the unavoidable delay in going to his chum's assistance he started on the track at a rapid pace.
Hal lowered Chester to the ground and put both hands under his chum's head. He motioned one of the French soldiers to take Chester's feet, and in this manner they carried Chester from the danger zone. Hal did not rest easily until after a French surgeon had pronounced Chester little the worse for his experience. Two bayonet wounds in the lad's arm were found to be mere scratches.
"How did you manage it?" asked Jack an hour or so later when Sam had entered his chum's apartment, matters having quieted down. "It was too easy," explained Sam. "I did up the bell, and left it with Socrat. I purposely addressed it double. I figured out what would happen. Then I sent a fake note to Bagot, telling him Socrat wanted him. It came out better than I expected."
Shortly afterward, and one by one, the battered Yankee planes dropped on the open field where the hangars lay, like huge buzzards alighting to satisfy their hunger in an orgy. The first thing Tom did when he and Jack found themselves again on their feet and the waiting mechanics and hostlers looking after their plane, was to reach out and seize upon his chum's hand.
