"I check you to nineteen decimals," and the two were soon attacking the savory Ganymedean goulash which Nadia had put in the cooker many hours before. "Should we both go to sleep, Steve, or should one of us watch it?" "Sleep, by all means.
Late to-night Atkinson's foot was examined: it is bad and there's no possibility of its getting right for some days. He must be left behind I've decided to leave Crean with him. Most luckily we now have an extra tent and cooker. How the ponies are to be led is very doubtful. Well, we must do the best that circumstances permit. Poor Atkinson is in very low spirits.
That's one of the things you must always look for when camping, remember." Nothing pleased the scouts better than the prospect of stopping, and starting supper, for they were tired, and hungry in the bargain. "If we didn't want to eat these fowls right away," Tom remarked, "I'd suggest that we bake them in a hot oven made in the ground. That's the original cooker, you know.
A wave of Jo's hand and they understood the noon had come. When they were in camp, and the teams had been fed and watered from the great tank wagon, and Jerkline Jo, with the able help of Twitter-or-Tweet, had made ready the steaming meal, there arose loud praise of the girl's idea concerning the fireless cooker. "By golly, Jo, this here's grub!" applauded Jim McAllen. "Some scheme, ol'-timer!"
Armed with this document, I started out in company of a staff officer, who was to guide me to the Brigade headquarters.

"C" Company cooker again took first prize in the Division, and the Battalion secured the second place for the total number of marks gained. The days spent in this sector were comparatively pleasant. The front had been quiet, and although the work was arduous casualties were few, and leave was regular.
The ingenious labor-saving devices, like the breadmixer, the fireless cooker, the vacuum cleaner, and the electric iron, the propagation of scientific knowledge in the rearing of children, and wider outlets for outside interests, will tend to make domestic life an exact science, a profession as important and attractive as any other.
I went next, sliding down the rope, and Worsley, who was the lightest and most nimble member of the party, came last. At the bottom of the fall we were able to stand again on dry land. The rope could not be recovered. We had flung down the adze from the top of the fall and also the logbook and the cooker wrapped in one of our blouses.
"I've resolved that on this job we're going to live like people who are permanently situated. That chest there is a fireless cooker. My own scheme. In it now vegetables and a beef roast are cooking, and they'll be ready by noon. I mean to make biscuits and bread and cakes and pies in my oil-stove oven, which is a dandy. I can arrange to do all that on the smoothest portions of the road.
