I'll send a letter home tonight with the news." "Make it a small post card, then, concealed under a postage stamp," counseled Reade dryly. "We've work ahead of us -not writing." "What's the first thing you're going to do?" inquired Hazelton. "The first thing will be to get on the job." "You're going back to the construction force?" "I am." "When?"

He related to Diana his interview with Mr. Merrick on his return home. He was saved.

"Don't you put on no fancy airs with me! Y' git that? For the good and simple reason that I won't stand for 'em!" He chawed on nothing. "I was not aware that I was putting on any fancy airs," answered Mr. Perkins.
