Where are you going at such a headlong gait?" "Up to see the boys. I've got a bottle of wine and some some pickles, you know. I'm going to make them let me dine with them to-night. Coming back, Billie?" "Why, no, I don't expect to." He moved then accidentally in front of the light that sifted through the dull, gray panes of a little window. "Oh, cracky!" cried the girl; "how fine you are, Billie!
Lightning always does strike barns, doesn't it?" With a philosophy beyond his years Montgomery changed the subject. "I shall have to boost you, i-i-if you c-c-can't climb without. P-p-put your feet right th-th-there I'm b-bo-boo-boostin' my best! Catch hold the s-sill! Cracky! Up you g-g-go!"
"Then why don't other vessels have them coming aboard?" he said. "How do you account for that?" "In a way though sometimes it seems cracky I think I can, according to my idea," I answered. "How?" he inquired again. "Why, I believe that this ship is open, as I've told you exposed, unprotected, or whatever you like to call it.
"I ain't sayin' you're not a brisk lot, you youngsters, because you are, and no denyin'. All I'm sayin' is you're in a peck of trouble that's all." Then he didn't say anything only looked straight ahead out of the window and kept on smoking. Gee, I felt awful funny. Then I said if we did anything that wasn't right, cracky, we didn't mean it anyway, that was sure, and we'd do whatever he said.
"I'll bet say, fellows, look at those big jack rabbits, and there's a fox, and look at the birds. It's a forest fire all right, or those animals wouldn't be running out in the open like that and streaking it for the lake. Cracky what'll we do? I Hi, Bruce, what's getting you, you're as pale as a ghost?"
Ellsworth thought it would be cheaper to take our little three horse power engine out of our launch and install it in the houseboat. I said, "That would be all right, only it would kick us along so slow that we'd spend all our vacation on the trip and wouldn't have any time at camp." Cracky; I didn't want to start back as soon as we got there.
Without waiting for permission, the jovial Irishman at once began: "Oh! it's 'baccy as is my chief joy, At mornin', noon and night; An' it's verily my belief, boy, That I love it with all my might. If your liver an' lungs are squeakin', An' your head is growin' cracky, There's nothin' so sure to kill or cure, As fumes o' the strongest 'baccy."
"Boys out of trouble are like fish out of water. So my dad says. And he ought to know," he grinned. "He has twins." Tommy considered, however, that he had got out of a bad box pretty easily. "Your Uncle Dick is fine, Betty," he observed. "Think of his getting on the blind side of Major Pater so easy. But cracky! how that snow did squash all over him," and he ended with a wicked giggle.
I landed here from a motor boat with wireless outfit. Lake thieves stole my boat and left me here with outfit and little food. Will starve in few days if I don't get help. My call is V A X." "Cracky!" exclaimed Bud excitedly. "Isn't that a thriller! He's an amateur and in trouble. We're in honor bound to help him." "How?" demanded Cub derisively.
"Well, I dunno about that," answered Tim Reardon; "but of course the patrioticker you are, why, the sooner you begin. It's the Fourth of July the minute the clock strikes twelve and, cracky, won't we make a racket then? Henry Burns, he's got a cannon; and so's Jack Harvey and Tom Harris and Bob White, and the Warren fellers they've got three, and a lot of other fellers have got 'em.
