Cracky, I felt awful sorry for him. First I bored a hole in the coin and hung it around Skinny's neck. He was all excited and said, "Now I've got a regular merit badge, ain't I?" I said, "No you haven't, but it's a good badge, all right" Then I said, "Now I'm going to tell you some things about merit badges. You get merit badge because you're able to do special things, see?
Losely should have been thinking of what your flash sporting gents call a harmless spree, and my sister's son should, being cracky, construe into something criminal. Oh, Mrs. Crane, do go and see Mr. Losely, and tell him that Samuel Dolly is not safe, is not safe!" "Much better that I should go to your nephew," said Mrs. Crane; "and with your leave I will do so at once. Let me see him alone.
It was one of the great Kadiak bears, which are the biggest of all the world. "Cracky!" said Jesse; "he looks pretty big to me. Do you suppose he'll find us here in the house?" Rob, the oldest of the three, who had been on one or two hunts with his father, looked serious as he watched this giant animal advancing down the hill-side with its long, reaching stride. Suddenly he uttered an exclamation.
Oh, cracky, I was thankful for that tide I I knew it would keep on coming when it once started 'cause the tide never goes back on you. Of course it goes back, but you know what I mean. Sometimes if you're on a hike and telling time by the sun it'll go under a cloud. Or sometimes if you're lost and following the stars, it'll cloud up and you can't see them any more.
A fine, canty, friendly, cracky man, that suffered with the stomach, poor body! and was real ta'en up about the goodbrother. O man, David, try and learn to have some kind of intelligence!" "I'll try, Alan," said I. "And now for him of the red head," says he; "was he gaun fast or slow?" "Betwixt and between," said I. "No kind of a hurry about the man?" he asked.
When did he write to you last, Cracky?" "He wrote from Palermo a most jolly letter from him and Kew. He hasn't touched a card for nine months; is going to give up play. So is Frank, too, grown quite a good boy. So will you, too, Butts, you old miscreant, repent of your sins, pay your debts, and do something handsome for that poor deluded milliner in Albany Street.
"Why, he could dress 'em up in coats of mail, like the old knights used to wear, and turn 'em loose against the Germans. Think of a regiment of elephants, wearin' armor plates like a battleship, carryin' on their backs a lot of soldiers with machine guns and chargin' against Fritz! Cracky, that would be a sight!" "I should say so!" agreed Ned, with a laugh.
"Ever been up in an airplane?" he said. "Cracky, I'd like to," I told him. "I went from Paris to the Channel in an airplane," he said. Then he gave me a crack on the back and he put his arm around my shoulder awful nice and friendly like, and it made me kind of proud because I knew him. "Now, you listen here," he said, "I'm in a dickens of a fix. You live in Bridgeboro; do you know Jake Holden?"
But there was only one event to be discussed, and that was on the lips of every individual in town. "By Jove, I called him a coward," said Bud Weir. "But if there's a fellow among us who has as much sand as he had I I -well, by cracky, there isn't any." "Well," said Bruce thoughtfully.
Cracky, the way he stared, if I'd had the badge, I'd have torn it off my arm and handed it to him, honest I would. Mr. Ellsworth just looked at him and said, "No, you may not have the badge. Before you can have the badge for swimming you must be a better scout. You must learn to be obedient. You heard one of your patrol tell you not to go under water.
