Here, lying on a couch, was a man whom the doctor soon identified. He was none other than Mona's patient, Eklan Norbith, the commission's deputy in Calastia. He was a burly, dark-featured fellow; and even though rigid in his plaster cast, he looked competent and formidable. "Ernol," said he in a heavy, domineering voice, "there is no need to state the case to a man of your intelligence.
Out came his electric torch; he trained it on the prisoners. "By God!" he cursed. "You'll not get away, you " And he fumbled with the weapon in his belt. It was one of the boxlike machine guns. Young Ernol hesitated only an instant. Then he dashed forward. The box spat fire.
The man wet his lips, as though with satisfaction at the neatness of his wording. He added in a generous tone: "I will not reprimand Mr. Ernol, because his previous work indicates, as he says, that Alma is an old topic to him. I only wish that he stood as well in certain other studies!"
By their own confession, the commission's chief function is to keep the majority in ignorance, which is said to be the same thing as bliss. This man Ernol and his pitiful rebellion only serve to prove the rule. "In a word, the Capellans have carried the principle of improvement, as opposed to reform, to its logical conclusion. They can go no further." "And why not?" challenged Van Emmon.
And of course none of you will be so unkind as to remind him of what he said." The students rose thoughtfully to their feet, and Ernol passed out with the rest. He had no idea what it was all about, nor the slightest suspicion that his eyes and ears had been used. But the doctor had learned something of enormous value.
This started half the rest to doing the same; and under cover of the noise, Ernol whispered to the man on his right: "No sight of him yet! I'm afraid you showed the drug too soon."
Young Ernol, whose father is in trouble, appears to be a rising young revolutionist. "But Mona to use the name Powart gave his fiancee Billie's surgeon the girl whose life Fort saved she is not so easy to classify. On the earth we would call her occupation a middle-class one; but that remark she made about people being cattle gives me the impression that she is an aristocrat at heart.
In fact, it is more than a custom; the regulations require that any student who is not satisfied with the sincerity of our public school system shall be suspended for the first objection, and for the second shall forfeit all educational rights whatever. "You will readily see for yourselves, then, that it will not be wise for any of you to repeat what Mr. Ernol unconsciously let slip.
Presently the mother mentioned Ernol, the radical; seemingly these people had been privately informed of what Powart was keeping from the workers. Fort commented: "I was really frightened when I heard of it. Why, if that fellow's philosophy is listened to, we all may have to work for a living!" His laughter rang above the rest; then he thought of Mona. "Oh, I say, I quite forgot, I assure you."
It is true that I handed them to one of my comrades; but I shall not tell you which one." "Your time is up," said the man with the silver heart evenly. "Will you tell?" Ernol contented himself with a contemptuous shake of the head. The man of the couch, for the first time conceding young Ernol's presence, now ordered him brought forward.
