Piper: A scout must be able to play a march and a reel on the pipes, to dance the sword-dance, and must wear kilt and Highland dress. Plumber: A scout must be able to make wiped and brazed joints, to cut and fix a window pane, repair a burst pipe, mend a ball or faucet tap, and understand the ordinary hot and cold water system of a house.
"There most generally is a little boy or so in any family that lives in this town." "Oh," said David; and he nodded his head, and he saw a faucet that was nailed to a board. And the faucet was on the end of a pipe which stuck up from the ground near the mortar box. "Why," he said, "there's a faucet, and water will come. I've seen the mortar man get it there." "Yes," said the foreman.
I expect the best plan will be to have you do it yourself. That will give the most satisfaction, I guess." "Joanna! I don't know how." "Yes, you do, Miss Daisy; you'll have the coffee urn, and all you have to do is to turn the faucet, you know; and Sam will wait upon you, and if you want tea poured out he can lift it for you. It'll taste twice as good to all the party if you do it."
"Right here, sir," said the boy, and indicated in the bathroom a special faucet marked "Drinking Water." This startled even Adna so much that it shook a dime out of him. The boy sighed and went away. Kedzie surprised his eye as he left. It plainly found no fault with her. Here in seclusion Mrs. Thropp dared to exclaim at the wonders of modern invention.
About one third of the bulk of the drop of water is made up of independent oxygen and hydrogen atoms interspersed through it, as any liquid is through this piece of blotting paper. And it has, and keeps, by its own attraction, an atmosphere of the gas. Each molecule of water has a thin layer, or skin, of the gas; even as it comes from this faucet.
Their thoughts dripped unceasingly from their tongue's end like water from a leaky faucet. He had never come in contact with a type of men who keep silent unless they have something to say, who think more than they speak. The spinster aunts had been voluble persons, full of small chatter, women of no mental reservations whatever. The young men of his group had not been much different.
"Because," answered Flossie. "Danny Rugg told us to," added Freddle. "He said it was a new kind of faucet." "Now be careful," warned Mr. Tetlow. Often before he had heard pupils say that someone else told them to break certain rules. "Are you sure about this?" he asked. "Yes, sir," said Freddie, eagerly, "Danny told us to do it." "But didn't you know it was forbidden?"
Cobwebs, caught from bush to wet bush, sparkled with jewels; a band of brown sparrows flew away from a dripping faucet, and a black cat, crouching on the crosspieces of the low fence, rose, yawned, and vanished silently. The wall was almost entirely hidden by vines, principally rose vines, which flung long arms in the air.
"I have a plan!" suddenly cried Mark. "What is it?" asked Mr. Henderson. "Can't we bore a hole in the tank, insert a small faucet or tap, and let the gas out that way gradually?" asked the boy. "When we get down we can rescue those in danger of fire, and, later, can repair the break." "The very thing!" exclaimed Mr. Henderson. "I never thought of that! Here, Washington!
For a moment they worked in silence, Rudolph at the stove, Herman at the sink. Then Rudolph washed his hands under the faucet and faced the older man. "How do you know she bought herself that watch," he demanded. Herman eyed him. "Perhaps you gave it to her!" Something like suspicion of Rudolph crept into his eyes. "Me? A hundred-dollar watch!" "How do you know it cost a hundred dollars?"
