For the students were much interested in aviation, and, now that it was known that the army aviators were to come to Kentfield, and that Dick Hamilton, one of the best liked of the cadets, was to have a big airship of his own, many who had said they would never make a flight, were changing their minds. It was one afternoon, about a week following the wrecking of Mr.
"She sure is a fine boat, Dick." "And she can go some, too!" "Glad you like her, fellows," replied Dick Hamilton, to the remarks of his chums, Paul Drew and Innis Beeby, as he turned the wheel of a new motor-boat and sent the craft about in a graceful sweep toward a small dock which connected with a little excursion resort on the Kentfield river. "Like her!
"I'm going to give you a chance to indulge in it right now, and I'm going to profit by your example." "What's doing?" asked Innis, as he straightened the collar of his military blouse, for the three were in the fatigue uniforms of the Kentfield Military Academy, where Dick and his chums attended.
I'll tell your Aunt Samantha that you've at last learned how to do something, even if it is only building an airship." "Don't you call my studies at Kentfield something, Uncle Ezra?" asked Dick. "No sir! No, sir-ee!" cried the elderly man. "That's time and money thrown away.
There was much gay talk and laughter, and, as the afternoon was still young, Dick proposed taking the girls out for a little jaunt in his new craft He had only recently purchased it, and, after using it at Kentfield, he intended taking it with him to a large lake, where he and his father expected to spend the Summer.
Dick rather wished he could have gone in the other machine, for he had no liking for the surly lieutenant with the captain. But Dick had been assigned to this craft, and military rules prevailed at Kentfield. You did as you were told without question. Dick took his place, and watched with interest the operations of Captain Grantly and his lieutenant.
Paul found it easier than he expected, and he said, in spite of her bulk, that the Abaris really steered easier than one of the smaller biplanes they had gotten used to at Kentfield. Back and forth over the fields, meadows and woods in the vicinity of Hamilton Corners the airship was taken, in charge of first one and then another of the party aboard.

Dick had met Larry while in New York, and Larry had profited by the acquaintanceship by getting a "beat," or exclusive story, about the young millionaire. On the return of Dick and his cadet chums from a trip to California, the rich youth had again taken up his studies at Kentfield.
Dick had rather a hard time at Kentfield at first for he had to get over the handicap of being a millionaire. But how he did it you may read, and, I trust, enjoy. In "Dick Hamilton's Steam Yacht; Or, A Young Millionaire and the Kidnappers," Dick got into a "peck of trouble," to quote his chum, Innis Beeby.
