It would only be mine in trust, a sacred heritage that belonged to the lowly of the earth, and I wanted to save it for them. I could see them all at that moment, the roustabouts, the laborers and muckers, the unskilled toilers of the world.
"It was written by Laura Bentley to Susie Sharp, and mentions their having had lunch at the camp of the high school muckers. And this message gives a clear enough idea of where their camp is, too. Laura must have dropped the card in the street, for that's where I found it." "Say, that's a great find!" chuckled Bayliss. "You may wager that it is," grinned Dodge.
"Just load on that white stuff," he explained to the muckers and there was a general rush for the dump. "What did you say that stuff was?" inquired Death Valley Charley, after a hasty look at his specimen; and Keno awaited the answer, breathless. "Why, that's scheelite, Charley," replied Wiley confidentially, "and it runs about sixty per cent tungsten.
Humph! Two tramps, if they wanted to work for a little while, could carry away all the food there is here. What a lot of poor, penniless muckers Prescott and his friends are!" Again Fred studied the lay of the land, then drew off his coat and flung it aside. "Now, to work!" he said to himself gleefully. First of all, he got the food supplies all together.
There was a split last fall, and a new club was formed the Elite Country Club. All the nicest people in town belong to the Elite. Lot of muckers run the Wayside.

Good Lord, it's six o'clock.
They're the Gridley bluebloods -or think they are -and they don't intend to play on any football eleven that is likely to have Dick & Co. and a few other ordinary muckers on it." "Muckers?" repeated Harry Hazelton flaring up. "Cool down, dear chap, do!" urged Darrin, soothingly. "I don't mean to imply that we really are muckers, but that's what some of the classy group evidently consider us."
Then Coach Morton may get an idea of how things are going, and he may see just what he ought to do." "But suppose the muckers all answer the call in force?" inquired Trenholm. "What are we to do then?" "We're to keep out of the squad this year," responded Bayliss promptly.
Go on and fight the muckers and the muck-rakers, and don't let the reporters or the preachers scare you away from doing the one right thing." The newspapers kept within the almost boundless limits of the libel law. Jim had publicity enough, and he did not care to add to it by a libel suit, nor could he bring himself to make a personal attack on any of his pursuers.
"But it'll teach the town, the school authorities, the coach and after this year, that only the prominent fellows in the school should have any voice in athletics. Let the muckers be content with standing behind the side lines and rooting for the real High School crowd." "Shall we put it to a vote?" asked Bayliss, looking about him. "Yes!" answered several promptly.
You see," Frank went on modestly, "I was something of a boxer at the Tech school, and I've had to keep my wits about me with those 'muckers' of the railroad construction gang." "Oh, dear, me!
