You take it upstairs to your own room and work in there. You can have the oil-heater to keep you warm." So that was the arrangement made, and in his own room Albert sat down at the battered old desk, which had been not only his grandfather's but his great-grandfather's property, to concentrate upon the first of the series of stories ordered by the New York magazine.
He sympathized strongly with us in our grief with the cold of the hotel, and when we said that a small oil-heater would take the chill off a large room, he said that he had advised that very thing, but that our host had replied, with proud finality, "I am the landlord."
Nobody can see his dugout from the road, and his oil-heater doesn't make any smoke. That scheme of laying insulated wires on the ground works like a charm. You could walk all over them without noticing them." The young man was opening the door as he spoke, and he broke off suddenly to say: "That's his call ringing now. Would you like to come and talk to him?"
Lucile repeated dreamily. "Oh, yes, the key. Why, that's not any good." "Yes, it is! It is!" "It's in my parka pocket." The next moment Marian was prying the key from a frozen pocket, and the next after that she was dragging Lucile into the cabin. In one corner of the cabin stood a small oil-heater. Above it was a match-box.
