Here, I'll drink with you, and then I'll smoke a cigar with Moss. If you are going to be men you want to start right in. Eh, Rockley?" "That's right, Lew," answered Rockley, as he lit a fresh cigar. "What you need is another glass, Davis," came from Pender. "It will act as a bracer. Just try it and see." "I I don't want to get get " faltered Davis. "Get what?" "Intoxicated really I don't "
"I imagine he really intends to turn over a new leaf," said Dick to Tom and Sam, a little later. "Hope he does," replied Tom. "So do I," added Sam. Let me add a few words more and then bring this story of life in camp to a conclusion. On the day following Dick's return to camp Captain Putnam summoned Lew Flapp, Pender, Rockley, and Jackson before him.
"Say, fellows, Moss and Davis are getting out of the window!" cried Flapp, in astonishment. "That's the way Rover and Powell must have gotten in," came from Pender. "Exactly," answered Dick, "and that proves we didn't have to stop below for liquor," he added triumphantly. "Look here, I don't mean to let those fellows go yet," blustered Lew Flapp. "Let me get at them." "Not to-night, Flapp."
They found Harry Moss and Joe Davis walking slowly toward Putnam Hall. Joe seemed to feel all right now that he was out in the fresh evening air, but Harry complained of a strange sickness at the stomach. "It was horrid of Lew Flapp to make us drink," said the young cadet. "I told him I didn't want anything stronger than soda. But he and Pender made me take it."
After this came several other contests, in each of which the crowd pitted against the Flapp faction won. This made Lew Flapp, Rockley, Pender, Jackson and a number of others feel very sore. "We must win something," cried Pender fiercely. "If we don't we'll be the laughing stock of the whole academy." At last came the half mile race for which Sam had entered.
"I know that hill," Paul observed, as if talking to himself; "it's just this side of the mill pond. That means the car is coming this way. The two gentlemen are separating themselves from their dear friend, Solus Smithers. Why, I wonder? Would Mr. Pender have anything to do with it?"
Why had it Hagen now had to regard the strange, walking enigma as neuter after functioning to some extent as a human, reverted suddenly to what seemed to be its natural state? He conceded that if he knew the answer to that one, he could be of great service to the FBI and the nation and, no doubt to the world ... Pender of the Army now had a question.
"Oh dear, no; not alone." "You will take a companion with good nerves, and reliable in case of disaster, won't you?" "I shall bring two companions," the doctor said. "Ah, that's better. I feel easier. I am sure you must have among your acquaintances men who " "I shall not think of bringing men, Mr. Pender." The other looked up sharply. "No, or women either; or children." "I don't understand.
"Well, that is one more we owe that crowd," observed Flapp with increased bitterness. When Jackson was dressed he and Flapp took themselves to another part of the camp, and there met Pender, Rockley, and Ben Hurdy. "Let us take a walk," said Jackson. "I am sick of staying around where the others can stare at me." "Come with me," put in Pender. "I have found something I want to show you."
And, since his motive was pure and his soul fearless, they could not work him harm. Thus he stood in the main stream of evil unwittingly attracted by Pender, deflecting its course upon himself; and after passing through the purifying filter of his own unselfishness these energies could only add to his store of experience, of knowledge, and therefore of power.
