Please don't abuse my gods, and I will try to like yours, said Bess, beginning to think the West might be worth seeing, though no Raphael or Angelo had yet appeared there. 'That's a bargain! I do think people ought to see their own country before they go scooting off to foreign parts, as if the new world wasn't worth discovering, began Dan, ready to bury the hatchet.
I have a foggy kind of remembrance of locking my mitten clamps fast onto that rail while the rest of me streamed out in the air like a burgee. Next thing I knew we was scooting back towards Dillaway's, with the sail catching every ounce that was blowing.
"Of course!" cried Will. "I forgot about that. And Prince was once a circus horse, or at least in some show where he had to jump into a tank of water. Prince is a regular hippopotamus when it comes to water. Strange I never thought of that before! "But this solves the ghost mystery, girls. You and the other folks have been frightened by white Prince scooting about the island."
While scooting up the ladder we heard a gun; and another gun. As we made the boat-deck there was another ship barking out six short blasts. The ships of the fleet, when we got to where we could see them, were headed every which way. We could feel our own ship heel over she turned so sharply. Every ship in the fleet was going it right angles, quarter angles, all degrees of angles.
In a moment he was at Frank's side. "Merry," he said, "what I feared has come! The steamer is on fire!" "Where?" "In the hold." Frank remembered the barrels and casks he had seen there. "Then we are liable to go scooting skyward in a hurry!" he said. "It can't take the fire long to reach the petroleum and powder!" In truth, there was a fire in the "Eagle's" hold.
"Well, what's the next thing to do?" asked Ned, when another look about the shed had shown that not the slightest clue was available. "I'm going to do some telephoning," Tom stated. "A big airship like mine can't go scooting around the country without being noticed. And those fellows can't go on forever. They've got to have gasoline and oil, and to get them they'll have to come down.
They were scooting away gloriously, rising and pounding the waves, when Mooka, who did not have to steer and whose restless glance was roving over every bay and hillside, jumped up, her eyes round as lynx's. "Look, Noel, look! There's Megaleep again watching us."
When he pitched, however, Merry whistled the ball over high and wide so that it came into Bart's hands in such a manner that Hodge was in perfect position to throw to second. McCann was scooting down the line. Bart threw to second. Badger covered the sack, took the ball and tagged McCann as the runner was sliding.
With a rounding sweep the destroyer commanded by Dave Darrin turned out of the way of the troopship, then came up close, on the same course, scooting by. "Good old Darry!" Prescott yelled through a megaphone that Greg thrust into his unoccupied hand. For a wonder Dave heard, just as the destroyer darted in at her closest point to the transport. For just an instant Darrin turned to wave his hand.
You saw people, you made their acquaintance, you entered their hearts and took lodgings, sometimes for life. Then the country! You saw that, too, not the poorest part of it, scooting round wherever it is most level, till you pronounce the whole way flat, and are glad to shut your eyes and listen to the engine, rather than have them ache with seeing everything you would never wish to look at!
