At the Travelers' Friend. Entrance Free." "They're going to play after all," commented the blacksmith's wife. "I don't see much harm in 'Hamlet," said the supervisor's yokemate. "It certainly ain't frivolous." "Let's go to 'The Honeymoon'?" suggested an amorous carl to his slip-slop Sal. "Go 'long!" she retorted with barn-yard bashfulness.
After all, the man is a forest officer, and you are the Supervisor's daughter." She made no further protest, but busied herself closing the panniers and putting away the camp utensils. She seemed to recognize that his judgment was sound. It was after three when they left the tent and started down the trail, carrying nothing but a few toilet articles. He stopped at the edge of the clearing.
As it is, one has to use the greatest imagination in translating the figures in a State treasurer's or county supervisor's report, back into the little plots that gathered into the soil of their acres the noblest purposes that ever animated a nation these spots where one generation made its unselfish prayer and sacrifice for the next.
And so I give Lusk another chanct." Dorothy stepped to Shoop's chair, and, stooping quickly, kissed his cheek. Bondsman, not to be outdone, leaped jealously into Bud's lap and licked the supervisor's face. Shoop spluttered, and thrust Bondsman down. "Things is comin' too fast!" he cried, wiping his face.
Wayland was sure of this a few steps farther on, when the Supervisor's horse went down in a small bog-hole, and Berrie's pony escaped only by the most desperate plunging. The girl laughed, but Wayland was appalled and stood transfixed watching McFarlane as he calmly extricated himself from the saddle of the fallen horse and chirped for him to rise.
He got out the Supervisor's horse, and as the latter swung himself into the saddle, he said: "What time to-morrow, Mr. Merritt?" "Eleven, sharp," was the reply. "So long." Wilbur looked after him as he rode away. "That means starting by daybreak," he said aloud. "Well, I don't think I'm going to suffer from sleeping sickness on this job, anyway."
"Yes; the Supervisor's office is here, and these are his help." This information added to Norcross's interest and cheered him a little. He knew something of the Forest Service, and had been told that many of the rangers were college men. He resolved to make their acquaintance. "If I'm to stay here they will help me endure the exile," he said.
Thorne took advantage of this both to get evidence, and to secure information that enabled him to frighten evidence out of others. The vouchers arrived from Washington. In them Plant's methods showed clearly. Thorne early learned that it had been the Supervisor's habit to obtain duplicate bills for everything purchases, livery, hotels and the like.
The older man took a seat with quiet dignity. "Seems like a mighty fine chance, don't it? I've always wanted to see the Coast. When do you plan for to pull out?" Wayland was not deceived by the Supervisor's casual tone; there was something ominously calm in his manner, something which expressed an almost dangerous interest in the subject. "I haven't decided to go at all.
But here we are at the supervisor's office. I'll run in and get the license, if you'll wait a moment." Saint-Prosper assented, and Barnes disappeared through the door of a one-story wooden building which boasted little in its architectural appearance and whose principal decorations consisted of a small window-garden containing faded geraniums, and a sign with sundry inverted letters.
