"They don't seem awfully cheerful here," Polly said, when she and Lois were alone for a minute. "I wonder what's the matter?" "Doris Bates, you know, the girl who plays forward, told me she had a terrible sore throat," Lois replied. "Perhaps she's given it to the rest." "I have an idea they'll use their subs," Polly said. "If they do " She let Lois finish the remainder of the sentence for herself.
Brownell studied the diagram and nodded. "Right. We can have it set up in twenty-four hours." As Brownell left the office, the telephone jangled. Tom reached for it. "Admiral Walter calling." His voice was tense. "Important news, Tom. One of our subs has picked up a clue that someone has been operating in the missile search area." "What sort of clue, sir?" Tom asked.
Hunnicott sprang up and slapped his leg. "By Jupiter, Kent! They are selling every last man of them!" "Precisely. And when they have sold all they have to sell?" "They'll turn us loose drop us quit booming the town, if your theory is the right one. But say, Kent, I can't believe it, you know. It's too big a thing to be credited to Jim Guilford and his handful of subs in the railroad office.
But we may see plenty of real work At least, we need not suppose that the Kennebunk will run away from any enemy submarine that may appear along this coast." "Do you believe there are German subs over here again, sir?" "It is my private opinion that at least one is here and more are coming," declared Ensign MacMasters.

Truscott received two or three letters from the East, which were not handed her until the self-appointed postmistress had scrutinized the superscriptions; so, too, she inspected the bills and billets that came to the young subs, and two letters for Miss Sanford, one from New York, the other, addressed in a bold, vigorous hand, was from Headquarters, Division of the Missouri, Chicago.
Under such circumstances, cross channel traffic and the maintenance of our lines of communication would have proved to be a very difficult matter indeed, for the subs would then, at any time, have easy access to our channel path. The importance of the Canadian fight during that first twenty-four hours was out of all ratio to the size of our forces.

"And we could do even that, if we had Prescott and Holmesy here," thought Douglass, with sinking heart to himself. He was careful not to repeat that sentiment audibly.

Wassef was in an ill-humour: first, because the day had been so hot; secondly, because he had sold his ten-months' camel at a price almost within the bounds of honesty; and thirdly, because a score of railway contractors and subs. were camped outside the town. Also, Soada had scarcely spoken to him for three days past.
