Roy Blakeley's Motor Caravan Read online

"And there is no pie here?" Brent said.

  "A pie is a government mark," Tom said; "it means the government ownsthe land to that point--where the pie is. See?"

  Oh, boy, Harry didn't say a word. None of the rest of us said aword--only Brent.

  He said, "Then I have been deceived by a scarecrow! This ends my questof adventure; I am through. I am going home and to the only refuge wherereal adventure can be found--the movies. I am through with the boyscouts. Perhaps with William S. Hart or Douglas Fairbanks I can find thelife I crave. There I can find cliffs to jump off, roofs to leap from,people to kill who are worthy of being killed--not scarecrows----"

  "And floods to get caught in!" Pee-wee yelled.

  Brent said, "Yes, and jails to escape from----"

  "And ships to get wrecked in!" the kid shouted.

  "I know all about the movies I'll go with you! I'll go with you----"

  Gee whiz, but that kid is a scream.
