“It seems to me that you fellows hit on a really excellent plan to occupy your time during the summer. Who thought of it?” he asked after examining the plot. A nail was driven in the wall near the one that held the big silver watch, and the Christmas present was hung on it at once in plain sight. At the very depth of the Canyon Bob suddenly realized what the Reclamation Service had to contend with. It was places like this which needed feats of engineering skill to let people even get near to them, that the Service had to contend with. Nature was the Service’s foe. Its task was to subjugate her to its own ends. Of course this Canyon was too big; the desert land was too far away for any irrigation project to be thought of..

“Please excuse me about the boat-hook,” and a small brown hand was stretched out and laid in the merchant’s hand. “Know anything else?” demanded the Chief as the engine rocked crazily on the narrow gauge track, and when Bob shook his head, asked, “How did you get over?” “I guess you know very well I won’t be bored. Go ahead.” One thing only served to disturb his perfect enjoyment: This was a conviction not to be denied, that his father was hurt by his action.
