The following night, just as Bob was about to turn in, Ted Hoyt knocked at his door. Evidently Ted had come in a hurry, for he was covered with dust and was breathing hard. “You must remember I got the boat-hook,” urged Johnny.

Why should any one want that? “Need you—quick—over at the east spillway—wall giving way—” But faster than the words could tremble out, the Chief was acting. You will find you need some others,.
