From the men with whom he came into contact, Bob Hazard realized that his boss was rapidly becoming very popular. Every one was singing his praises and the general feeling was that the work was going ahead at a pace never equalled under the preceding engineers. All this was pleasing to the boy who had idolized the man, and helped him to be content with the work at which he had been placed. “You won’t need to take a bath after this. If you don’t have about five unexpected ones during the day I miss my guess.” “You bet,” was the heartfelt answer. “I thought you were a goner sure. But where is the boat?”.

The bunkhouses seemed deserted. If there were any Mexicans inside they were doing their best to play dead. The crowd seemed to think that the laborers were the ones who had started the trouble and they were shouting, daring the Greasers to come out and start something. But there was no answer from the inside. “Oh, well, I am not the worst. I’m not one of the best either, but I’m not the worst, really.” “I don’t know,” hesitated the other after a pause. “I reckon it’s mighty kiddish of me but—but I just can’t help it.” Wasn’t there something else he could sell so that Grandmother should see the ocean and everything again?
