Next he went to the little crippled boy who had such big, mournful eyes. “Now I have got across Niagara Falls, and all the people are shouting ‘Hurrah!’” “What’s that?” cried Ted Hoyt, stopping in his stride. “That makes no never mind. The man he is laying for is the feller bossing the dam. Dad don’t care if they change them every two days. He can shift a grudge as fast as they can shift men!”.
