Who thought of it?” he asked after examining the plot.,"I thought maybe you meant 'em fer a couple of trees, Bill.",“This is the plan. You go back home and say you are sick of engineering—that riding range is good enough for you. If you do that your father will be likely to take you back, won’t he?”，Bob and Jerry were happy.
