Hold the sneak!" called Dave, arriving on a run and leaping into the car.

"Now, Ripley, hang you, do some quick and honest work!" "Kick that dog out of the car first," pleaded Fred.
"I won't," Darrin retorted.

"The dog is my guarantee for your good behavior to-night." As soon as might be they ran around the lower end of the lake, then raced for the hotel.
There Dr.Bentley was aroused.

While he was dressing he sent a bell-boy to order his own big car.
Just when Ripley vanished from the scene no one about the grounds or the hotel seemed to know or care.
Dr.Bentley, dressed in record time, came down.
"Now, we'll drive fast, Darrin," the doctor announced, as he dropped his bag into the car and seated himself at the wheel.

"Struck by lightning, did you say?
It was a fearful storm, but it is stopping now." Ere they reached the camp the stars were out.
