The Lion of Petra

CHAPTER IX
1/12


"I Think We've Got the Lion of Petra on the Hip!" Grim is one of those fellows who tell you their principles as grudgingly as they let out facts.

He would make the poorest sort of propagandist or politician, for he doesn't advertise, and hates long arguments.

What he knows he knows is so because it works; and he proceeds to put it to work.
Nor is he much of a teacher.

He takes people as he finds them and adapts his plans accordingly.

So it is only from observation extended over a considerable period in all sorts of circumstances that I can say I believe his first and underlying principle is to look for the positive, concrete usefulness in any one with whom he is associated, whether friend or enemy.
