This drafting business makes me sick! I don't like it at all!
gpt
Maybe you'd rather have been passed over,
human
Naw, you get me wrong! was the answer.
gpt
I want to fight all right, but I want to do it my own way. I'd have enlisted in the air service if they'd given me time enough. I was thinking of it when the draft law went into effect, and then I couldn't. I know a lot about airships. I used to run one, and I invented one, too.

Did it fly?
gpt
It would have if it hadn't been for some mean fellows in my town who didn't want me to beat them, was the announcement.
human
You wait until I get on the other side! I'll show 'em what flying is, if they give me the chance, and Jerry Hopkins and his pals sha'n't stop me, either!
gpt
Did you hear that?
human
I should say so! exclaimed Bob.
gpt
We ought to know who that is.
human
Noddy Nixon, without a doubt! remarked Jerry.
gpt
And up to his old tricks! I hope he isn't going on the same transport with us!
