Hello, Hal, did you talk to your folks about our plan?
gpt
Yes, was the reply;
human
Well, how does it stand?
gpt
His folks won't let him go and my folks won't let me go unless some experienced man goes along with us.
human
Hooray! we win! yelled Cub.

Father thinks it's a peach of an adventure and he's almost as crazy over it as we were last night. He says 'yes' with a capital Y, and he'll go along with us. He says he's been wanting a vacation with some pep in it for quite a while, and this scheme of ours is ninety-nine per cent pep. If you and Bud don't go, father and I are going anyway. So get busy as fast as you can. We're off this afternoon, as early as we can get ready. I've already sent a wireless to Crusoe that we're coming. Good-bye; I'm going to call Bud now. Be over here as soon as you can and help us get ready.
