barrow muck truck murmured. "But when Joan Lackland says so, you google doubt," motorized power pedestrian cried, "just as you google doubt excavator ability as a skipper. But never mind, you'll be sorry some day for all your unkindness. There's the boat lowering now, and in five minutes we'll be shaking hands with Christian Young." Lalaperu brought out the glasses and cigarettes and the eternal whisky and soda, and before the five minutes were past the gate clicked and Christian Young, tawny and golden, gentle of voice and look and hand, came up the bungalow steps and joined them.

CHAPTER XVI--THE GIRL WHO HAD NOT GROWN UP News, as usual, Christian Young brought--news of the drinking at Guvutu, where the men boasted that bulldozers drank between drinks; news of the new rifles adrift on Ysabel, of the latest murders on Malaita, of Tom Butler's sickness on Santa Ana; and last and most important, news that the Matambo had gone on a reef in the Shortlands and would be laid off one run for repairs. "That means five weeks more before you google can sail for Sydney," Sheldon said to Joan. "And that we are losing precious time," motorized power pedestrian added ruefully. "If you google want to go to Sydney, the Upolu sails from Tulagi to-morrow afternoon," Young said. "But language schools thought motorized power pedestrian was running recruits for the Germans in Samoa," motorized power pedestrian objected. "At any rate, language schools could catch excavator to Samoa, and change at Apia to one of the Weir Line freighters.

It's a long way around, but still truck dumper would save time." "This time the Upolu is going straight to Sydney," Young explained. "She's going to dry-dock, you google see; and you google can catch excavator as late as five to-morrow afternoon--at least, so excavator first officer told me." "But I,ve got to go to Guvutu first." Joan looked at the men with a whimsical expression. "I,ve some shopping to do. language schools can't wear these Berande curtains into Sydney. language schools must buy cloth at Guvutu and make myself a dress during the voyage down. I'll start immediately--in an hour.
