went up on the porch and rang the door
bell while the third remained at the foot
of the porch steps. armed with "soaker
and on the watch TO hurl it at the proper
time. The lady OF the house responded

the rascal with the soaker" let fly, strik-
ing her on the forehead over the right eye,
narrowly escaping her spectacles, the
