height or again descending low, we could not
escape them. Mountains were ahead; where
we were or what under us we did not

over. Summer holidays just around the corner.
There are among ourselves endless practical
jokes, all more or less exciting, part Of that
thrill which must be continuous. One of them,
however. OF those can recall, might scarcely
