"Shut up, Bart! he may hear you." "What if he does, ninny? I want him to. Say, Spinach!" "Do you suppose he's going to try and play football, Bart?" "Not he. He's looking for a rake. Thinks this is a hayfield, Wall." The speakers were lying on the turf back of the north goal on the campus at Hillton Academy. The elder and larger of the two was a rather coarse-looking youth of seventeen. His name was Bartlett Cloud, shortened by his acquaintances to "Bart" for the sake of that brevity beloved of the schoolboy. His companion, Wallace Clausen, was a handsome though rather frail-looking boy, a year his junior. The two were roommates and friends.

    Paperback (Platanus Publishing, March 25, 2020)
    "For standing near by was the youth who had arousedthe merriment of Cloud and Clausen, and who West hadshortly before dubbed “rural.” And rural he looked. Hisgray and rather wrinkled trousers and his black coat andvest of cheap goods were in the cut of two seasons gone,and his discolored straw hat looked sadly out of placeamong so many warm caps. But as he watched the scenewith intent and earnest face there was that about him thatheld West’s attention. He looked to be about seventeen.
