"Look," said Tim, worriedly, "there's been something worrying me ever since we took these shots yesterday. Now I know what it is. Let's get out of here and I'll buy you a drink."

"Shhhhhh!" insisted Hammer.

"Stop it," returned Woodart.

"Make notes," said Hammer. "I want to see these rushes to the close."

"But—"

"But nothing. Tell me later."

"Let's go," said Tim plaintively.

"It'll only be a minute. What are you worrying about?"

"No!" yelled Woodart.
