Garments steam and Purt does bubble!"
"Now, Miss Laura," complained the victim, "This is altogether too serious a matter, I assure you, for laughter. What ever shall we do to get home?"

"Guess we'll have to appear on the Lady of the Lake" said Chet.
"My goodness! In this state?" mourned Purt. "Only fawncy!"
"You can't fly home," said Jess. "Somebody is bound to see you."
"Let's take off our shoes, wring out our socks, and put 'em on again, and then walk over to the amusement park," said Chet.
"And if you girls will paddle over we'll treat you to ice cream," added Lance.
"You are trying to bribe us——I see," declared Laura, laughing again.
"Just so," said Lance. "We'll stand treat if you don't tell everybody how we had to jump out of Purt's old boat."
