“Yes,” replied the Curlytops’ father, and told about the proposed trip.
Mr. Jenk went back home, and then the Curlytops talked of their coming outing in the woods. Trouble found the pail and shovel with which he had been playing the day before and started for the garden.
“Where are you going?” asked his mother.
“I go dig more worms,” he answered. “I got to have a lot of worms to fish with.”
“Where are you going fishing?” Ted wanted to know.
“I fish in lake up by daddy’s lumber camp,” was the reply. “Daddy, he say there’s lake.”
“Yes, there is,” said Mrs. Martin, in answer to looks from Ted and Janet. “There is also a river, I believe, down which logs are floated. But you’ll see all this when we go to Mount Major.”
“When are we going?” asked Ted.
“And how?” Janet wanted to know. “In the train?”
“I think we are going by auto the end of this week,” answered Mrs. Martin, for after the search for the crow Mr. Martin had gone back to his store to meet the fire insurance agents.
