"Then don't you come any nearer if you don't want to get wet," said Bert. "This hose might sprinkle you by accident, the same as it did when Freddie had it," he added.

Either/Or, passage 69

"There's no danger," he said. "Please keep your seats. A circus train that was running ahead of us got off the track, and some of the animals are loose. Our train nearly ran into an elephant, and that's why the engineer had to stop so suddenly. We will go on soon."

Either/Or, passage 286

"Oh, I am eh?" cried Danny. "I'll show you what I'm trying to do. I'll tell on you for keeping a dog that don't belong to you, and you'll be arrested--all of you."

Either/Or, passage 678

Danny had nothing to reply to this. Thrusting the button in his pocket he walked off. Bert was sure he had found the boy who had taken the ice cream.

Either/Or, passage 246

"And while you are about it," suggested Mrs. Bobbsey, who was on the front porch, "I wish, Richard, that you would see if you can locate that fat lady, and get back the children's silver cup."

Either/Or, passage 199

"Well, I declare!" exclaimed the autoist, as his engine stopped. "If it isn't the Bobbsey family--twins and all! What are you doing here, Mr. Bobbsey?"

Either/Or, passage 386

"Sure, we'll let you girls ride once in a while," said Charley, as he caught up to his chum. "But you can't steer."

Either/Or, passage 859

A little later the fire was practically out, but one engine continued to throw water on the smouldering sparks. The crowd began to leave now, for there was nothing more to see, and it was cold.

Either/Or, passage 733

"Come on with us," said Jim, who was a new boy in school. "Danny Rugg and some of the rest of us are going to have some sport."

Either/Or, passage 494

"If there are any real snakes," said Freddie, "he'll scare them away. But I guess there aren't any."

Either/Or, passage 884

"Danny, I am very sorry to learn this," said Mr. Rugg. "I did not know that you smoked--a boy of your age!"

Either/Or, passage 783

"Go ahead, if you want to come in last!" sneered Danny, as he got his sled in place "I'll tell 'em you're coming, Bert."

Either/Or, passage 413

"I'll do it," offered Bert, and as he and Charley had often pasted paper on their kite frames they had better luck, and soon the hoop was ready.

Either/Or, passage 154

"He won't hurt her!" declared Bert. "That's a good dog, anyone can tell that. Here, doggie; come here!" he called.

Either/Or, passage 522

As it happened, Flossie and Freddie were not at school that day, Freddie having a slight sore throat. His mother kept him home, and Flossie would not go without him. So they did not hear the warning, and Bert and Nan did not think to tell the smaller children of it.

Either/Or, passage 874

"What caused the fire?" asked Mrs. Bobbsey of her husband, when the children had gone to bed again.

Either/Or, passage 834

Another engine dashed by the Bobbsey house, and the ringing of the alarm bell increased. The voices and footsteps of many persons, as they rushed on to the blaze, could also be heard, and there resounded the cry of:

Either/Or, passage 418

"Let's make a lot of 'em, and have a circus with Snap, and charge money to see him, and then we can buy a lot of ice cream for our party!" said Freddie.

Either/Or, passage 12

"It's about an hour yet," he said to Nan, and she sighed. Really she was more tired than she cared to let her mother know.

Either/Or, passage 903

Mr. Bobbsey was rather surprised to see his three children come into the office, but he was glad to meet them, for it made a break in his day's work. After a little thought he said they might go to the railroad office to inquire about Snoop. Nan and her brother and sister went in a trolley car, and were soon at the depot.

Either/Or, passage 122

"But there never could be another Snoop," cried Flossie. "Could there, Freddie? And we _could_ get another silver cup."

Either/Or, passage 818

And that is what Danny did when he picked himself up, and walked down to meet Bert, whose bob got safely to the foot of the hill, and so won the race.

Either/Or, passage 554

"Well, I'm coming to that party all the same!" insisted Danny, with a grin on his freckled face.

Either/Or, passage 270

"For," said Grace Lavine, with whom Nan sometimes played, "school will soon begin, and we want to have all the fun we can until then."

Either/Or, passage 780

The bob of Bert and Charley was built just the same, but it was painted in home-made fashion, and the carpet seat was an old and faded one. But it had a new gong and a fine big steering wheel.

Either/Or, passage 142

"Don't scare the children, Bert," said Mr. Bobbsey, a bit sternly. "Did you really hear something?"

Either/Or, passage 687

"Oh, Bert!" exclaimed his mother, when he came home after the trouble with Danny. "You've been fighting!"

Either/Or, passage 529

"Freddie! Flossie! Stop that! You know that it is forbidden! Go to my office at once and I will come and see you later, You will be punished for this!"

Either/Or, passage 809

On, on and on dashed the big bobs, with the crowd on the hill, and a number of coasters scattered along the way, watching anxiously. As soon as Bert had steered over to the left his sled began to go faster, as the snow was packed better there. He was fast catching up to Danny, when one of the boys on that bob, looking back, saw it, and warned the steersman.

Either/Or, passage 228

At once the dog, with a bark, did so. He sat up on his hind legs and then walked around. Both the children laughed.

Either/Or, passage 617

"And look, boys, here are some spots of water that must have leaked from the wooden tub that holds the tin freezer. See, the water has dripped down on each step! This is the way they carried off our ice cream."

Either/Or, passage 736

"No," said Bert firmly, and he would not go. Jim went off with Danny and some of the other boys, and they were laughing among themselves. Bert felt that they were laughing at him, but he did not mind.

Either/Or, passage 699

"I hope all the poor children in our school have enough to eat," said Freddie. "Mr. Tetlow said for us to bring what we could for them."

Either/Or, passage 648

With a long-handled spoon. Dinah fished for the black thing, and got it. She put it in a dish, with a small portion of the ice cream, and when the latter had melted, Bert, who was inspecting the object, gave a cry of surprise.

Either/Or, passage 933

The letter was sent to the fat lady, and then came a time of anxious waiting. Never before had the children seemed to care so much for Snap.

Either/Or, passage 452

"Well, he can't come to this picnic!" spoke Danny, angrily. "Go on home!" he cried, sharply, stooping to pick up a stone. Snap growled and showed his teeth.

Either/Or, passage 352

Nan looked for Freddie and Flossie. She saw her little sister trying to comfort a small girl who was almost ready to cry, while Freddie, like the manly little fellow he was, had charge of a small chap in whose eyes were two large tears, just ready to fall. It was his first day at school.

Either/Or, passage 202

"And we nearly ran over an elephant," added Freddie, bound that his sister should not tell all the news.

Either/Or, passage 608

"No'm, he didn't do dat. I took p'ticlar notice where he set it. Dere's a wet ring-mark on de porch where de freezer was, 'count of de salty water leakin' out.

Either/Or, passage 878

The fire chief came down while Mr. Bobbsey was there, and they talked matters over. The chief said he would send one of his men around to the different stores that sold cigarettes, to try and learn if boys had purchased any that afternoon, for it was against the law to sell cigarettes to anyone under sixteen years of age.

Either/Or, passage 61

Flossie and Freddie sat down suddenly in the aisle, but they were so fat that they did not mind it in the least. As surprised as he was, Freddie noticed that the fat lady was so large that she could not be thrown out of her seat no matter how suddenly the train stopped The little Bobbsey boy saw the water from the cup spill all over the fat lady, and she held the silver vessel in her big, pudgy hand, looking curiously at it, as though wondering what had so quickly become of the water.

Either/Or, passage 790

It was Freddie who called, and he came running up, anxious to take part in the exciting race.
