The Young Engineers In Nevada
by H. Irving Hancock
Say, got the makings?
"Eh?" inquired Tom Reade, glancing up in mild astonishment.
"Got the makings?" persisted the thin dough-faced lad of fourteen who had come into the tent.
"I believe we have the makings for supper, if you mean that you're hungry," Tom rejoined. "But you've just had your dinner."
"I know I have," replied the youngster. "That's why I want my smoke."
"Your wha-a-at?" insisted Tom. By this time light had begun to dawn upon the bronzed, athletic young engineer, but he preferred to pretend ignorance a little while longer.
"Say, don't you carry the makings?" demanded the boy.
About The Author :-
The YOUNG ENGINEERS series, written H. Irving Hancock, consisted of five titles originally published by the Henry Altemus Company between 1912 and 1920. A final phantom title, "The Young Engineers in the Land of Lead" was advertised but never published.
According to Wikipedia: "Harrie Irving Hancock (1866?-1922) was an American chemist and writer, mainly remembered as an author of children's literature and juveniles in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and as having written a fictional depiction of a German invasion of the USA."
