Hope
?
Rather
!
Tons
of
it
,
"
said
Father
,
cheerfully
;
"
but
it
'll
want
something
besides
hope
--
a
bit
of
brazing
say
,
or
some
solder
,
and
a
new
valve
.
I
think
we
'd
better
keep
it
for
a
rainy
day
.
In
other
words
,
I
'll
give
up
Saturday
afternoon
to
it
,
and
you
shall
all
help
me
.

"
CAN
girls
help
to
mend
engines
?
"
Peter
asked
doubtfully
.
"
Of
course
they
can
.
Girls
are
just
as
clever
as
boys
,
and
do
n't
you
forget
it
!
How
would
you
like
to
be
an
engine-driver
,
Phil
?
"
"
My
face
would
be
always
dirty
,
would
n't
it
?
"
said
Phyllis
,
in
unenthusiastic
tones
,
"
and
I
expect
I
should
break
something
.
"
"
I
should
just
love
it
,
"
said
Roberta
--
"
do
you
think
I
could
when
I
'm
grown
up
,
Daddy
?
Or
even
a
stoker
?
"
"
You
mean
a
fireman
,
"
said
Daddy
,
pulling
and
twisting
at
the
engine
.
"
Well
,
if
you
still
wish
it
,
when
you
're
grown
up
,
we
'll
see
about
making
you
a
fire-woman
.
I
remember
when
I
was
a
boy
--
"
Just
then
there
was
a
knock
at
the
front
door
.
"
Who
on
earth
!
"
said
Father
.
"
An
Englishman
's
house
is
his
castle
,
of
course
,
but
I
do
wish
they
built
semi-detached
villas
with
moats
and
drawbridges
.
"
Ruth
--
she
was
the
parlour-maid
and
had
red
hair
--
came
in
and
said
that
two
gentlemen
wanted
to
see
the
master
.
