H

"
said
Billy
.
"
It
sounds
very
foolish
.
Knives
are
dirty
things
at
any
time
.
The
proper
thing
to
do
is
to
climb
up
a
mountain
with
a
well-balanced
saddle
,
hang
on
by
all
four
feet
and
your
ears
too
,
and
creep
and
crawl
and
wriggle
along
,
till
you
come
out
hundreds
of
feet
above
anyone
else
on
a
ledge
where
there
's
just
room
enough
for
your
hoofs
.
Then
you
stand
still
and
keep
quiet
--
never
ask
a
man
to
hold
your
head
,
young
un-keep
quiet
while
the
guns
are
being
put
together
,
and
then
you
watch
the
little
poppy
shells
drop
down
into
the
tree-tops
ever
so
far
below
.
"
"
Do
n't
you
ever
trip
?
"
said
the
troop-horse
.
"
They
say
that
when
a
mule
trips
you
can
split
a
hen
's
ear
,
"
said
Billy
.
"
Now
and
again
perhaps
a
badly
packed
saddle
will
upset
a
mule
,
but
it
's
very
seldom
.
I
wish
I
could
show
you
our
business
.
It
's
beautiful
.
Why
,
it
took
me
three
years
to
find
out
what
the
men
were
driving
at
.

The
science
of
the
thing
is
never
to
show
up
against
the
sky
line
,
because
,
if
you
do
,
you
may
get
fired
at
.
Remember
that
,
young
un
.
Always
keep
hidden
as
much
as
possible
,
even
if
you
have
to
go
a
mile
out
of
your
way
.
I
lead
the
battery
when
it
comes
to
that
sort
of
climbing
.
"
"
Fired
at
without
the
chance
of
running
into
the
people
who
are
firing
!
"
said
the
troop-horse
,
thinking
hard
.
"
I
could
n't
stand
that
.
I
should
want
to
charge
--
with
Dick
.
"
"
Oh
,
no
,
you
would
n't
.
You
know
that
as
soon
as
the
guns
are
in
position
they
'll
do
all
the
charging
.
That
's
scientific
and
neat
.
But
knives
--
pah
!
"
The
baggage-camel
had
been
bobbing
his
head
to
and
fro
for
some
time
past
,
anxious
to
get
a
word
in
edgewise
.
Then
I
heard
him
say
,
as
he
cleared
his
throat
,
nervously
:

"
I
--
I
--
I
have
fought
a
little
,
but
not
in
that
climbing
way
or
that
running
way
.
"
"
No
.
Now
you
mention
it
,
"
said
Billy
,
"
you
do
n't
look
as
though
you
were
made
for
climbing
or
running
--
much
.
Well
,
how
was
it
,
old
Hay-bales
?
"
"
The
proper
way
,
"
said
the
camel
.
"
We
all
sat
down
--
