Book excerpt: In Roy Blakeley on the Mohawk Trail by Percy Keese Fitzhugh, Roy Blakeley goes on an expedition with his fellow Boy Scouts to test the indefatigable drive of the community Hunkerjunk car. Excerpt: "Gordon Lord flung his duffel bag into the bench on the station platform and, casting himself precipitately beside it, smiled the smile of the Scouts. It was the genuine, original, warranted scout smile, done to perfection. It had often been remarked of Gordon that when he smiled his lips formed a perfect crescent so that if the words "Be Prepared" had been printed on his white, even teeth, the effect would have been perfectly natural. Moreover, it was somewhat to his credit that he smiled on the present occasion, for several commuters who were in the same predicament as himself stalked up and down the platform in anything but amiable humor."
