Torchy, Private Sec.

THE UP CALL FOR TORCHY Well, it’s come! Uh-huh! And sudden, too, like I knew it would, if it came at all. No climbin’ the ladder for me, not while they run express elevators. And, believe me, when the gate opened, I was right there with my foot out. It was like this: One mornin’ I’m in my old place behind the brass rail, at the jump-end of the buzzer. I’m everybody’s slave in general, and Piddie’s ... Read more

And after spendin’ ten days soppin’ up information about a machine that was a cross between a road roller and an owl lunch wagon, and fillin’ my system with army stews ... Read more

But what them two and Harriman don’t own is divided up among Fletcher Dawes and a few others. Maybe it’s because Dawes is such a free spender that he’s better advertised. Anyway, when you say Fletcher Dawes you think of a red-faced gent with a fistful of ... Read more

Excuse me, mister man, but ain’t you—Hello, yourself! Blamed if I didn’t think there was somethin’ kind of natural about the looks, as you come pikin’ by. How’re they runnin’, eh?
