Hinman whenever, in fine weather, he wishes to go forth from the
home and enjoy himself in the world at large.
Timothy has been forced to go to work as a valet. The daughters
tearfully support themselves as milliners. Reuben Hinman long
ago spent the ten dollars received from Lawyer Stark.
The tramp who accepted work from Dr. Hewitt made good in every
sense of the word. In fact he did so well that, in time, he took
unto himself a wife and is now the head of a family, which lives
in a little cottage built on Dr. Hewitt's estate. The name of
"Jim Joggers" has given way to the real name of that former knight
of the road. However, as the man is sensitive about his idle
past, we prefer to remember him as "Joggers."
And now we come to the end of the "_High School Boys Vacation
Series_."
It is to be hoped that these four little volumes have not dwelt
so much upon fun as to make it appear that pleasure is all there
is in the world that is worth while.
Dick Prescott and his friends were destined to discover that
all the pleasure in the world that is worth anything at all comes
only as the reward of continuous, hard and useful endeavor.
The further adventures that befell Dick Prescott and his chums
while they were still Gridley High School boys will be found in
the fourth volume of the "_High School Boys Series_," which is published
under the title, "_The High School Captain of the Team; Or, Dick
& Co. Leading the Athletic Vanguard_."
In that volume, the last dealing with Dick Prescott's high school
days, the value of sports and the worth of honor and faithful
work will be set forth as strongly as lies within the power of
the narrator of these events.
