Then the dishes are hung to the clothes line or scattered on the grass to dry. The neighbor's boy uses the dishes much as a shooting gallery marksman would clay rabbits. His aim is good. When Andy spanks him he arouses the ire of the boy's father. Here is the beginning of the conflict which extends to a mountain-climbing contest. Forced into the latter against his wishes, Andy finds his principal rival for the honors and the money prize the same father of the boy. How, through no fault of his own, he outwits him and wins the peak first is the story told. It partakes of those thrilling cliff-side situations where the characters are about to or do fall great spaces to emerge from the experience unscathed.
