"The Bobbsey Twins in the Great West"


"It's a regular log cabin! Oh, it's a regular log cabin!" cried Bert,
as he saw where they were to live during their stay in the lumber
camp.
"So this is to be our cabin, is it?" said Mr. Bobbsey as he got down
and helped his wife, while the driver lifted out the children and then
the baggage.
"Yes, the boys fixed this up for you," answered Mr. Hallock. "We hope
you'll like it."
"I'm sure I shall," said Mrs. Bobbsey, as she looked inside the log
cabin, for it really was that, the sides being made of logs piled one
on the other, the ends being notched so they would not slip out.
"Isn't it cute!" exclaimed Nan, as she followed her mother inside the
cabin. "It has tables and chairs and a cupboard and everything!"
"And it's all made of wood!" cried Bert. "Say, the Boy Scouts would
like this all right."
"I believe they would," agreed his father. "As for everything being
made of wood, it generally is in a lumber camp. Now we must get
settled. Where can I find the foreman?" he asked of the driver of the
wagon who had brought the Bobbseys over from the railroad station.
