THE RAILWAY CHILDREN - 10

  "Yes," said Peter, slowly. "And the 11.29 hasn't gone by yet. We must let them know at the station, or there will be an awful accident."

  "There isn't time," said Bobbie. "It's past eleven now."

  They thought for a moment.

  "We need something red. Then we could go down on the line and wave it," said Peter. "Everyone knows that red means danger, and the train would stop."

  "Our petticoats!" said Phyllis. "They're red. Let's take them off."

  The girls did this, then the three of them ran along the line to a corner. When they were round the corner, it was impossible to see the heap of trees and rocks.

  "We'll need some stick as well," said Peter, taking one of the petticoats. "Now....." He took a knife from his pocket.

  "You're not going to cut them, are you?" said Phyllis.

  "Yes, cut them!" said Bobbie. "If we can't stop the train, there will be a real accident and people will be killed."

바빠도 밥은 먹어야 하듯, 할 일은 하자고요.
