It was evening and the bugle\u003cbr\u003ehad just sounded for dinner.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe decks were, therefore, deserted; the long rows of lounging chairs\u003cbr\u003ewere vacant, while the passengers, many of them tourists on pleasure\u003cbr\u003ebent, were below in the dining saloon appeasing the keen appetites\u003cbr\u003eengendered by the brisk wind that was blowing off shore.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn a small steel structure perched high on the boat deck, between the\u003cbr\u003etwo funnels of the _Tropic Queen_, sat a bright-faced lad reading\u003cbr\u003eintently a text-book on Wireless Telegraphy. Although not much more than\u003cbr\u003ea schoolboy, he was assistant wireless man of the _Queen_. His name was\u003cbr\u003eSam Smalley, and he had obtained his position on the ship—the crack\u003cbr\u003evessel of the West Indies and Panama line—through his chum, Jack Ready,\u003cbr\u003ehead operator of the craft.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo readers of the first volume of this series, “The Ocean Wireless Boys\u003cbr\u003eon the Atlantic,” Jack Ready needs no introduction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHere he comes into the wireless room where his assistant sits reading in\u003cbr\u003efront of the gleaming instruments and great coherers. Jack has been off\u003cbr\u003ewatch, lying down and taking a nap in the small sleeping cabin that,\u003cbr\u003eequipped with two berths, opens off the wireless room proper, thus\u003cbr\u003edividing the steel structure into two parts.","brand":"SAP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47152974397680,"sku":"2940015909555","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940015909555","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
