While I was sitting on a rock down in our field eating a banana, I had a dandy thought, and I was going to begin this story by telling you about it, only now I forget what it was.Anyway, Mr. Ellsworth says it's best to begin a story with conversation. He says conversations are even better than bananas to begin with. But, gee whiz, I like bananas. If I began with conversation that means I have to begin it with Pee-wee Harris, because he always does the talking in our troop. He can even talk and eat a banana at the same time.He said, “Do you mean to tell me a railroad car can't have a dark past?”“Sure,” I told him; “maybe it went through a tunnel. Anyway, it's got a dark enough present with one kerosene lamp in it.”“I didn't mean that kind of darkness,” he said; “I mean the kind that secrets are. You know what a dark secret is, don't you?”“It's one that's all black,” little Alfred McCord said.“Sure,” I said; “they're all colors. My sister's keeping one that's a kind of pale lavender.”
