The new boy was more frightened than hurt, and was soon all right again, though he coughed a little because of the water he had swallowed. "Oh, Harry Slater, you were nearly drowned!" cried some of the other children. THE NEW BOY WAS MORE FRIGHTENED THAN HURT AND WAS SOON ALL RIGHT AGAIN THOUGH HE COUGHED A LITTLE BECAUSE OF THE WATER HE HAD SWALLOWED OH HARRY'S LATER YOU WERE NEARLY DROWNED CRIED SOME OF THE OTHER CHILDREN
 as soon as possible, in order that they may not be smothered. So, as soon as he had made sure that Sue was all right, Bunny leaned down, and, catching hold of Harry Slater, the new boy, who was floundering around under water, lifted him up. It was easy for Bunny to do this, as a body in water weighs less than outside. Thus Bunny easily lifted Harry up and held him on his feet, while the new boy choked and gasped to get his breath. By this time his mother was at the edge of the water, where the waves broke on the sand, and she was just going to go in, all dressed as she was, for she did not wear a bathing suit. "Harry," cried Mrs. Slater, "mother is coming!" "There isn't any need, lady!" said Duncan Porter, the life-saver who was always on duty during the bathing hour. "I'll bring him in to you. But, anyhow, Bunny has him safe." The guard, who had been on another part of the beach, had run up when he heard Mrs. Slater scream, and now he waded out and brought Harry to shore in his arms. O OR DOWN IN THE WATER IS TO GET THEM OUT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE IN ORDER THAT THEY MAY NOT BE SMOTHERED SO AS SOON AS HE HAD MADE SURE THAT SUE WAS ALL RIGHT BUNNY LEANED DOWN AND CATCHING HOLD OF HARRY SLATER THE NEW BOY WHO WAS FLOUNDERING AROUND UNDER WATER LIFTED HIM UP IT WAS EASY FOR BUNNY TO DO THIS AS A BODY IN WATER WEIGHS LESS THAN OUTSIDE THUS BUNNY EASILY LIFTED HARRY UP AND HELD HIM ON HIS FEET WHILE THE NEW BOY CHOKED AND GASPED TO GET HIS BREATH BY THIS TIME HIS MOTHER WAS AT THE EDGE OF THE WATER WHERE THE WAVES BROKE ON THE SAND AND SHE WAS JUST GOING TO GO IN ALL DRESSED AS SHE WAS FOR SHE DID NOT WEAR A BATHING SUIT HARRY CRIED MISSUS SLATER MOTHER IS COMING THERE ISN'T ANY NEED LADY SAID DUNCAN PORTER THE LIFE SAVER WHO WAS ALWAYS ON DUTY DURING THE BATHING HOUR I'LL BRING HIM IN TO YOU BUT ANYHOW BUNNY HAS HIM SAFE THE GUARD WHO HAD BEEN ON ANOTHER PART OF THE BEACH HAD RUN UP WHEN HE HEARD MISSUS SLATER SCREAM AND NOW HE WAITED OUT AND BROUGHT HARRY TO SHORE IN ARMS
