"No," said Tom to himself. "I'm not going to take this offer. There's too much work and risk attached to it. I want to stay at home and work on my noiseless motor for the airship. After that-- well--I don't know what I'll do. I'll tell Mr. Period that he needn't wait the five minutes. My mind is made up now!"
