“Well, then I want to be great

        by inventing something.”

        “What could you invent,

        friend?” said Ginger.

        William thought for a moment.

        “Everything has already been
        invented—electricity, the

        telephone, the  wireless. There
        is nothing left to invent,” said

        William gloomily. Then, they
        talked about what could be

        invented. “You tell me what to invent and I                              wireless  a  system  of
                                                                                 communication  that  sends
        will invent it. I will invent anything you say,”                         and  receives  signals  by  radio

        said William. “Well then…”                                               and  microwave
                                                                                 Vicar  a  priest  of  the  Church
        “Now, boys look where you are going,”                                    of  England

        said Mrs Bott, who was accompanied by                                    chronic  a  problem  that
                                                                                 continues  for  a  long  time
        the  Vicar’s wife. “Talk about smoke. It is                              chimney smoking  refers  to
        something that is  chronic! Anyone who                                   smoke  from  a  fire  (fireplace)

        would invent something that will stop our                                not  being  properly  drawn  up
                                                                                 and  out  of  the  chimney
        library  chimney smoking, Botty and we
        would not mind what we paid him at all.” She moved ahead. The
        Outlaws kept looking after her.


        “That is what you can invent,”
        said Ginger to William. “Invent

        something to stop her library

        chimney smoking.” William thought
        the smoke is the house would harm
        Mrs Bott and her family. He wanted

        to invent something and help.

        Mr Bott looked at his wife in the

        beautifully furnished drawing-room,
        as if he was expecting a visitor.
