KILPA
— Sen minä sanon vaikka kuinka monta kertaa, että yksiä ämmiä
ovat yhteiskoululaiset, tyttöjen hameissa kieppujia, joita
opettajamamssellit taputtavat päähän hokien: Kas niin, kas niin
tekevät kiltit lapset. — Hyi!
— Veto on lopussa!
— Vähän aikaa vetää vielä Iso, sitten alkaa Vähä imeä, eikä
muuta kuin antaa mennä, selitti Hannes suunnaten kuitenkin uintinsa
entistä enemmän oikealle.
Ison kosken kohina painui Varissaaren taa, mutta Vähän
kumeampi pauhu alkoi kuulua yhä selvemmin. Vähässä koskessa ei
ollut mitään putousta, vaan virta vilisti vinhaa vauhtia tukinlaskua
varten padottujen rantojen välitse, ryöpyten korkeina hyökyaaltoina
ja alempana muodostaen suuria häränsilmäpyörteitä.
— Niin no, jatkoi Taavi, — mutta kyllä minä siitä olisin pian
selvinnyt jonkin tukin selkään, ellen muuten. Mutta tattis vain silti,
pojat. Nyt se on tehty, Manski, vai mikä sinä olet. Ja Mikkokin, mistä
sinä, partiojehu, tähän lensit? Taisit vainuta hengenpelastusta. Mutta
tuossahan on vaateriepumme, Manski, niin ei meidän tarvitse loikkia
intiaaneina kaupungin kauhuksi uimahuoneelle.
