Chapter I. GOBLIN NUMBER ONE
YOUNG Parker O'Donnel awakened one morning in his small apartment and found a green man, about
a foot high and with a very big grin, in the living room.

Park had been up bowling the night before. He had bowled on the local team against the team from
Madcat, Idaho, a town about fifty miles distant. Park had gotten to bed late, slept like a log, and the
alarm clock had awakened him. He damned the alarm clock, and got up and stumbled into the living
room to hunt for his socks, which were always getting misplaced.

In fact, Park was so drowsy that he didn't at once realize that he'd seen a little green man about a foot
high with a big grin.

He stumbled into the bathroom, then it dawned on him.

Park jumped about a foot straight up, and gasped, тАЬWhat the blazes!тАЭ

He dashed back into the living room to look, and it was still there. It certainly was. Park's eyes
protruded.

The little man was standing perfectly still in a corner. He was a rather plump fellow, and if not a foot tall,
surely his height was no more than fourteen inches.

His green was the green of rich grass, and he was green all over, except for a breechcloth which was the
color of some kind of skin. The little man came near being disgracefully naked.

тАЬHey!тАЭ Park said. тАЬWho the dickens are you?тАЭ
