DEAL WITH THE D.E.V.I.L
THE WALL AROUND THE WORLD
It was black, shiny, a thousand feet high. Inside, of course, was the world. Outside? Porgie rode his broomstick and wondered ...
THE Wall that went all the way around the World had always been there, so nobody paid much attention to it—except Porgie. Porgie was going to find out what was on the other side of it—assuming there was another side—or break his neck trying. He was going on fourteen, an age that tends to view the word impossible as a meaningless term invented by adults for their own peculiar purposes. But he recognized that there were certain practical difficulties involved in scaling a glassy-smooth surface that rose over a thousand feet straight up. That’s why he spent a lot of time watching the eagles. This morning, as usual, he was late for school. He lost time finding a spot for his broomstick in the crowded rack in the school yard, and it was exactly six minutes after the hour as he slipped guiltily into the classroom. For a moment, he thought he was safe. Old Mr. Wickens had his back to him and was chalking a pentagram on the blackboard. But just as Porgie started to slide into his seat, the schoolmaster turned and drawled, “I see Mr. Shirey has finally decided to join us.” . . .
