Felix turns sixteen. Mom says—“Get a job”. Luckily, it just so happens, that one of Felix’s pals Fred, has a Dad, who knows a man. Said man has a hotel, way up in the Sullivan Highlands of Pennsylvania. It’s all arranged. Fred’s dad drives the boys up to Eagles Mere— a lovely place, way out in the country. Felix is a fish out of water. Felix gets lonesome, misses all the people on the street. Felix writes letter after letter— “Get me out of here”. It does no good— no answer. Felix thinks he’s going to die— but doesn’t. The food’s good and there’s lots of it. Then too, pretty college girls work there. They’re nice to him. He figures he’ll stick it out. Bobby |

Sunshine, Sally is not Felix's sister. She is another foster child that was in the same house as Felix. She is doing fine, and they will get together soon. James, Don't they though. Bobby |
