Encyclopedia Brown Finds the Clues
““How much money do we have in the treasury?” she called.
Encyclopedia took the shoe box from its hiding place behind an old tire. He counted the money in it.
“Three dollars and eighteen cents,” he said. “It’s time we went to the bank.”

“This divining rod doesn’t find water,” said Sally. “It finds gold.”
Encyclopedia shoved three dollars into his pocket. He reached for his bike. “Tell me more,” he said.
Sally explained how easy it would be to get rich as they rode toward the beach.MoreLess
