The Counterfly passages are replete with innuendo:
"Chick" Counterfly
"Dick" Counterfly
Chick against fly.
Dick against fly.
The Chums met Chick in Thick Bush.
"stand by the Screw"
"do rouse yourself for a moment and bear a hand with Blundell"
"if you keep going far enough north, eventually you pass over the
Pole, and then you're heading south again"
"if you went up high enough, you'd be going down again"
[to another surface] "Often to our regret, all too earthly."
