When the naval officer comes on shore, he sees the boys chasing Ralph. The boys are really trying to kill Ralph, but the officer thinks that they are only playing some kind of war game or something like that. He says "fun and games" in a questioning sort of way and then asks if they have been having a war.

(Ralph) The officer inspected the little scarecrow in front of him. the kid needed a bath, a hair-cut, a nose wipe and a good deal of ointment. (Littluns) Other boys were appearing now, tiny tots some of them, brown, with the distended bellies of small savages.
