In it she advised the audience when anxious to settle any question of personal or national interest to "Put it up to the Man in the Moon." This night she introduced a verse in which she told of her desire to know which horse on the morrow would win the Suburban, and, in the chorus, expressed her determination to "Put it up to the Man in the Moon."
"And so that was your secret?" asked Nan. "Yes, that was it," her brother answered. "But I wish we had something to do now." "Whatever you do, you want to do in the next two weeks," said Mr. Bobbsey, coming up on deck. "Why?" asked Bert. "Because our houseboat trip will come to an end then." "Oh!" cried the Bobbsey twins in a chorus. "That's too bad!"
You don't well, I will just give you an idea of Harris's comic singing, and then you can judge of it for yourself. I expect you all know it, you know. But it's the only thing I know. It's the Judge's song out of Pinafore no, I don't mean Pinafore I mean you know what I mean the other thing, you know. You must all join in the chorus, you know."
"That's all nonsense," said Goggins, who wished, nevertheless, that he had not heard the "nonsense." "Come, sing another song, Jim." Jim said he did not remember one. "Then you sing, Ralph." Ralph said every one knew he never did more than join a chorus. "Then join me in a chorus," said Goggins, "for I'll sing, if Jim's afraid." "I'm not afraid," said Jim. "Then why won't you sing?"

In response to the usual inquiries, conducted amid a chorus of yapping dogs, I was informed that Tshoza did not live there, but somewhere else; that he was too old to see anyone; that he had gone to sleep and could not be disturbed; that he was dead and had been buried last week, and so forth.
Will you please tell me if this" pointing to me "is the captive baby-killer?" "Now give us the chorus, old son," said Marmaduke. Explanations followed, and the Bing Boys retired, rather crestfallen. It is embarrassing enough to be mistaken for a German airman. It is more embarrassing to be mistaken for an airman who shot down a German airman when there was no German airman to shoot down.
The manager bent an ear toward the outer door and recognized that there had been no resumption of the saturnalian chorus between his walls. "Mr. Thayre," he commented bitterly to the guest who had followed into the private room, "your friend there has put New Year's eve on the blink for my place this thing costs me thousands."
Now there was no one living in the town but Rufe the hunter; and once more I heard Rufe's praises by the yard, and this time sung in chorus. I could not help perceiving at the time that there was something underneath; that no unmixed desire to have us comfortably settled had inspired the Kelmars with this flow of words.
However, they launched at him a chorus of hisses. "A-a-a-a!" triumphed Cis. "You see what people think of you? Good! Good! Why don't you go out and get hold of them? why don't you throw them around? Oh, you're safe in here, with the children!" Still Barber did not notice her. Leaning farther out across the window sill, he shook a fist into space. "Bah!" he shouted.
