A shrill voice from the crowd at this point offered the constable all cinematograph rights if he would allow the contest to proceed. 'And you pop off, too, all of you, continued Mr Bryce. 'Blest if I know what kids are coming to nowadays. And as for you, he said, addressing Mr Shute, 'all you've got to do is to keep that face of yours closed. That's what you've got to do.
Then we took her, on the way home, to see some horrible wax figures, listen to a good Hungarian band, and nearly put her eyes out with a cinematograph show of the Coronation and Indian Durbar.
He had a hereditary craze for playing at soldiers; and he was and is a naïve suburban snob, as the son of The Englishwoman would naturally be, talking about "the Hohenzollerns" exactly as my father's people in Dublin used to talk about "the Shaws."

With one wild glance at the scene of devastation and anger, William turned and fled through the wood. "Ach! Gott in Himmel!" screamed the fat man, beginning to pursue him. The fat woman and the donkey man joined the pursuit. To William it was like some ghastly nightmare after an evening's entertainment at the cinematograph.
