Walker had come in a little later and the two were busy going over the evening's events when Strong called out as above. "Well, Ted, I guess we are going to have war. At least we won the first victory, or rather you did." Ted fidgeted at the praise and grinned sheepishly. "I wonder," said Walker, "if they have, found the dictaphone as yet." "You can safely figure on the fact that they did.
"You forget your own suggestion of a dictaphone," said Sir James dryly. "We have a very formidable adversary. I believe, if we exercise all due care, that there is a very good chance of his being delivered into our hands. But we must neglect no precaution. We have an important witness, but she must be safeguarded. I would suggest that Miss Tuppence should go to bed, and that you and I, Mr.
It was the only thing to mark the spot where the bowl which had held us had been, and it lay, a brown and futile tangle of rope and wood, a helpless speck of artifice on an imperturbable mass of vegetation. Mr Le ffaçasé removed the tube of the dictaphone from his lips as I entered.
They are going to issue orders from Ottawa to confiscate those in our own country at once. "Ottawa wanted all the facts and it got them. I expect to hear further from them in the course of the day." "I wonder," said Walker, "if our friends will be polite enough to return my dictaphone. They should, it does not belong to them and they probably know to whom, it does belong."
It may seem mere grotesque piquancy that the muezzin should ride to the mosque in a tram-car, or that the Moslem business man should emerge from his harem, read his morning paper, motor to an office equipped with a prayer-rug, and turn from his devotions to dictaphone and telephone.
He has the necessary knowledge to place a dictaphone or tap a telephone wire. Also, he, another man named Bronson, and I have already made arrangements for placing that dictaphone at the Germans' meeting-place." He turned to Walker. "Are you ready?" "In about five minutes," replied Walker, with a grin. While they were waiting Strong suddenly thought of something.
An immediate and careful search of the room was made, to see if anyone had been there since they left and also for any clue as to the probable leak. "Nothing seems wrong as far as I can see," O'Reilly started to say. "Hello, what is this?" He had discovered the cleverly concealed wires of the dictaphone. Winckel and Schmidt joined him on the instant.
He feels that the world is foolish because it is ignorant, not because it is wicked. And he feels that the foolishness of the world is a count in the indictment against religion. Religion has not taught; it has used mankind as a dictaphone. He has spoken to me with great hope and confidence of the change which is coming over the Church in this matter of religious teaching. Dr.
And in my dream, I see blind women teachers, stenographers, dictaphone and switchboard operators; and other women knitting, crocheting, sewing, cooking, weaving rugs and making baskets, and doing the work side by side with their more fortunate sisters, and doing it as well, and often better.
I heard him sit down and get up more than once; while opposite me in an easy-chair, with his glass of Schiedam schnapps beside him, was the virile Dutchman, hammering in his breast-swelling story of danger and courage, of starvation and storm. I sighed for a dictaphone in which the original Dutch-English might be recorded for the delight of others.
