He is the one not the Fellers and the Dellarmes and the Stranskys, who merely act up to their faith and training as pawns he in the security of his cabinet making war. Why didn't he say: 'We do not want war. We will not mobilize our army. We will do nothing to arouse the war passion?"
It was a very unusual thing for bitterness to tingle Jerry's voice, and it augured a bruised heart. "I'm big amongst leetle fellers," he replied. "But along side him, I'm a runt." "Ef he's got some thing ye hain't got, like es not, hit wucks t'other way round too. Ye're strong enough an' ye've got gentleness." Jerry leaned forward to her.
"Don't you know the difference between that and a fish-peddler's horn? That's the tune we fellers heard the Huns play just before Armistice Day. That's retreat! Come on, Legion!" he urged, frantically. "Ram back those sledgehammers!" Morrison grinned and released the general's arm. "You hear that, do you, sir?
The very last time I was there, they took and hung up ... me and some other fellers had been stoppin' up a bit late the night before, and kickin' up a bit of a shindy, and what did those girls do? They got the barman to come into my room while I was asleep, and hang a bucket o' water to one of the beams over the bed. Then I'm blamed if they didn't tie a string from it to my big toe!
"Two brace we came on board with and we weren't drunk, you bet. We hid them safe before them fellers aft went through the dunnage. And Cockney didn't find out about them, either.

God A'mighty, boys, think of losin' that much real money when you're on the make like Jim Swope! W'y, Jim would go crazy, he'd throw a fit and, more than that, fellers," he added, sinking his voice to a confidential whisper, "he'd go round.
That's what Uncle Sam's trying to do for all the rest of you fellers only you haven't got sense enough to know it."
"Hulloa, Lin!" boomed the doctor, greeting this native as an old acquaintance. "Hello, Doc!" answered Lin. "By the great horn spoon! I didn't expect to see you here. Who are these fellers?" The doctor introduced his comrades. Lin greeted them with bluff simplicity, and called them one and all by their Christian names as soon as these could be found out.
