He was not wearing the Oakdale colors. "I'm glad nobody knows that part of the money he put up was furnished by me," thought Hooker. "He's got an awful crust. I couldn't do a thing like that, and be so cheeky and unconcerned. Gee! but he'll get the fellows down on him."
I have been taking lessons down at Garden City, and my plane is to be a real long distance one. Dad will give me anything if I will go to school. Gee, I hate it!" Frank swallowed hard. Two automobiles and an airplane! He commenced to feel sorry for Bill. "Bill and I are going east to school this fall," he said. "Where are you going?" "I don't know yet," said Jardin.
There's half an inch of it left. Not me. Say, I've heard your boss has quite a case on Mrs. Cable. How about it?" he almost whispered this. "You shouldn't talk like that." "Oh, you mean that gag about people living in glass houses? Gee, don't worry about that. Chicago is a city of glass houses. A blind man could throw rocks all day and smash a hole in somebody's house every crack.
He did as much as he could toward getting supper, and when it grew dark and still they did not return, he clambered up on the cabin roof again and sat there gazing off into the night.

I wouldn't care if he had keys to all the banks and safe deposit vaults in the United States." Gee, it just kind of gave me a thrill, the way he spoke. I said, "Anyway, now I know that I like you.

"Well, it looks very much like it, by the way that they are carrying on," returned Dick.
"It doesn't matter ... whether it was straight ... or ... not ..." He interpolated a whistle which made her add: "What I mean is that out here in the East they don't even like it if a girl's been ENGAGED before."

Now at the ringing shout, "I've volunteered," they were on their feet, fairly trembling with excitement and eagerness. "Allen, Allen!" cried Betty, the color flaming into her face. "Oh, I'm so glad!

But I'll never say anything, anyway. It seemed kind of, you know, like an army coming to rescue me, slow but sure, and pretty soon I was swimming around, and oh, didn't I feel good!
