She looked me in the eye and said, 'Yeah and you bring your wife and that pretty little girl with you." "Good for her," Alison said. "Mmm." "It looks like the rain might be stopping. Let's find a beach," Alison suggested. "Yes." Joe corked the wine and called to the horses. "Say hi to Lovena for me, will you?"
Joe's heart gave a great leap, and then settled as cold as lead. Of course, those girls would n't speak to him. But his hopes rose as the proprietor went on talking to him and to no one else. Mr. Turner always made a man feel as if he were of some consequence in the world, and men a good deal older than Joe had been fooled by his manner.
You've waked up from a dream that you're falling?" "Sure," said Joe. Then he whistled. "Oh-oh! I see! You'd drop off to sleep, and you'd be falling. So you'd wake up. Everybody in the Platform will be falling around the Earth in the Platform's orbit! Every time they doze off they'll be falling and they'll wake up!" He managed to think about it. It was true enough.
Tapping at Joe Dashwood's door, Phil received from a strong, deep voice permission to "come in." He entered, and found a very different state of things from that which he had just left. A bright room, and bright, happy faces.
"They must be making sure of the submarine." "If they haven't, we're a good target for her now," said Joe, as he noted the lights agleam on their steamer. "They're taking an awful chance, it seems to me." "I guess the captain knows what he's doing," stated Blake. "He must have been signaled from the destroyers. We'll try to find out."
In the novelty and excitement of getting fairly under way the moving picture boys forgot, for the time being, the presence of one who might be not only an enemy of theirs but of their country also. It was not the first time Blake and Joe had undertaken a long voyage, but this was under auspices different from any other. The United States was at war with a powerful and unscrupulous nation.
Joe was impulsive and quick-tempered, and apt to act on the spur of the moment, while Bob, although never shirking trouble or a fight if it came his way, was more self-controlled. But their points of likeness were more numerous than their points of difference, and they were the warmest of friends. Where one was to be found the other was usually not far off.
"And so her name is a secret, Joe, is it?" cries Booth. "Why, sir," answered the serjeant, "I hope your honour will not insist upon knowing that, as I think it would be dishonourable in me to mention it." "Not at all," replied Booth; "I am the farthest in the world from any such desire. I know thee better than to imagine thou wouldst disclose the name of a fair lady."
"Well, I'm glad you drove a good bargain for the sale of the turtles, Bob," remarked his uncle, the look of disappointment gone. "I said they were yours and I want you to know that I still feel the same way about it." "Thank you, Uncle Joe," replied Bob, as he started for the barn with the team.
Nobody knows who to trust, everybody's accusing the rest of being a spy." "Hell!" said Joe Angell. "I've been in jail for the movement, I'll take my chances of anybody's calling me a spy. What I'm not going to do is to sit down and see the workers driven to hell, because I'm so damn careful about my precious organization." When others objected, Angell rushed on still more vehemently.
