"From what I've heard, I should say she was one of the 'Lady's Pictorial' kind."
I'm envying you some, for there's a place waiting for you in the fighting line. 'You've got to get home and keep people's heads straight there. That's the weak link in our chain and there's a mighty lot of work before you. 'Maybe, he said abstractedly, with his eye on the top of the Vendome column.
Then a line of coolies moves along, placing sleepers at regular intervals; another gang drops the rails in their places; yet another brings along the keys, fishplates, bolts and nuts while following these are the men who actually fix the rails on the sleepers and link up from one to another.
