Carnegie inspired these men with his own energy and restlessness; the spirit of the whole establishment automatically became that of the pushing spirit of its head. This little giant became the most remorseless pace-maker in the steel regions. However astounding might be the results obtained by the Carnegie works the captain at the head was never satisfied.
"No doubt Scarborough, like all men, imagines he's above jealousy," Gladys had said to herself, casting her keen eyes over the situation. "But there never was a man who didn't race better with a pace-maker than on an empty track."
"Yet, if I don't I'll promise you to be the hardest pace-maker that Hi Martin ever had behind him in the water." Boys attired in their best tip-toed about in creaking new shoes, resplendently polished for the occasion. Every boy had a flower in his upper button-hole.
If I do not have water I don't touch it!" A curious little smile flitted across Mr. Crawford's lips. "You are in a position to dictate, Conniston. Let it be as you say." "And now, if you have no immediate orders for me, I want to get to work. I am going to shift the gang under the Lark out yonder, in front of the others. He's the best pace-maker I've got." "Go ahead. I'll be here until noon."
"It seems like bully good fun!" declared Bandy-legs, who was puffing a little, his boat being somewhat more weighty than the other two single canoes, and who consequently was somewhat behind the rest; "but I wish you'd get a rope on Steve there, and hold him in.

Another organ the thyroid has the special power of governing the RATE OF DISCHARGE of energy; in other words, the thyroid is the pace-maker.
"The difficulty under the profit system had been to avoid producing too much; the difficulty under the equal sharing system was how to produce enough. The smallness of demand had before limited supply, but supply had now set to it an unlimited task. Under private capitalism demand had been a dwarf and lame at that, and yet this cripple had been pace-maker for the giant production.
He took Tuppence by the arm, and walked her to the window. "There she is." "Oh!" said Tuppence with a note of reverence in her voice, as she gazed down at the enormous car. "She's some pace-maker, I can tell you," said Julius complacently. "How did you get it?" gasped Tuppence. "She was just being sent home to some bigwig." "Well?" "I went round to his house," said Julius.
As it was only sixty-five miles to Solomon and back, Allan decided to try to pass the teams in front, even if he acted as trail-breaker and pace-maker; for there was no necessity in so short a race for generalship in the matter of feeding and resting.
But Mr. Leonard had taken great pains to inform them that the successful long-distance runners always take things moderately easy in the beginning of a race, preserving as much vigor as possible for the gruelling finish. The chief idea was to keep just behind the pace-maker, and be ready to rush to the front when on the home-stretch.
