It is railroads and steamers, mills, housing for men, men themselves, organization, system, skill, brains, all-around human capacity. Herbert Hoover is a great miner because he is I say it bluntly and not from any blind hero-worship a great man. If he is, he can do more than mine greatly; he can do other things greatly. Well, he can, and he has done them.
We have to look out for those things, don't we, Betty?" "If you mean," began Betty, slowly, "that I like Dorothy King because she's an influential senior, why, please never think so again, Eleanor. I like her just as I like any one else, because she's so dear and sweet and such a fine, all-around girl." Eleanor laughed scornfully.
He said that was unnecessary, because he had measured the distance between the ceiling and the surface of his desk and found that the line of vision connected so far above that nothing could be read on the desk. Timothy Dwight, afterwards president, was then a tutor. Learning, common sense, magnetism, and all-around good-fellowship were wonderfully united in President Dwight.
"All right, wait a minute and I'll be with you dry the pensive tear, as your friend Roy would say. He's an all-around scout, isn't he?"

Trouble with us," he continued, as they walked up the hill together, "is we haven't any scoutmaster.

I was to be an all-around young woman; so they built a wall all around me.
The moon just stuck one eye over the edge of the prairie, and the rest of the sky was covered with cloud. A little light came from the Injuns' camp-fire, but not enough to ride by, and, besides, I didn't know which way I ought to go. Says I to myself, "Billy Sanders, you are the champion all-around, old-fashioned fool of the district.
I am firmly convinced that much of the so-called laziness of the Filipinos is the direct result of physical weakness due to improper and insufficient food.

Crewe continued, gaining a little heat at the word, "I bought the finest-lookin' pair you ever saw in New York this spring, all-around action, manners, conformation, everything; I'll show 'em to you. One of 'em's all right now; this confounded railroad injured the other gettin' him up here. I've put in a claim. They say they didn't, my man says they did.
