Sandy got back till his place, an' the match gaed on. "Over comin' up," said the ither empire forby Sandy; an' the laddie that was ballin' says, "Ay weel, than, I'm genna see an' get wid." He gae his arm an awfu' sweel roond, an' instead o' sendin' the ba' to the wickets, it gaed spung ower an' hut Sandy a yark i' the side o' the heid.
"It's because we're twins," said Evelyn. "Everybody who isn't twins is down on them." "It's because they are always beautiful and good," said Alice. "Why don't you stand up for us, father?" It was noticed that Mr. Ballin was not looking well; that the chicken mousse upon his plate was untouched, and that he fooled with his bread, breaking it, crumbling it, and rolling it into pellets.
I had, in cordial agreement with Herr Ballin, always energetically supported the interests of German Shipping Companies; but even my most bitter enemies can only justify their charge against me for the period preceding the war. For, during the war, Herr Ballin had no influence at all, either in America or at home.
But even if you had been yourself I have changed very much. I was at that time, as you were, little more than a boy." "Good Lord!" said Ballin, "were you a part of that hectic flush that to myself I only refer to as 'Sacramento'?" "You do not look as if it had turned you into a drinking man," said Forrest.
With his customary skill, the Kaiser steered clear of any attempt to enter deeply into the political problems of the hour, and behaved towards me, for the rest, just as affably as he had been wont to do in the past. I had made the journey to Kreuznach in the company of my late friend, Ballin, whom I was never to see again.
"Could I have this room to myself for a little while?" asked Forrest. "Of course," said Ballin; "it is yours." Forrest bowed; the corners of his mouth turned a little upward. "Will you come back in an hour you, alone, cousin?" Ballin nodded quietly. "Come along, Charlie," he said, and together they left the room. But when Ballin returned alone, an hour later, the room was empty.
Then your cousin, Ranger Ballin, and his son went down in the City of Pittsburgh; and all this" he made a sudden, sweeping gesture with one of his long, well-kept hands "came to you." "Yes?" Ballin's voice still interrogated coolly. Forrest broke into that naive, boyish smile of his.
When taxes rose and food shortage increased, the possibility that the Germans themselves would have to pay some of their own costs of the war in various forms of taxation determined a rapidly growing number to seek a way out by emigrating at the first opportunity. As Herr Ballin said, "The world will find us as strongly organised for peace as we were organised for war."
That the stranger was a bona fide stranger, James, who had served the Ballins for thirty years, knew; but what manner of stranger, and whether a rogue or a man upon legitimate business, James could not so much as guess. "I beg your pardon, sir," he said, "were you looking for some one?" "Yes," said Forrest, perfectly at his ease, "and no." "Shall I tell Mr. Ballin that you are here, sir?"
She made Marion Zinderstein Jessop the fine player she is. Mrs. Wrightman is always willing to offer sound advice to any player who desires it. Mrs. Wightman and Miss Florence Ballin are the prime factors in the new organization of woman's tennis that has resulted in the great growth of the game in the past two years. There is no player in tennis of greater promise than Marion Zinderstein Jessop.
