"What you clawin' your head that way for?" he suddenly demanded as Dade continued to puzzle over his problem. Dade grinned. "I'm goin' to halve these sills together. But I'm wantin' to make sure that the halves will be made reverse, so's they'll fit. An' I don't seem to be able to fix it clear in my mind." "You was braggin' some on bein' a carpenter."
"Speyk na like that o' the poopit, Jamie, whaur sae mony holy men hae stede up and spoken the word o' God! It frichts me to hear ye! Ye'll be a burnin and a shinin licht i' that poopit for mony a lang day efter we're deid and hame!" "The mair holy men that hae there witnessed, the less daur ony livin lee stan' there braggin and blazin i' the face o' God and man!
"Toban's been braggin' some about his horse, but I reckon that don't go any more. That black horse can run." He indicated Taggart. "I reckon he come here just to bother you," he said. She told him about the diagram and he started, stepping quickly to where Taggart lay, searching in his pockets until he found the paper. Then he went to the door.

"Well, me what?" snapped the ex-master of the Jefferson P. Benn. But his sparkling eyes showed that he realized what was coming. "You've allus been braggin'," gulped Hiram, "what a dabster you was at cookin', havin' been to sea and "
"I reckon I wasn't doin' no braggin'," denied Dade, reddening a little. Calumet fixed a hostile eye on him. "Braggin' goes," he said shortly. "If you'd said you was a barber, now, no one would expect you to fit any sills together. But when you say you've done carpenter work that makes it different. You ought to sabe sills."
A furlough is as binding on a pale-face, if he be honest, as it is on a red-skin, and was it not so, I would never bring disgrace on the Delawares, among whom I may be said to have received my edication. But words are useless, and lead to braggin' feelin's; here I am; act your will on me." Rivenoak made a sign of acquiescence, and then a short conference was privately held among the chiefs.

They're quicker to imagine things than men. That makes them see things where there ain't anything to see.
O, wait till I get home, and the devil a more braggin' they'll hear out of his jaw." "Indeed then, Barny, the sooner you turn your face toward home the better," said the captain: "since you will go, there is no need of your losing more time."
He was in that shape to begin with. But he didn't start braggin' about it until so many of his bunch got to makin' themselves useful in different ways. Mr. Robert, for instance, gettin' sent out in command of a coast patrol boat; others breakin' into Red Cross work, ship buildin' and so on. Barry claims he tried 'em all and was turned down. But is he discouraged? Not Barry.
