I was interested to note that the tune was from a fairly recent comic opera that can hardly have reached the general population of Sweetapple Cove. "There is your crank," I said, rather viciously. He knocked at the door and came in, breezily, as he generally does. "I've got to be off," he announced. "I shall probably not return till to-morrow night, or perhaps the morning after.
On rare occasions, when in town, the financier dined out, limiting himself to a few houses. Once in a long while he attended what are known as banquets, such as those given by the Chamber of Commerce, though he generally refused to speak. Hodder, through Mr. Parr's intervention, had gone to one of these, ably and breezily presided over by the versatile Mr. Plimpton.
Spite of my Quaker education, or perhaps for that very reason, I delighted to see dancing. Dancing, such as it was then, when young folk moved breezily and lightly, as if they loved it; skimming like swallows down the long lines of the Triumph gracefully winding in and out through the graceful country dance lively always, but always decorous.
So she went over to the davenport again, where she could cry better, and did wonders in that line, in a steady, low-spirited way, till Lucille came breezily in. Lucille Strong was a plump, exuberant person with corn-colored hair and bright blue eyes and the most affectionate disposition in the world. She also had a quick, fly-away temper, and more emotions than principles.
She'd got her heart so set on my graduating!" "Well, cheer up!" said Courtland, breezily. "Very likely your coming will help her to rally again! What train do you want to get? Can I help you any?" Wittemore lifted his head and looked about his room helplessly. It was plain he was dazed.
She was one of those tall, slim, long-limbed, dryad-sort of girls they are running up nowadays in England and America with much success; and besides all that, she was an amazing symphony in white and gold against an azure Italian sea and sky, the two last being breezily jumbled together at the moment for us on shipboard.
"I can just see Jason Stone reading that article at his breakfast table this morning," smiled Mr. Prescott. "Stone is a great sail-trimmer, always afraid of the man who casts a vote." "What's the matter?" asked Mrs. Prescott, coming in breezily from the kitchen. Dick explained the news to his mother. "Abolish football at the High School!" echoed Mrs. Prescott, indignantly.
Come in!" she cried as the door opened. Major Marchand marched into the room breezily, still in the dress uniform Ruth had seen at Aunt Abelard's cottage. "Ah, Mademoiselle!" he cried, having kissed his mother's hand and suddenly beholding the girl who had shyly retired to the other side of the hearth. "May I greet you?" He came around the tea table and took her hand.
Grace had hardly established herself in her office when Emma Dean came breezily in from her work. "Well, Gracie," was her cheery greeting, "has she materialized, and is she as pathetic and persistent as Sister Ida?" Grace made a little gesture of resignation. "Prepare for the surprise of your college career, Emma." "Didn't she come?" demanded Emma, "That wouldn't surprise me.
Much to Jim's relief, he excused himself shortly, whereupon the former, after allowing Wharton to pay the score, suggested a dance, breezily sweeping aside his sister's mild objection. Of course, Bob was delighted, and soon the trio had set out upon a round of the dancing-cafes.
