"Got to get back and dress and all that. Awfully glad to have seen you, and all that sort of rot." Nelly unlocked the door with her latchkey, and stood on the step. "I'll buy a fur-wrap," she said, half to herself. "Great wheeze! I should!" "And some nuts for Bill!" "Bill?" "The parrot." "Oh, the jolly old parrot! Rather! Well, cheerio!" "Good-bye . . . You've been awfully good to me."
"I wanted to talk about this play of yours," he explained. "Well, can you lunch to-morrow, say, half-past one?" "Yes. I should like to. What do you think of it, Manders?" There was a pause. "It's too long to discuss now." "You can just say whether you like it or not." "I'll tell you all about it to-morrow. Cheerio, boy." Eric was irritated by Manders' uncommunicativeness.
Wealth there was oh, yes! wealth he himself was a richer man than his father had ever been; but manners, flavour, quality, all gone, engulfed in one vast, ugly, shoulder-rubbing, petrol-smelling Cheerio. Little half-beaten pockets of gentility and caste lurking here and there, dispersed and chetif, as Annette would say; but nothing ever again firm and coherent to look up to.
In the American bar of that palatial hotel he found the young man he was looking for a flaxen-haired youth who was seated upon one of the small tables, with his feet upon a chair, laying down the law to a little group of acquaintances. He greeted Francis cordially but without that due measure of respect which nineteen should accord to thirty-five. "Cheerio, my elderly relative!" he exclaimed.
And over the old coronas we will discuss many things." The arrival of a waiter with dishes broke up the silent communion between husband and wife, and lowered Reggie to a more earthly plane. "Cheerio! Here's to us all! Maddest, merriest day of all the glad New year and so forth.
"Beastly lot of fuss they make over nothing, these chaps," he said. "I know," said the R.T.O.; "but they're paid for it, my boy, and probably your old dear had been strafed himself this morning. Well, cheerio; see you again to-night. Come in time, and I'll get you a decent place." The great man's office was up two flights of wooden stairs in what looked like a deserted house.
Do you think they could swim fourteen thousand miles?" "Well how ? Oh, I forgot! It is so hard to remember about Time- travelling here! Oh, Prue, how exciting it is!" At that moment Dick looked round and saw his sister. Both boys came racing along the sand towards the girls, kicking up their heels like young colts. "Cheerio!" cried Dick, as he pranced up. "What price school! How's this for a rag?
Be good, Julie. We'll meet again sometime, I hope. If not, keep smiling. Cheerio." She waved her hand and was gone in the night. "If there was ever a plucky, unselfish, rattling good woman, there she goes," said Julie. "I've known her sit up night after night with wounded men when she was working like a horse all day.
The little group, disposed upon the lawn according to their various desires, stood and sat looking up at the brave little songster. "How happy he is," said Mrs. Templeton, a wistful cadence of sadness in her voice. "I wonder if he is, Mamma. Perhaps he is only pretending," said Adrien. "Cheerio, old chap!" cried Vic, waving his hand at the gallant little songster.
He is robed as a grand elect perfect and sublime mason with trowel and apron, marked made in Germany. In his left hand he holds a plasterer's bucket on which is printed Défense d'uriner. For identification, bucket in my hand. Cheerio, boys. Mahak makar a bak. General applause. This is the age of patent medicines. A discussion is difficult down here. But this is the point. You die for your country.
