I feel inclined for one myself." "No, thanks." "No?" and the captain yawned again. "Then cheerio!" The door slammed behind them, they descended the steps and got into the car without speaking. Esther could not see why her companion appeared to be so much annoyed.

English soldiers were chatting with Germans, clinking beer mugs with them. The Germans lifted their hats to English "Tommies"; our men, Canadian and English, said "Cheerio!" to German soldiers in uniforms without shoulder-straps or buttons.

The sea's good and clean to die in, anyway. Cheerio." Peter followed him out in a few minutes, and set about his shopping. He found a florist's in Regent Street and bought lavishly. The girl smiled at him, and suggested this and that. "Having a dinner somewhere to-night?" she queried. "But I have no violets." "Got my girl comin' up," said Peter expansively; "that's why there must be violets.

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.

"It was a pleasure. Cheerio! old man!" "There," he thought, sinking back in the tonneau. "I said 'old man'. Singular case, and that lets Siddons out rather neatly. Hum. I'll bet a cookie he knows more about flying than I do or anyone else, for that matter. Well, we'll see. I wonder what sort of outfit Buzz drew."

That is a wild car of yours, Rupert," she added with a laugh. "It fairly flies." Gathering in her hands the men's hats and sticks, she hurried them out of the door. "Cheerio!" cried Vic. "A lovely war is going on down at the McGinnis plant.

He isn't quite quite all there. Will he be coming in soon?" Gratian took her arm, and pressed it hard. "Would you like me at dinner or not; I can easily be out?" Noel shook her head.

The cavalry are massing for a great drive. As soon as we make the gap they'll ride into the blue." "By God!... There'll be some slaughter" "I think the old Boche will crack this time." "Well, cheerio!" There was a sense of enormous drama at hand, and the excitement of it in boys' hearts drugged all doubt and fears.

Having ordered and paid for two whiskies and sodas, the Jew, raising his glass, nodded to his companion and took a drink. The glitter of a magnificent diamond which he wore seemed to attract the other's attention almost hypnotically. "Cheerio, Freddy!" said the thick-set man. "Any news?"
