So the people went out into the field against Israel: and the battle was in the wood of Ephraim; where the people of Israel were slain before the servants of David, and there was there a great slaughter that day, of twenty thousand men.

"But, mark my words, this is just the beginning. Before the thing's settled we'll be in it too." She shrank from the words. "Oh, no, not America! That would be too terrible. David might go then, and a lot of Greenwald boys oh, that would be awful!" "Yes! But it would be far more dreadful to have them sit back safe while others died for the freedom of the world.

When they had calmed down a little, the Faun said, "Can you dance?" "No," said David. "I wish I could, though." "The educational value of dancing is practically nil," the Phoenix began severely.
