Good afternoon. Afternoon. Yes, she was back. To the old dingdong again. Your friends are inside, Mr Lidwell. George Lidwell, suave, solicited, held a lydiahand. Bloom ate liv as said before. Clean here at least. That chap in the Burton, gummy with gristle. No-one here: Goulding and I. Clean tables, flowers, mitres of napkins. Pat to and fro. Bald Pat. Nothing to do. Best value in Dub.
Manchester, almost alone among our great towns of the present day, has not only a musical, but a pictorial life of its own; its young artists dub themselves 'a school, study in Paris, and when they come home scout the Academy and its methods, and pine to set up a rival art-centre, skilled in all the methods of the Salon, in the murky north.

I saw all those hundreds of people demanding that Gridley win," retorted Dave. "What could I do? I had to make the fellows do something like what they've been doing under Dick Prescott, or confess myself a dub. I couldn't lean on a word from you, Dick. So you fairly drove me into planning something that would either carry off the game or make us look like chromos of football players.

It's the thing to be alive in athletics and a dub in everything else. And because it's the thing, every fellow fits in. On the whole," he added reflectively, "I think it's this 'dear old college' feeling that's to blame for it all." "My God, Joe!" This was high treason! "Sure it is," he retorted. "It is your god and the god of us all. This dear old college feeling.
For myself, I may say that in this matter I am what the Americans do not call a 'Mugwump, what English politicians dub a 'superior person' that is, I take no side, and attempt to enjoy the best of both. It must be owned that this attitude is sometimes made a little difficult by the vigour of your special devotees.
