He shrugged his shoulders, merely, and produced and lighted a cigarette. "Let's go," he said, flipping the match away. My prisoner and I walked to a car and proceeded to police headquarters. His attitude, naturally enough, was one of extreme dejection; nevertheless I tried to cheer him up vainly and when opportunity offered I also tried to get some light upon the ring episode.
"Granted for the sake of argument," broke in the Colonel, flipping the ash from off his cigar. "But what about art, science and literature, the real things which stand for civilization?"

Flipping the switch, Stevens turned the dial and Titan shone upon the screen; so close, that it no longer resembled a moon, but was a world toward which they were falling with an immense velocity. "Not close enough to make out much detail yet let's take another look at Saturn," and Stevens projected the visiray beam out toward the mighty planet.
Now, I know you'll think it's ridiculous when I tell you, but it's an actual fact, that that very day my daughter was playing the 'Star-spangled Banner' on the piano, and that rooster, when he heard it, came scudding into the parlor, and after flipping up on the piano he struck out and crowed that tune just as natural as if he was an educated musician.

Haven't I told you a thousand times that it doesn't go that way? This is it." Puckering up her lips, she whistled the tune correctly, and he joined in. At the end of the chorus he looked at his watch.
"There, Tom Swift!" he cried, flipping out an illustrated page, evidently from some illustrated newspaper. "There's the very latest from the other side.
