"I'll go if you fellows will," remarked Frank. "Oh, well, then let's do it!" cried Tom. "I guess we won't flunk to-morrow. We can burn a little midnight electricity. Let 'er go!" And so they went to the moving picture show. It was like others of its kind, neither better nor worse, with vaudeville acts and songs interspersed between the reels.
Really, I ought to be looking after the men who are wounded, attending to the funerals of " "Now, Bobby, don't flunk like that! Be a man!" Bobby promptly squared his little shoulders and set his jaw. "Oh, I'm not scared!" He was thoughtful for a moment. "But, I'll tell you, it's awful lonesome up in that big chair, so far away from all your friends.
"Certainly; she thought it her duty to flunk you. You shouldn't have mentioned the subject. But never mind. It's only one hour, and it won't take you a minute to work it off. How about German?" "German's a little hard because it's so different from Italian and French, you know; and I'm sort of frightened when she calls on me, and " "Pretty stupid, on the whole?" Patty suggested.
Her face was flushed and her breathing plainly audible. "I had no idea it was like that. Your dad would care? And I would be a coward?" Sally stood like one shocked into deadly silence. Not even her lips parted, and the color left her face sickly white. "Don't you know, don't you understand what it means for a student to deliberately flunk? Not even to try?" demanded Jane.
Hooker set about arranging a mass convention at her home in Hartford, Conn., and upon Miss Anthony's expressing some doubt as to being present, she wrote: "Here I am at work on a convention intended chiefly to honor Miss Anthony and Mrs. Stanton, and behold the Quakeress says maybe she can not come! I won't have the meeting if you are going to flunk.
"Only for the sake of appearances. Nobody will flunk on that account if he's all right in his faith, and pays his money correctly and in due season.

She didn't and" he turned toward her with beaming, prideful eyes "if I were out of debt, I wouldn't trade my friendship with a girl as game as you, Kay, for the entire San Gregorio valley. You're a trump."
Carl suddenly wished himself away from all this useless conflict; out tramping the wet roads with the Turk, or slashing through the puddles at thirty-five miles an hour in the banker's car. He noted stupidly that Genie Linderbeck's hair was scarcely combed. He found he was saying, "Frazer 'll flunk, flunk, flunk; he's going to flunk, flunk, flunk." Then Frazer spoke.
"Maybe you think it's nonsense," returned Hinpoha in an offended tone, "but they do come true, lots of times. Do you remember, Gladys, the time I told you you were going to get a letter from a distance, and you got one from France the very next day?"
