Covington dragged his glance away from the cheeks of his sweetheart. "I I'm sick. You'll have to." "Don't be an idiot, Wally. I can't walk!" Helen explained, with the pride of one displaying her own handiwork: "Mr. Speed defends the Flying Heart to-morrow. You are just in time to see him." "When did you learn to box, Wally?"

Have you got many Hartley women, doing what you call women's work, to compare with me physically, Robert?" "You know the answer to that," he said. "So I do!" said Kate. "I see some of them occasionally, when business calls me that way. Now, Robert, I'm so well, I feel like running a footrace the first thing when I wake up every morning.
A strong swimmer, he was soon climbing ashore. By this time the man he was after had started away, swish-wish through the underbrush; but he was only a few rods in the lead, and one of thickset build was no match for Kendrick in a footrace.

There was to be a footrace of young girls under seventeen, a fat men's race, the younger fellows were to put the shot, to compete in the running broad jump, and the standing high jump, in the hop, skip, and step and in wrestling.
