It was impossible to take offence at the old man's words, spoken so quietly and impressively. Neither could he detect any sign of fun-making in his open face and kindly eyes. He wondered if this giant were altogether sane. He had often heard stories of men who, living so long in lonely places, had become quite demented. Perhaps this was one of them.
To radiate good-will, take things as they come and enjoy them, and to do your full share of entertainment and fun-making this is the true camp spirit. =Camp Outfits. Clothing. Personal Outfits. Camp Packs. Duffel-Bags and What to Put in Them=
Peter was never satisfied with less than a dozen of these fun-making worthies, and a private family which could not afford at least one hired fool was thought to be in very straitened circumstances. In the reign of the empress Anne the number of court buffoons was reduced to six, but three of the six were men of the highest birth.
When he described the dreadful power of holy water and frankincense and the book of exorcisms "to scald, broyle and sizzle the devil," or "the dreadful power of the crosse and sacrament of the altar to torment the devill and to make him roare," or "the astonishable power of nicknames, reliques and asses ears," he revealed a faculty of fun-making just short of effective humor.
They did not join in the fun-making at the enemy's expense, though naturally they did not feel very sorry for young Ripley. "Will you ride your pony home, sir?" asked the man who had done the saddling. "No," said Fred shortly. He felt tempted to tell the man to lead the worthless animal away and shoot it. Then he changed his mind.
To the things which he personally reverenced, he was always reverential; and his expression of likes and dislikes, of prejudices and predilections, was honest and fearless. Grant as we may the humorist's right to exaggerate and even to distort, for the purposes of his fun-making, it does not therefore follow that his judgments, however forthright or sincere, are valid, reputable criticisms.
I thought that this unnatural speech of theirs was one of the principal things an audience paid for. The only actor who spoke like a human being was the comedian, and this, too, seemed to be perfectly proper, for a comedian was a fellow who did not take his art seriously, and so I thought that this natural talk of his was part of his fun-making.
Daylight was certainly exceeding himself in his consummate fun-making. Steam-thawing when even wood-burning was an untried experiment, a dream in the air! "Laugh, dang you, laugh! Why your eyes ain't open yet. You-all are a bunch of little mewing kittens. I tell you-all if that strike comes on Klondike, Harper and Ladue will be millionaires.
It has saved your having to swallow a lot of your words on many occasions." All laughed good-naturedly. Though there was the most intense rivalry between the two government military schools, yet all were gentlemen, and the fun-making could not be permitted to go beyond the limits of ordinary teasing. "What's your line-up?" broke in Dan Dalzell.
"Dorothy is my best friend, next to Nan." "You have surely been among good friends," declared the mother, "for you have gotten the roses back in your cheeks again. How well you do look!" "Oh, I've had a perfectly fine time," declared Nellie. "Fine and dandy," repeated Dorothy, unable to restrain her fun-making spirit.
