Gustus saw the Ring, that great green breast of the country, against the broken evening sky, and said, "Now I see heights, and I shall never be happy or hungry till I have climbed them. The Lord made me so that I am never content until I am as near the sky as possible. Silly, no doubt. But what a sky! Blood-red and pale pink, what a unique chord of colour."
Not work for the poor, but work with the poor. At home I talked about work, and Anonyma wrote about it, and Cousin Gustus shuddered at it. You were doing it all right, but where was I? Three days a week with soldiers' wives. My brow never sweated a drop. I thought there must be something better than a bird's-eye view of work. So I took a job at a bolster place.... Oh well, it doesn't matter now.
By day a short-order cook, by night he played in 'Gustus Hillman's Colored String Band. It is to be marked down in the reader's memory that the instrument he played was the saxophone; also that he was heavily impregnated with that form of professional jealousy which lurks in the souls of so many artistes; likewise that he was a member in fair standing of the Rev.
Thus nothing Fate can send, And nothing Fate can do Shall pierce your peace, my friend. Christina the motor car started next morning. She set her tyres on the road to the Secret World. For all the clues that Jay provided pointed to that region. "Here is another letter from Jay," said Mrs. Gustus as they started, bristling with clues.
"So few women really understand how to stop a child crying," said Cousin Gustus, speaking from bitter and universal experience. "That's the point," said Kew. "The child had probably swallowed a pin." It generally breaks my heart to hear a story spoilt, but with Anonyma's word-vignettes I did not mind, because they were told as true, and yet they did not ring true.
''Ow was I to know that, Dr Glossop? I couldn't tell. My finding 'im there murdered was quite enough for me. So I runs downstairs, and I nips 'old of 'Gustus Barley, what was leaning against the wall, and I says to him, "'Gustus Barley, run to the station as fast as you can and tell 'em that a man's been murdered, that Harab's been and killed a bloke."
And the rain does nothing towards improving matters. They say the German guns bring on the rain. I tell you there is no limit to their guilt. Look at this morning's paper: 'The enemy bombarded this section of our front with increasing intensity during the day.... I ask you, IS THAT WAR?" "Yes," said Mr. Russell absently. "Nonsense," said Cousin Gustus.
In spite of the camping trip, Lydia saw little of her campmates. Charlie did not reenter school in the fall. Olga and Gustus were devoted to each other and, to Lydia's surprise, Kent took Margery to several parties. "I thought you liked Gustus best," she said to Margery one Saturday afternoon late in the fall. Lydia was calling on Margery and the two were making fudge. "Oh, that was last year!
Once there was a monkey " "No, a ape." "Well, a ape, then. But I didn't start right. Once Mr. 'Gustus Allen sailed round the world." "Did? Who sailed him?" "O, he went in one of those ships that go puffing out of the bay. And he had a little ape, named Jacky." "How did you know? You wasn't there." "O, he told me about it. He was the brightest little creature, Jacky was. When he was cold, Mr.
If you had, I'd call you Little Pitcher, for 'little pitchers have great ears. That makes me think of Mr. Allen, auntie. How big his ears are, you know? Is it because his teacher pulled them so?" "O, call him 'Gustus," cried Prudy. "But that would soon be Gusty," said aunt Madge, "and would sound too much like the east wind."
