I find, after having tried nearly every sort of shoe for tennis, that the simple white gymnasium shoe suits me best. Most players use a proper tennis shoe or boot with a thick sole. I have tried these, but find they make me much slower in court and are not as comfortable as the "gym" shoe.
"Hurry up, Jean, or we shall get in before you do." "You sophomore ushers look like a St. Patrick's Day parade." "Tell the people in there that their clocks are slow." "All right," said Jean, hanging on to her unmanageable paper hat. As she passed the end of the line, Beatrice Egerton detached herself from it, and followed her around the corner of the gym. "Oh, Miss Eastman," she coaxed.
The call was for three o'clock Thursday afternoon, at the gym. "Humph!" was the audible and only comment of Bayliss, as he stood before the school bulletin board at recess and read the announcement. "I guess the day for football here has gone by," observed Porter sneeringly. "Of interest to ragamuffins only," sneered Paulson, as he turned away to join Fremont of the senior class.
When the boys got back to the Hall they found that the majority of their friends had gone to bed.

When the News got out all the sis-boom-ah Boys gave a Parade in their Nighties. The Faculty called a Special Meeting and made Brad a Doctor of Philosophy. Next Year he put up for a Gym and they made him a Doctor of Divinity. The Year Following he handed them a Telescope and became an LL.D. Every time he coughed he was made some new kind of Doctor.
"Yes, Massa Archy, dem's um in de gym shum. Dat's jes what I say, massa in de gym-shum." "Go up and get them; and mind you don't keep me waiting all day," continued Archy, who was not equal to the effort of making the boy pronounce the word correctly.
