They captured the entire twelfth floor, where we are, now, with the exception of the Ladies' Lingerie and Hosiery departments around one of the escalators to the lower floors; here the gang who started the riot, and who are now donning white hoods to distinguish themselves from the various other factions involved, have thrown up barricades of counters and display tables and are fighting bitterly to keep control of the escalator head.
I was not there to camp, to fish, or to loaf, and yet I did all these. There were some duties and work connected with the enterprise and these gave zest to the fishing and the loafing. Giant trees, space, and sky were my most intimate associates, and they told me only of big things. They had never a word to say of styles of clothing or becoming shades of neckwear or hosiery.
They belonged to a lower class of the bourgeoisie, retired shopkeepers, and a Red Republican is sworn to hate of the bourgeoisie, high or low; while a beautiful young author pushing his way into the Chaussee d'Antin does not proclaim to the world that his parents had sold hosiery in the Rue St. Denis. Nevertheless Savarin knew that Rameau had such parents still living, and took the hint.
"There," exclaimed Elizabeth Compton, as she sank back on the cushions of her car. "There what?" asked Harriet. "I have placed him." "Whom?"

I bid you good-morning". And with that she walked regally over to the glove counter, leaving red and grey and black hosiery to their own destinies. "I loathe them when their eyebrows go up," she fumed. "Now his weren't going up not even in his mind." She could not keep from worrying about him. "They'll just 'do' him," she was sure. "And then laugh at him in the bargain.
His food and drink, and the multitude of his small comforts; his friends and amusements; the renovation of his linen and hosiery; his hopes and fears, and his promotion or marriage, were enough to fill the mother's heart.

Indeed these were the only occasions when it was possible to purchase anything, indifferent hosiery excepted, from Mr. Potts.
