They were really white pop-corn balls, but at first they looked like snowballs. The children caught on at once, and soon two or three dozen balls were whizzing from each to each, and they had the jolliest game! The balls were too light to hurt if they hit them, yet solid enough to throw well. To be sure, they broke to bits after many tosses, but the game lasted a half hour, and then Mr.
His frame, sturdy rather than tall, was nevertheless lithe, and he made a fine figure to look at, so Agnes thought, as she came out a moment and bowed and smiled to both the young men. This scene, one of the jolliest and most sociable of the western farm, had a charm quite aside from human companionship.
It was the jolliest possible idea. He wrote back enthusiastically about it and always after Effie was installed inquired after her in his letters. But Mabel did not reply to these inquiries. He was writing regularly to Nona and regularly hearing from her. He never could quite make out where she was, addressing her only to her symbol in the Field post-office.
"Nellie Laning is coming out, and so is Grace," said Tom. "When?" questioned Dick. "They have already started, according to the letter I have," put in Sam. "Boys, I think we can have just the jolliest time ever was when the girls are all together." "Right you are," came from Tom. "What a pity we had to have that robbery to darken our fun." "I am not going to let it darken my fun," said Dick.
It's the jolliest book that was ever written, ever so much better than `Sandford and Merton. There's a bit in it about some boys playing truant from school, and they go hunting after a corncrake, as they call it there, and get into no end of trouble, and jump over a hedge into a garden, and break the glass, and get taken before a magistrate. Oh! I did like that book so.
The pond is so sheltered that the wind scarcely affected us, and a staff of sweepers cleared away the snow as fast as it fell. Afterwards, when it cleared up and the sun shone through the trees, it was absolutely magnificent. It's the jolliest day I've had on the ice for years, though I'm almost knocked up by it. Jovially fatigued, in fact. But where have you been?"
When out of official harness, the members of the Cabinet were all men with a sunny, fun-loving side. Judge Key was, perhaps, the jolliest, though the Attorney-General pushed him hard for that distinction. Secretary Thompson was a proverbial lover of a pleasant joke, while Secretary Schurz was hardly equalled in telling one. Secretary McCrary was a good story-teller.
Before Peter could say a word, there was a splash in the Smiling Pool, and Grandfather Frog was nowhere to be seen. "I I don't see how they do it," said Peter, shaking his head in a puzzled way as he slowly hopped towards the dear Old Briar-patch. Little Joe Otter was having the jolliest kind of a time. Little Joe Otter is a jolly little chap, anyway, and just now he was extra happy.
Her eyes shone, soft in their brightness, and her lips were red with the leaping blood of youth. She had turned to speak with Mrs. Sturgis, the stoutest, jolliest and altogether most motherly woman in the valley, and Mrs. Sturgis, watching her eyes and lips and paying no attention to her words, put out her plump hands suddenly, crying heartily: "You pretty little mouse!
Bill sat himself down, and set the chair creaking as he turned it about facing her. He held out his hands. "I haven't seen the manicuring racket right, yet," he laughed. Helen stretched out her two hands toward him for inspection. He promptly seized them in his, and pretended to examine them. "The prettiest, softest, jolliest " But the girl snatched them away.
