"Don't call me that!" Kurt said, and gave Julia a stare that meant only one thing. "Move!" Uncle Justin yelled, pushing Julia out of the way. She stumbled and fell against the ticket counter. The artificial plant that had been just behind her disappeared. "Hold it!" the Director shouted. "Let's not get violent." "Why not?" asked Denny, stepping out of the emergency exit.
He was only familiar with this time and world; he had no desire to be sent into another one. Once Ross had made his decision, Kurt hurried him into action. Kurt's knowledge of the secret procedures at the base proved excellent.
Kurt left the sitting-room door open, and, turning, he asked Martha if his father had been to dinner. "No, an' what's more, when I called he takes to roarin' like a mad bull," replied the woman. Kurt crossed the sitting-room to knock upon his father's door. The reply forthcoming did justify the old woman's comparison. It certainly caused the hired men to evacuate the kitchen with alacrity.
Even if she is only brought up by simple Apollonie, she is more refined at bottom than a girl I know who adorns her outside with the most beautiful ribbons and flowers. I would rather have a single Loneli than a thousand Elviras." Lippo had been anxiously looking at Kurt for some time. "Here come the beans and you have your plate still full of soup," he said excitedly.
The soldiers ceased to salute him, and the officers ceased to seem aware of his existence, except Lieutenant Kurt.
Two miles of soft green wheat-slope lay between Lenore and her home. She had needed the loneliness and silence and memory of a place she had not visited for many months. Winter had passed. Summer had come with its birds and flowers. The wheat-fields were again waving, beautiful, luxuriant. But life was not as it had been for Lenore Anderson. Kurt Dorn, private, mortally wounded!
Kurt experienced a relaxation that was weakening. He could hardly hold the wheel and his mood became one of exaltation. "Father suspected this Ruenke," went on Lenore. "But he wanted to find out things from him. And I I undertook to twist Mr. Germany round my finger. I made a mess of it.... He lied. I didn't make love to him.
The slope was hot and still, with only a rustling of leaves in the wind. The air was dry. Kurt missed the sweet fragrance of wheat. What odor there was seemed to be like that of burning weeds. The great, undulating open of the Bend extended on three sides. His parents had spent the best of their lives there and had now been taken to the bosom of the soil they loved. It seemed natural.
Their volley completely drowned the desultory firing of Olsen's squad. Kurt began to wish for one of the shot-guns. It was this kind of weapon that saved Olsen's followers. There were a hundred chances to one of missing an I.W.W. with a single bullet, while a shot-gun, aimed fairly well, was generally productive of results. Kurt stopped wasting his cartridges.
I've met you. I know your voice.... Take your gang get out of here or we'll kill you!" This pregnant speech caused a blank dead silence. Then came a white flash, a sharp report. Kurt heard the thud of a bullet striking some one near him. The man cried out, but did not fall. "Spread out an' hide!" ordered Olsen. "An' shoot fer keeps!"
