He swung about with almost electrical swiftness as his final words came with a low, biting emphasis. And his movement was in response to the swift opening of the door of the office. John Kars was standing in its framing. It was a moment of intensity such as rarely fails to leave a landmark in the lives of those concerned.
And one year from now, I will convene the leaders of Congress to craft historic bipartisan legislation to achieve a landmark for our generation, a Social Security system that is strong in the 21st century.

It rolled in, layer on layer, while I felt for the landing; but I managed to find the place and picked up the trail we had worn packing over the ice.

I caught a glimpse of a very peculiarly shaped cliff it is like a great head, standing out in bold relief against the moonlight, when I saw it. That head of rock is near the cave. It may be the landmark by which we can locate Phantom Mountain." "Perhaps," admitted the young inventor. "What I want to know is this," went on Mr. Jenks.
Nowhere in our journey in southern Mexico had we met with the kind of scenery which we encountered between Magdalena and Tlaxiaco; its whole character was like that of New Mexico. Directly behind the town was a fine cart-road, worn in red sand pumice; before the town rose a magnificent cliff, which had been a landmark in our journey of the day before.
The reddish soil thus exposed marked the winding line athwart the field, through the tussocky bunches.
