On the left the 180th Brigade lent support, and at four o'clock the 2/21st and 2/24th Londons rushed the ridge with the bayonet and drove off the Turks, who left seventy dead behind them.
Still, I daresay there would be something to complain of even then, and perhaps it would not be very dignified to go off the stage as a baby! To go to the opposite extreme, there are the fashionable water-places; little Londons, or rather little imitations of London; for beside that great capital itself they are like pieces of glass to a diamond.
Ants live in communities which might be likened to a hundred Londons dotted about England, so are their nests in a meadow, or, still more striking, on a heath. Their immense crowds, the population of China to an acre, do not breed disease. Every ant out of that enormous multitude may calculate on a certain average duration of life, setting aside risks from battle, birds, and such enemies.
And it is a racial stock that shows no signs of dying out. What then? I suppose indeed there must be backward races, to house backward egos; though for that matter you would think that our Londons and Chicagos and the rest, with their slums, would provide a good deal of accommodation.
And there's more Gopher Prairies than there are Chicagos. Or Londons. And I'll tell you the whole story: They think you're showing off when you say 'American' instead of 'Ammurrican. They think you're too frivolous. Life's so serious to them that they can't imagine any kind of laughter except Juanita's snortling. Ethel Villets was sure you were patronizing her when " "Oh, I was not!"
