Doggone my cats! wake me up w'en dat othah hoss comes in. "No, suh, I ain't gwine stay no longah, I don't app'ove o' racin', I's gwine 'roun' an' see dis hyeah bookmakah an' den I's gwine dreckly home, suh, dreckly home. I's Baptis' myse'f, an' I don't app'ove o' no sich doin's!" Seven There was a very animated discussion going on, on the lower floor of the house Number Ten "D" Street.
Far down the road the chorus came floating back to the listeners on the porch, "Merrily we roll along, roll along, roll along." "Wasn't it funny?" yawned Lloyd, as she went sleepily up the stairs. "But oh, I'm so tiahed. I believe if they had stayed much longah, I'd have fallen ovah in a heap on the flo'."
The Little Colonel went dashing around the house, from one room to another, calling out the news in the greatest excitement. "Have you heard it? Papa Jack's comin'! Grandfathah is goin' to stay several weeks longah, but Papa Jack's comin' on the noon train to-day!" Some one else came on that noon train, some one whom Doctor Fuller met in his buggy and took immediately up to Locust.
The youth with the water bag tried to speak, but at first words failed to come. The sight was too ghastly. "Heah's watah," he muttered finally. "Just just try and stand the pain fo' a little longah. I'll do all I can fo' yo'." He held the water bag at the swollen, blackened lips. Then he poured a generous portion of the contents over the shriveled eyes and skeletonlike face.
"Why, I know dozens of girls who would say that the tonic I am going to prescribe is the most agreeable that could be given. I've even had them beg for it. This is it, simply to lengthen your Christmas vacation. Didn't I hear a certain young lady wishing the other night that she could stretch hers out indefinitely?" Lloyd's dimples deepened. "How much longah will you make it? A week?
"Oh, deah," croaked the Little Colonel like a dismal raven, as she waited at the head of the stairs for the girls to finish dressing. "This is the la-st mawnin' well all go racin' down to breakfast togethah! I'm glad that Betty isn't goin' away for a while longah. If you all had to leave at the same time, it would be so lonesome that I couldn't stand it."
Distance drowned the words, but an earlier familiarity supplied them to the grossly syncopated measures of the tune which, soft and clear, stole in at the open window: "Rise in dat mawnin', an' rise in dat mawnin', Rise in dat mawnin', an' fall upon yo' knees. Bow low, an' a-bow low, an' a-bow low a little bit longah, Bow low, an' a-bow low; sich a conquerin' king!"
If I stay out much longah than that, it will be such hah'd work to catch up with my classes that the game won't be worth the candle." "But I would make it so long that there would be no necessity of having to catch up, as you call it. You could simply make a fresh start in a new class." Lloyd looked up in alarm. "When?" she demanded. "Um well, next fall, let us say," he answered, deliberately.
