As he glanced at her now, she remembered her manners and dropped him a courtesy an electric, half-defiant jerk that reminded The Laird of a similar greeting customarily extended by squinch-owls. Nan was not particularly clean, and her one-piece dress, of heavy blue navy-uniform cloth was old and worn and spotted. Over this dress she wore a boy's coarse red-worsted sweater with white-pearl buttons.
Private Reynolds, whose trousers are held in place by a wonderful mechanism composed of shoe-laces and bits of string, receives a pair; likewise, Private Stenebras, who, with the aid of safety pins, has fashioned coat and trousers into an ingenious one-piece garment.
First Citizen Yaggo, People's Manager-in-Chief of and for the Planetary Commonwealth of Aditya, wore a one-piece white garment like a mechanic's coveralls, with the emblem of his government and the numeral 1 on his breast. He carried no dagger; if he had worn a dress weapon, it would probably have been a slide rule. His head was completely shaven, and he had small, pale eyes and a rat-trap mouth.
During the drive to the Gresham home, which stood on the side of the mountain at the extreme southern end of the city Evelyn did about a hundred and one per cent of the talking.

They gave them replacements for all the things that had been taken away from them. They gave the man a one-piece suit of Marine combat coveralls; Lillian gave the woman a lavender bathrobe, and Anna contributed a red scarf.

She had on a gray, one-piece street dress; a simple, round, straw hat with a small black ribbon.
There are, of course, occasions to which it is unsuited. One-piece must be understood to mean the pièce de resistance the backbone of subsistence as it were.
Ray's little smile grew a trifle more uncertain. " I had the money last week I was going to The baby took sick the heat I guess, coming so sudden. We had the doctor and medicine I Say, your own folks come before black one-piece dresses!" Miss Jevne's cold eyes saw the careful patch under Ray's left arm where a few days before the torn place had won her a reproof. It was the last straw.
There was a lovely rug which Mrs. Knox had sent her on the tenth anniversary of her association with the office. Mrs. Knox looked upon Mary as a valuable business asset. She invited her once a year to dinner. Nannie wore her blue serge one-piece frock and a new winter hat. The hat was a black velvet tam. "You need something to brighten you up," Mary said; "take my beads."
"What would you do," Lee asked, "if I spent my spare time with the very young ones?" "I'd have a doctor see you," she replied coolly. "What in the world put that in your head? Haven't you everything here a man could want? That's exactly what they were talking about; it's so so idiotic. Those younger girls ought to be smacked and put to bed, with their one-piece swimming-suits and shimmying.
