"She certainly acted like a queen to Rosa," he thought once. For a moment he felt a wild desire to enter the gate, to see his home again, to make himself known but the next moment he knew that this was his punishment "to look, to long, but ne'er again to feel the warmth of home." He returned to the pool-room, his eyes more tired than ever, and found a seat in a far corner.
"Then there is to be a plunge bath big enough to swim in, open to men and women alternate nights, and to children every day. There will be a pool-room, card-room, and refreshment buffet; also a quiet little room for women's social events, and an emergency hospital ward.
"You ought to go once, Barney, if only to show the minister that you're rightly grateful to him for showing you about them there books and figures and a-pointing out your mistakes to you. And anyhow, if you don't go, you'll be hanging out in that there pool-room, and first thing you know you won't be decent and respectable and Billy'll have to fire you."
As Judge Ivory pocketed the money Dorsey and Flip Williams stepped into the pool-room. Sabota glanced up. "These Quarter Circle KT hombres are getting bad," he laughed sneeringly to Dorsey; "they think th' Ramblin' Kid's got a colt that can beat Thunderbolt!" "The Ramblin' Kid must have a hell of a fast horse!"
I I kind of wish you'd be on hand at the back door on Sunday mornin' when Simeon comes to take me away. You you're about the only real friend I've got, she says. "And off she went, for good this time. I pitied her, in spite of her bein' such a dough head. I knew what sort of a husband that pool-room shark would make. However, there wa'n't nothin' to be done.
There are many young men on earth who fail because they lack ambition and determination to advance. There are many more whose trouble is hasty ambition. They fail to realize their present chances in their hurried reaching out for something better. You may see in any club, pool-room or other resort for wasting time crowds of young men smoking and deploring their lack of success.
Then he broke a lamp in the pool-room that cost us two dollars." "Well, I hope you haven't overdone the thing." "On the whole, I guess not," Watson replied. "It's hard to hit the proper mark, but I reckon he's just drunk enough." "Then bring him up," said Stormont, and in a few minutes Watson came back with a young man.
The coin came down with heads up, and Shakespeare went into the pool-room, just to show the Fates that he didn't care a tuppence for their verdict as registered through the obolus. It was a peculiar custom of Shakespeare's to toss up a coin to decide questions of little consequence, and then do the thing the coin decided he should not do.
The crowd in the pool-room instinctively kept far back and gave the unequal combatants ample room. From Sabota's lips poured a steady torrent of blasphemy. The Ramblin' Kid made no sound as, with body swaying slowly from side to side, his shoulders heaved with the full, heavy breaths that reached to the bottom of his lungs. Suddenly, like some wild beast, Sabota sprang forward.
I'll never be a credit to anybody; and as for what I'm going to do go back to Greenville and loaf in Tim's pool-room, I suppose, and watch Hector's balloon." However, Hector's balloon seemed uninclined to soar, at the set-off though Hector didn't.
