Barbie did just exactly what of Cast Steel played her to do. She was too red-blooded to let an outsider see 'at she'd been bad hurt; so she brazened up an' laughed an' danced an' sang, an' showed 'em games they hadn't never dreamt of before. Most of 'em went home by Sunday night, but Hawthorn was prevailed upon to stay a week longer.

Ditmar had not apologized or feigned an altruism for which she would indeed have despised him. The ruthlessness of his laugh the laugh of the red-blooded man who makes laws that he himself may be lawless shook her with a wild appeal. "What do I care about any others I want you!" such was its message.

The suppression of this yarn would have obsessed you, lain on your reportorial conscience. "I don't suppose your salary is much over thirty a week, is it? Now, then, here you are in for a touch of real adventure, better than gleaning dock gossip, to a red-blooded man. If we win and you saw the gold you win. We expect to give you a share.

Duncan McBride was chief mechanic in the garage repairshop.

She belonged to the dead-language scholars, not to crude red-blooded creatures like himself. He turned his face to the west and the threatening sky seemed in harmony with his storm-riven soul.

Between ten and eleven o'clock the lights on the valley floor blinked out; the town had gone to bed that is, the lights blinked out in all homes excepting those on the eastern outskirts, where nervous people worried over the possibilities of a hungry, hunted convict's burglarizing their premises, or drawn-faced mothers lived mentally through a score of calamities befalling red-blooded sons who had now been absent twenty-four hours.

You may recall that in a former chapter I mentioned the opinion that David was the kind of a fellow any red-blooded boy would like.
