Harris silently took the chair at his senior's side and Archer continued: "If it would contribute to your strength as much as your peace of mind, I'd send you over in the forbidden ambulance, my boy" how the voice trembled at the word that so often, so constantly in bygone days, was on his lips! "but Bentley says 'not yet' not even for a week, so what can an old fellow do?"
That will give me time to make memoranda of things I may have forgotten." Howland fancied that there was a certain tone of relief in the senior's voice, but he made no mention of it to the superintendent as they walked swiftly to the scene of the "blow-out." The coyote was ready for firing when they arrived.
"I'll go over," Chia Lien said. "All I have to do is to find out our venerable senior's wishes, as to whether she means to go to Lai Ta's house on the fourteenth, so that I might have time to get the chairs ready. As I'll be able to tell Madame Hsing to return, and have a share of the fun, won't it be well for me to go?"
The house didn't smell old. It smelled new. It smelled like sawdust and fresh-hewn lumber as bright and blond as a high school senior's crewcut. He walked across the flowered carpet. The carpet didn't mind footsteps or bright sun. It never became worn or faded. It grew brighter with the years, the roses turning redder, the sunflowers becoming yellower.
I'll give you the biggest hiding you ever had in your life." He would probably have carried out his threat, and Riddell would probably before half a minute have given up all further idea of non- resistance, when an opportune diversion occurred in the person of Telson, who appeared with the remainder of his late senior's possessions from the schoolhouse.
The passage is given in full in Malthus and his Work, p. 307. Eden had made the same remark. Correspondence in Senior's Three Essays on Population . Mr. The difference is not for my purpose important. In any case, Malthus's references are to Paley. Ibid. i. 16 n. Essay, i. 15 n. Ibid. ii. 128. Mr. A. R. Wallace, Darwin's fellow-discoverer of the doctrine, also learned it from Malthus.
Fortunately they did not have much time to wonder at the coming change in their lives, for there are many events that crowd themselves into the last few weeks of a Senior's school life, occupying most of her time. To-day was a particularly busy one. There was a Senior class meeting to decide on the Senior play. The photographer was coming to take the class picture.
The point of view of the veteran is, naturally, not that of the novice, particularly in politics. That the enthusiasms of Lieutenant-Governor Barclay should have been the disillusions of Governor Abbott, and his pitfalls his senior's stepping-stones, this was to be expected. The root of their dissimilarity lay deeper.
"Hullo, Nancy Nelson!" she said, cheerfully, putting her hand upon the younger girl's shoulder. "What did you want to be such a perfect little brick for?" "I I don't know what you mean?" quoth Nancy, shrinking under the senior's touch. "Why, if you'd told Madame Schakael all about it the other night when she caught you in Number 40, do you suppose she would have punished you so harshly?"
But a senior's life is busy and taken up with its own affairs, and for the next week or two Patty saw little of the freshman beyond an occasional chat in the corridors. One evening she and Priscilla had returned late from a dinner in town, to be confronted by a dark room and an empty match-safe.
