"Chet et supper with us the night of the concert and took Nettie and I to the hall, and you bet I wedged them two close in next each other when we got to our seats. This was my star play.

"Do you know how long we've been here?" he asked one morning as they sat facing each other at breakfast. "A week! "Shucks!" said Julius thoughtfully. "I'd almost forgotten about the 29th.

"Shucks," he said in a tone of great surprise when Swing shot round the corner of the hotel, "I shore thought there was a dog there a-teasin' that boot.

"Seventeen! My land! Why, I wouldn't set out such a string as that, not if I NEVER got to glory. It must take 'em a week." "Shucks, they don't ALL of 'em preach the same day only ONE of 'em." "Well, then, what does the rest of 'em do?" "Oh, nothing much. Loll around, pass the plate and one thing or another. But mainly they don't do nothing." "Well, then, what are they FOR?"
If the keeper's income kept up that way it was clear he could go back to Spain by-and-by with stateliness pretty respectable, and I says to myself: "Why, the Injuns are happy, and the keeper's going to be, and I'm a sinner, and Craney can look after his own conscience. Shucks! He hasn't got any." It made me feel virtuous to think how Craney had no conscience. Maybe he hadn't.
The major listened for a moment. Then he turned again. "I thought I heerd somebody holler!" he explained cautiously. They both bent forward and listened once more.

I don't believe yeh heerd anythin'."

"Fer lan' sakes, Willie Case, you come right out o' this house this minute ef you got anything in your head." She made a grab for Willie's arm; but the boy dodged and reached the telephone. "Shucks!" he cried.

She certainly wouldn't feel bitter toward the Americans because the Russians burned their town and killed her father, would she?" "Poor Veronica," said Gladys softly. "She's in a hard position and I don't envy her. I love her dearly, even if her country is our enemy." "Shucks!" exclaimed Sahwah. "Veronica isn't to blame because her country is at war. She isn't our enemy.
