Naskowski, as the class broke up for the brief interval, found chance to whisper a suggestion that she postpone it till the next rest, and Patricia eagerly agreed. "I'll go look up my sister and tell her," she said. "We can smuggle her into the clay room, too, to see your work, can't we? I know she'd be crazy to get a glimpse of it, and then she might get a snap-shot at the fun in here."
"I have already gotten some splendid pictures," returned Powell, who possessed a good snap-shot camera, now lying on the stern seat of the boat. "I'm going to take some more pictures to-day." On the way to the upper end of the lake Sam did a little fishing and brought in one bass of fair size.
As a matter of fact I had been taking a few photographs of the place. Pretty place, sir. 'Very, agreed the Head. 'You photograph yourself, perhaps? 'No. I ah do not. 'Ah. Pity. Excellent hobby. However I took a snap-shot of this man to show to somebody who might know him better than I did. This is the photograph. Drunk as a lord, is he not? He exhibited a small piece of paper.
"She's beautiful. She IS a type, just as you said, old man, a really wonderful type. I saw her yesterday and the day before." "I've been wondering how you managed to get a likeness of her on the back of an envelope," said Leslie sarcastically. "Must have had a good long look at her, my boy. It isn't a snap-shot, you know." Booth flushed. "It is an impression, that's all.

He sent an army to recover the lost English possessions in France, but in this was unsuccessful.
He had time to burst from the hut and race across the clearing through the darkness which would surely shelter him from the snap-shot of even such an expert as Red Jim, but in mind and body Hervey was too paralyzed by the appearance of his enemy to stir until he saw Perris slip from his horse, slumping to the earth after the fashion of a weary man, and drag off the saddle.
I was always very fond of shooting, and had acquired the reputation of being a good snap-shot among the rabbits, and my skill now stood me in good stead. The kneeling figure was instantly covered; I pulled the trigger, and he leapt convulsively to his feet, staggered forward, and fell upon his face. I had no sooner fired than some twenty natives sprang from their cover, and ran towards us.
"There, it's beginning to come out of the door, the smoke, I mean!" exclaimed the anxious Bud. "I want to get a snap-shot of the event when the bear rushes out," said Hugh; "because there are a lot of fellows these days who want to see the proof every time you tell them a story that seems out of the common run.
It seems to take a lifetime for us to learn that wisdom consists largely in a graceful acceptance of things that do not immediately concern us." "How like you," she responded, with a touch of her old manner. "I ask for comfort and you give me an epigram." "Many people find satisfaction in epigrams," he reminded her.
