Ford nodded approvingly. "Speed is what we are paying for, and we're thankful to get it whenever, and wherever, we can. Is the bridge timber coming down all right now?" "Yes; and we are getting plenty of ties since the major put on his war-paint and went after the MacMorrogh subs in the tie-camps. It is the rock work that is holding us back." Ford nodded again.
Immediately after the sound had died away, a hush fell upon the great room as the senior manager stepped forward and announced: "For the official sophomore team the following players have been chosen: Adrienne Dupree, Barbara Temple, Christine Ellis, Jane Allen, and Marian Seaton. To act as subs: Olive Hurst and Marjory Upton."
We've just got to build up the team." Polly was very serious. "I'm worried." "Who about?" "Eleanor Trent; she can't get used to girls' rules, and she makes fouls all the time." "Who subs for her?" "Katherine Welbe, and she's no earthly good." "Come on, then; let's see who's playing now," Betty gave in resignedly. They went to the gym and sat down in the first row in the gallery.
"And well we know how to guard it, captin!" cried the same ominous voice; and there was a buzz from the length of the company. The captain and the two subs. came together behind the marching line. "They seem a bit out of hand," murmured the captain. "Bedad," said the Galway boy, "they mean to scoot like redshanks." "They nearly broke when the blacks showed on the hill," said Grice.
You would take anything? All right. I'll see Dodgson to-night. I know he was thinking of sacking one of the subs, and he might take you on. I'll leave a note here for you if I don't see you again. Of course, the pay is rotten, as I suppose you know." Jimmy was so full of his conversation with Kelly that he had forgotten all about Lalage's promised surprise which was awaiting him at the flat.
One or two subs' wives declared that they would not visit Mrs Bridgeman; but when the colonel and his lady called to congratulate the new-married couple, and invited a large party in their own house to meet them, then then subs' wives left their cards as soon as they could.
Ikey favored his friend with a sly wink, but only said crisply: "I don't know about it. I was going to wash the store windows. Where are Whistler and Torry going?" "As far as Blue Reef. They say the bass are schoolin' out there." "They'd better be on the lookout for subs, as far out as the Reef," Ikey said solemnly. "I don't believe they've got this coast half patrolled.
The class teams had not yet been chosen, but every Wednesday and Saturday afternoon l9 's last year's "regulars" and "subs" met in the gymnasium to play exciting matches. Of course there were some changes in the make- up of the teams.
"Not yet, thank God. We must steer clear of camp, if the thing can be done. But the fever's bad enough. They're dropping like flies in the city, poor devils. Our hospital's crammed; and two 'subs' on the sick-list at well as Wyndham. He's going on all right now; but goodness knows when he'll be fit for duty." "I want to see Mackay about getting him over here as soon as possible.
