'It is a record, said Psmith, 'of the meeting of an institution called the Tulse Hill Parliament. A bright, chatty little institution, too, if one may judge by these reports. You in particular, if I may say so, appear to have let yourself go with refreshing vim. Your political views have changed a great deal since those days, have they not? It is extremely interesting.
He wanted Aunt Kirsty when that pain came into his arm, more than he wanted all the gold of all the rainbows he had ever seen. He bent to his paddle with much less vim, and slowly and painfully round the island he came, and out into the open lake. And then, where, oh, where, was the pot of gold? And where was the rainbow?
The multitude enjoyed its sharp, short, stinging paragraphs; its vim and vehemence. At length its columns were turned against Major Selover with unrestrained virulence. He had no equal means of reply or defence at his command, but he had at last uttered threats of personal nature, and published King as a liar, a swindler and a coward. To all this Mr.
"Let's try it again." The boys bent to their work, but they had lost their vim, and they did not strike their pace again. "I don't understand about Monkey," began Jack, as they drew into the landing. "There is something back of all this, and I mean to find out what it is." "What have you been doing," cried Pepper, who was waiting for them on the landing, "fishing?" "No; monkeying," answered Rand.
"Clear as mud," said Jimsy ruefully; but his tone robbed the words of any humorous significance. "You have reached a decision, Mr. Bell?" asked Roy. The boy had not spoken yet. Mr. Bell's mouth closed in a firm line and his chin came out in what Peggy described to herself as "a fighting bulge." "Yes," he said with characteristic vim, "I have.
Brimblecom perused a few more lines, when again she spoke. "She seems ter 'have little energy, wal, I don't want ter be mean, but I can't help a hopin' that she won't gain any. Sabriny without energy would be er sight that'd cheer me. Her tremenjous vim nearly wore me aout last season. Ef she'd jest manage ter leave her energy ter hum, I do'no's I'd mind her comin'." While good Mrs.
I was billeted close to some of them on the Somme; they were always the same whether in or out of the line." He hit the nail on the head. The Canadians had the vim, the dogged determination; they would not submit to defeat, even in sport. My mention of lack of sight among the men might seem superfluous to those who have not pulled on a tug-of-war team.
Jack left Garry on the Jersey side and crossed alone. The boy loved the salt air in his face and the jewelled lights flashed from the ever-restless sea. He loved, too, the dash and vim of it all.
In a terror of defense Kenny returned to the fray with added vim. But Adam had a deftness with his barbs that his opponent lacked. Compassion drove the younger man to restraint. And Adam did not scruple to hide behind the bulwark of his own debility.
"They have put the colts in," cried Mistress Betsy with glee, and Mistress Polly was at the door crying, "Come on." "Great Jove!" said I to myself, as I seized my hat and followed after, for though I had driven many a wild team I had never done so through a town before. And four devils they were for a certainty, a little under size, but making up for that by the fire and vim of their proceedings.
